Diego Simeone

[PhilS]

It's official. Simeone has renewed his contract until 2020.

This is the signing of the year. The impact of any particular coach on a team is generally overrated. But not in the case of Chollo with ATM.

Unless he goes the Klopp route next season.

Great news for Atletico! Happy to hear it, too

It would be cool if he would manage Argentina at some point. I really believe he could take them to another final.

Tata ain't going to cut it if the Argies are serious about 2018

A solid, well balanced team is more important than a world class manager. Even an amateur manager like Löw won the World Cup title.

Although it's obvious Simeone would improve their chances massively and I'd love to see Messi win the WC. Maybe 2022...

If he doesn't win one of the two upcoming Copa Americas, he's gone IMO.

How about they start focusing winning matches against everyone, not just give 200% against us? That way they would still be in the title race and wouldnt have to resort to penalties vs Neverkusen.

It is a derby after all.

I hope he stays there for life. Best manager & club combo since Pep & FCB. Plus this means that he has faith in Atletico's set up and vision moving forward. Maybe they'll stop being a selling club after the Chinese guy bought out their debt? In any case, Forza Cholo! Aupa Atleti!

This man

Season after season his Atleti are underestimated and yet he always delivers

By who?

There's a reason why most people doesn't claim that La Liga isn't a two-horse league anymore since long...

By majority of people out there. Outside Spain in particular

I love you Diego

It'd be true before 2013-14 season, but not anymore.

Atlético are considered as a top 5 team in Europe.

They're clearly not underated.

What Simeone has done at Athletico all this years is just unbelieveable! I m sure not even Pep or Mou would be so successful with that squad!

Just the fact that they play an aging Torres vs RM and still manage to win is incrediblexD
