you would still complain about having two passengers upfront... it's evident that Messi and Suarez can't play together at this stage of their careers.

new coach this season. maybe, maybe not.
what we DO know is that suarez can still score 10+ goals in the league, and that we have dropped points numerous times this season because we couldnt find a goal, even against much weaker teams.
ultimately, youre correct that the mistake was not necessarily letting suarez go, but not replacing him properly. that said, given our finances, we couldnt really replace him properly (clearly braithwaite doesnt count). if thats the case then we could have used luis, for the league

Why? He had great 60 minutes and was terrible afterwards.
I am still glad hes gone, even if he wins the title. Our games are finally enjoyable again (not that this is solely on Suarez).

he'll clinch the title against us, it's already written.
It's already been explained 500 times why moving on from Suarez was the logical thing to do, no matter if he scores 0 or 50 goals for Atletico.

No. I am saying the opposite. People were saying how Suarez was winning Atletico la liga. But now since things dont seem so sure it has gotten quiet.
Precisely. Some players can look finished in one system but still work great in another. Barca have had many examples of these players.

To bad for them and good for us that he still cant pass the ball he had so many golden chances to puy a at madrid players one on one with the keeper but he just cant pass the ball.

Didn’t watch first half yesterday so just seen his goal now, unreal finish, cool as you like. He was missing them for fun for us last season. Would love to see comparison in his shots per goal ratio and big chances missed from this season to last, because he was ahead of the big chances missed chart by far in 19/20.

* A slightly higher shot/90 this year compared to last
* Very similar non penalty xG/90
* The same amount of goals in 250min less so far this season
With regards to xG, he scored 3,76 more goals than expected on the shots he took this year, last year the same number was 1,83. So he still overperformed on his shots last year, only not as much.
With Suarez, he shoots from some stupid or at least unusual places, with a low xG, and sometimes scores from there. I think this must skew his xG-stats. But overall, the stats on that page looks surprisingly similar.
