Champions League thread 2013/14

Simeone is a pretty damn good manager.

He played with 4 cm's at home lat week (Gabi, Garcia, Koke, Suarez) and all are defensive minded although two have some ability going forward. He did this to keep a clean sheet....that was the only objective they had....to keep a clean sheet at home because they were so confident they would score at the Bridge.

Fast forward 1 week and they switch to an attacking 3 ...away in a CL semi final. No wonder they celebrated last week like they were ecstatic about the result. A great game plan.
 
Atleti. Story of the year.

Be a hell of a double if they swing it, scruffy and unfashionable side knocking off the biggest moneyed teams in Spain and England.

Their Vicente Calderon stadium is a hoot, if you ever get there. They've got a four-lane motorway running under one stand.

Loving Sky saying CFC need more players, no just buy the right ones rather than players you dont need to stop other teams getting them

They are utter ****s
 
How good were AM before Simeone came along? Has he totally transformed them? And are these players home grown at the club or purchases?

A decent side finishing around 5/6th on average. Simeone has taken them to the next level over the time he has been there, he's managed to get some average players to up their level and he's done well to not let some major player departures disrupt the side, plus he's also been fortunate to have had access to some great youth players coming through the academy.
 
I saw a couple of groups of AM fans in town today and went up to them and wished them good luck. I hope that they smash Franco's club in the final.

I was thinking about this during the discussion in the AVB thread earlier.
