The Official 2014/15 Premier League Thread

Re: The "Official" 2014/15 Other teams matches thread

For those that have watched La Liga, and in particular Atletico Madrid under Simeone, what would you say are the tactical similarities and differences between Simeone and Mourinho?

I find it interesting that Mourinho seems to have particularly targeted signings from Athletico this summer; I wonder if they'll thrive or hot plateaus under Mourinho's tactics:-k

i think many will be shocked if Chelski dont walk the league this season....the point about targeting signings from A Madrid is a valid one, those players will just slot into Chelski without any fuss and i think Mourinho will get more out of someone like Costa. He has the potential to be a beast in this league

The lottery winners MK II will ensure they don't walk it but it'll be close. Feeling very confident of my 2/1 dual forecast bet for the two.

I think that Athletico and Mourinho have quite different approaches but Mourinho has always liked physical/athletic players and I think that it is this, rather than tactics that attracted him to them.

Interesting. Can you go into more detail on what you feel the differences are?

Never good to hear. Still at least we don't have to face the Scottish Messi for a whole again. This guy destroys us every time lol
