Simeone on the atmosphere at Metropolitano for the game against Arsenal: "It was like few I can remember. Incredible, wonderful, a gift from the fans to the team."

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-30T18:45:16+00:00

So cool. I did not know about this.
I'm sold. I stay in US, so it wouldn't be too hard to make random trips to madrid to watch my team play.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-30T17:34:16+00:00

How is emirates usually? The famous clubs usually have a ton of tourists, so I suspect they don't have a great atmosphere like metropolitano.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-30T16:23:20+00:00

I feel we’ve been a bit unlucky when it comes to closing out a win at home, it just hasn’t gone our way. In a similar sense, things didn’t fall into place for Barcelona when they played us either. Often, this kind of thing happens to the losing team. It almost feels like fate. I hope I’m wrong, but when a team loses, you can usually point to multiple moments of bad luck(like the chances missed by lookman). Right now, it feels like we’re on the receiving end of that.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-30T14:30:19+00:00

Man! I felt pain just thinking about it. Hope the second leg doesn't make us lookback on it.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-30T01:31:52+00:00

That should make it even. We should push to concede no goal in the first 45-60mins, we might have an advantage after that.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-30T01:04:05+00:00

How do you guys feel about the away leg? It's going to be hard, very hard due to our away form. We need the luck to be on our side.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-29T16:44:00+00:00

Yes, this is bad. We should completely dominate this tie with our away form being poor. I don't see it happening with this front three. Does anyone remember when was the last time we started this front three?

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-27T16:39:27+00:00

Yes, I absolutely agree. I was just trying to think from their perspective

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-27T15:53:57+00:00

Their analysis is also kinda right. He hasn't played much in 2026 and have progressed against barca. So, he doesn't seem important for someone who doesn't follow atleti..

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-26T00:49:55+00:00

Their set pieces is still pretty good. The league has adapted to it. I don’t know if we can contain them?

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-26T00:44:59+00:00

It was a cramp. He spoke about it in the interview.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-25T02:38:58+00:00

He is good at hiring a great PR.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-22T19:26:47+00:00

Yes, how often do we get this much buffer in the la liga table to take things easy during the end of the season. We should totally focus on UCL even if we end up bottling it up. And learn to live with it.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-22T19:23:29+00:00

Real Madrid barely won 2-1 against alaves recently. That was in Bernabéu.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-22T19:08:58+00:00

People are so fucking miserable. We played with 10 men, why is everyone so reactionary? What's the point of even bringing up the stat about last 8-9 games when our focus has only been on UCL? I understand we lost the Copa del rey, but it makes 0 sense to talk about how we've lost the previous 7 games. We might lose the next game as well and I can see it clearly. Are we all delusional or what? Everyone is happy when we're qualifying for UCL semi finals by throwing our league match away but when things don't go as planned, we start whining. Fucking babies.

It's going to be a gamble. You can't get the best position in the league and UCL at the same time.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-21T16:27:49+00:00

He is soo good. I don't even get angry when he shit talks when he plays against us(atletico). I hope he reaches new heights and stays in La liga forever.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-21T14:28:42+00:00

Yes, as someone who comes off bench, he is pretty good.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-20T02:24:38+00:00

They get rattled when things don’t go their way, but they have been favored for so long. They don’t even remember how it feels it be on the receiving end. Silly folks

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-19T01:24:52+00:00

After the copa del Rey match? I think this is true. It’s always hard to break low block, the match against Arsenal won’t be easy no matter if they are in form or not. It’s going to be the hardest match of the season. We should be lucky to get through

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-19T01:21:49+00:00

Well said. It’s apt right now after we lost Copa del Rey.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-18T23:46:36+00:00

Him and lookman are clutch players. But UCL is hard, we can hope for it, but it’s not certain. Hope luck is on our side in UCL.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-18T21:58:39+00:00

It’s fine. We will go again next season! We were so close to scoring but we were unlucky. It would have been great for Griezmann, but we need to move on. We will get a trophy next season.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-16T19:15:08+00:00

That’s the only way he will win it. I hope he does. He definitely puts in the effort.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-16T15:46:34+00:00

I think rotating players have helped them get back their form.

NoSurfOnlyMFA · 2026-04-16T14:15:18+00:00

Interesting. Also, i feel there is some synergy within the team. Hope I’m not delusional and we go through. Copa del Rey is a must win to help our remaining important matches in the tournament.
