New tactical 550
City need to score first that's all they need to advance.
dan Tomas trying to make us care about levante vs cadiz. Calm down pal.
ATM will knock City out. They aren’t cutting the grass and stopped watering the pitch for a week
Atletico Madrid are the masters of Satan Ball. ?
9 defenders,
0 Midfielders,
1 striker???
Theres zero chance Atletti open up. They're going to play 10 in the box and hope for a mistake.
It's going to be a difficult game for both teams
City should do the same just to annoy them and wait to counter them ?
They’re doomed basically. If they come out and leave gaps, Man City will destroy them, if they sit back, Man City will kill them with possession football.
Them odds are fucking terrible
Atl Madrid' game plan
1. Defense. Kicked people's legs
2. Defense. Dirty tackles
3. Defense. Elbowed
4. Defense. Pushed opponents into the ground.
5. Zero attempt on goal
6. Why you all play football. Just to hurt another player and go home. What a f…ing pathetic team.
ATM should playing attacking football to win the game, Otherside its can be chance for Man. City to Punish ATM.
To play as bad against Mallorca, so that everyone will write us off and then show your real class Against city and shut up everyone
Diego Pablo Simeone Masterplan ?
Atleti have reached ucl qf or above more than any other english side in the last 12 yrs
For a big team in laliga they play boring game
Always defending like a bottom team
Always chasing the ball
They dont create much chances
Atletico Madrid are not new to possession football that pep plays, they have been playing against some of the best Barcelona sides for years, they have knocked Barcelona out of CLs playing this same football when Barcelona just like mancity rightnow where the overwhelming favourites, they aren't to be taken lightly especially at Wanda metropolitano, with all 75000 Atletico fans cheering and relishing every tackle , every dive, every yellow card ans every play acting. Trust me ,that stadium can get into the head of the referee and the players pretty quickly if you aren't prepared.
They will go through
Aupa Atleti ❤️
Atletico offers nothing
La Liga is supreme. There will be 3 Spanish teams in the semis
Atleti have massive advantages going into this. Home advantage and 1 extra recovery day.
Atletico will flop around the pitch and try and get someone sent off. When they lose they will whine about refs. It will be another boring 1-0 win for City
The hypocrisy of these guys. When Atleti played the same way and beat Real, 1-0 they used to go crazy praising them ?♂️?♂️
Atleti will knock out city…wait and see??…Diego knows what he's gonna do✅…
At some point ATM board need to ask themselves can we go far with this man(Simeone ) right here ?
They will not open unless City scores early. They will do to what they do best for the majority of the game hoping City makes a mistake. In case the tie stays 1-0 they will go for it in the last 20 minutes playing dirty and do whatever it takes.
I'm a madrid fan and I hope Atletico wins man city since we are most likely gonna go to the semi finals.
Manchester city is a tough opponent and I would rather play Atletico over them any day but real madrid v.s man city will be 10x more interesting to watch with both teams in great form this season.
Sid Lowe now theres a bloke we can relate to, get rid of that Jules
AM have never lost a home 2nd leg after being 1 down in first leg. this is war. and AM know how to battle at home. goodd luck City.
These guys don't know atletico madrid properly. At home, they'll definitely come out with intensity and play like animals. They go crazy at home when they are a goal or two down
Monaco under 21 3-1 Man City 2017, champions league QF probably the best man City team ever including prime Aguerro, Silva , toure, kompany and Pep guardialoa .
The under 21s of Monaco took them apart.
That Monaco team still have 4 players left in champions league KO stages in 2022 and I haven't even counted Kylian mbappe.
The only way to beat A guardialoa team is fire against fire, attack vs attack.
Liverpool has done that, so has Tottenham, so has Real Madrid,
Can A Madrid put 4 strikers against them and surprise them?
I only wish.
My prediction
A Madrid 2 Man City 3
Simeone will never take Atlectico to any other dimension no matter the quality they give him, he won Laliga last season because Real Madrid and Barcelona weren't at their best and from what I can see, they will not win any trophy again till Simeone leaves
City will have Dias and Walker back I don't see it
If I was a betting man I would never beat on any game Atletico Madrid plays you can't predict them, they might surprise pep and then again who knows
