Simeone: An indelible legacy at Atlético

2025-04-24 Diario As

Diego Pablo Simeone’s continuity at the head of Atlético de Madrid is consolidated as an exceptional case in elite football. Following the recent departure of Imanol from Real Sociedad, the figure of Cholo resonates even more strongly, already accumulating 13 years of uninterrupted dedication to the rojiblanco club, a feat that few coaches can match.

While other LaLiga benches see multiple coaches pass through, Atlético enjoys enviable stability, built on Simeone’s commitment and philosophy. Names like Pellegrini, Ancelotti or Michel, with solid careers in their respective teams, are at a considerable distance from the Argentine coach, whose influence in the Metropolitano is undeniable.

Cholo has not only provided stability, but has instilled an identity and a fighting spirit that have marked an era at Atlético. His career is an example of how the mutual commitment between a coach and his players can generate a successful and lasting sports project.

Simeone has expressed his gratitude to the players who have defended his ideas on the field. Over time, Simeone is approaching breaking historical longevity records on the benches. Miguel Muñoz’s mark at Real Madrid is getting closer, a new milestone that could be reached in the 2025-2026 season. Simeone’s legacy at Atlético continues to be written, reaffirming his position as an indisputable benchmark in the club’s history.

Gallagher: The Resurgence of the Colchonero Arrival

2025-04-24 Diario As

The Rojiblancos welcomed Gallagher with the hope of a player with a strike and arrival from the second line, a profile that perfectly fits Simeone’s style. His beginnings were promising, with two goals in his first four league games, showing glimpses of that goalscoring potential that excited so much.

However, the gunpowder became wet as the days passed, although he also scored an important goal in the Champions League against Real Madrid. Despite participating in 42 games with the Atlético shirt, the fans hope to see more of that player who dazzled in his first games.

Gallagher is in the process of adapting, both to the team’s game and to the culture and language. His adaptation to the left wing has been a challenge, and he seeks to find his place in Cholo’s scheme.

The memory of the goal against Rayo Vallecano, a glimpse of his ability to strike from outside the area, serves as motivation to rediscover his best version. The Colchonero fans are confident that Gallagher can recover that goalscoring spark and become a key player for the team.

Griezmann: A New Role at Atlético

2025-04-24 Diario As

Antoine Griezmann, a key figure for Atlético de Madrid, is facing an unexpected change in his role within the team. After a season as a fundamental pillar, with 3,331 minutes played, the Frenchman could start his second consecutive game as a substitute, something unusual since September 2022.

This situation contrasts with his usual status as an undisputed starter, where, as they say, Atleti has always been Griezmann and ten more. This tactical decision comes after a run of ten games without goals or assists from the player, showing a reduction in his offensive influence.

His last goal was on February 25th. Despite having been a substitute on few occasions during the season, such as against Mallorca or Rayo, these rotations mainly responded to the management of physical loads. However, the recent substitutions mark a turning point.

Let’s remember that Griezmann already experienced a similar situation in the 2022-23 season, although motivated by contractual issues with FC Barcelona. Now, the challenge for the forward is to reverse this situation and regain his best level, while his future at the club is defined. Atlético fans hope that this change will encourage Griezmann to rediscover his best version and once again be decisive in the rojiblanco attack.

Late Kick-Off Angers Fans on Children's Day

2025-04-23 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid fans have expressed their outrage at the scheduled kick-off time for the match against Real Sociedad, set for Saturday, May 10th at 9:00 PM.

The Unión de Peñas (Supporters’ Union) has raised its voice on behalf of the Rojiblancos fans, considering this schedule inappropriate as it coincides with Children’s Day, a special date for young fans.

The match, which will end at 11:00 PM, is too late for children who are usually asleep at that time, even on a Saturday. Fans believe that the schedule undermines the celebration and enjoyment of the little ones on a day designed for them.

The Unión de Peñas has described the League’s decision as a boycott and criticizes the prioritization of business over the well-being of future fans. Despite the discontent, the club has shown a proactive attitude, adapting to the circumstances and extending the recreational activities throughout the day to compensate for the late kick-off time. Younger fans will be able to enjoy photos with Indi, inflatables, slides and human foosball tables, ensuring that the Children’s Day celebration remains a memorable experience for the Atlético family.

Atlético Seeks Revenge with Changes in the Starting Eleven

2025-04-23 Diario As

Atlético de Madrid is preparing for a crucial match at the Metropolitano, looking to redeem themselves after the defeat in Las Palmas. Simeone seems to be betting on tweaks to the starting eleven, without reaching a complete revolution.

Barrios, after overcoming some loads, is available and Cholo has his 23 players. One of the most notable changes is Griezmann’s possible benching. The coach has been trying out Julián Alvarez and Sorloth in attack, looking to exploit the connection between the Argentinian and the Norwegian.

In defense, Lenglet is expected to return to the center back alongside Le Normand, leaving Giménez on the bench. Llorente and Galán would occupy the full-back positions. In midfield, De Paul, recovered from his injury, would accompany Barrios, while Koke would be left out of the starting lineup.

Giuliano Simeone and Gallagher will take care of the wings. In summary, Simeone could field a similar eleven to the one he has used in recent times, but with the surprising benching of Griezmann and Giménez, showing the usual rotation in the center of defense. The fans expect a positive reaction and convincing play in this important match.
