Here are your rumors and transfers, everyone:
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
There’s as much action currently at the Vicente Calderon board room as a drugged Steven Seagal in a wheelchair. My main news junkpiles, AS and Marca, have no idea what to write about either. Hell, they don’t have any stupid rumors to start, that’s how miserable they are. So here is my roundup of what’s up in the Atleti world.

The great thing about being a blogger is that our posts don’t have to be objective, and we are therefore allowed to voice our opinion as much as we want. Thats why I have done my good share of bitching on this page, mostly because of player stupidity, bad results, crazy technical decisions, and the such.
I love Atlético, and obviously they haven’t touched their true potential all that often this season. Excellent players and excellent fans weren’t enough to motivate the team to make this season any less stressful and inconsistent. That’s why I need one more shot to give this bitching thing one last shot this season.
I already went over the good of this season, which was part one.
Now it’s time for part two…
So I present to you…. the Bad.

It’s only been a week, but boy do I feel like a sleazebag not updating this page when the other Liga pages are hard at work. But whatever, I’m back now to give you all transfer rumors and the such.
Instead of writing a long and boring review of the entire season, I’ll throw a little award ceremony, with booze and hot chicks included. Everyone invited. Bring your friends too, because I need to fill up these seats.
So ladies and gentlemen, I present….. the first annual Atlético Madrid Offside awards, The Good Edition. I’ll do my best not to give Forlan the award for every category, even the ones he doesn’t even belong to.

Category: Team NewsShould Sergio Agüero Leave Atlético?
By: Al | 4 Comments
Expectations were high, but this season wasn’t Kun Aguero’s best. He has scored 16 goals, three less than last year, and also received criticism for having bad games and for diving (see: the Valencia match). Regardless, he still showed moments of magic (PSV, Barcelona, Marseille, etc) but he’s still where he started two years ago: as the U-20 champion with lots more to prove.

Category: Team NewsAthletic 1, Atlético 4: Feels Even Better, Man
By: Al | 10 Comments
In Marca’s words: Everything is easier when you have Diego Forlan in your life.
So Atlético pretty much killed Athletic Bilbao and pissed on their Copa del Rey wounds, but more importantly, they are almost forgiven for all the embarrassing losses and slips this season by the supporters.
Who has the heart to jeer and criticize these guys any more? The results that we expected from Resino are here, the team is a hair away from Champions League football, and Diego Forlan is number one in the Pichichi standings. Aside from the Barca fans, Atleti supporters are probably the happiest in Spain at the moment.
