No Winter Signings, Maniche Speaks, and Atlético Begin Hardcore Training

By: Al | Comments No Comments

‘Cause we don’t need them, according to club president Enrique Cerezo.
“I said in October that we wouldn’t bring anyone this winter. We have a roster that many think is a bit small, but we believe that’s important. The team is united and we don’t need any other player in these moments.”
Good point, but what happened [...]

Happy Holidays from Kuno Claus!

By: Greg | Comments 3 Comments

I hope you all are getting into the holiday spirit as much as Sergio is, although most of us won’t be spending our Christmas with a footballing legend, or your childhood hero, or the Argentine National Team coach. Try and have a good one though!

Espanyol 2 Atlético 3: The Latest Review EVER

By: Greg | Comments 2 Comments

Sorry everyone! I’ve been meaning to write about this, but a sickness has kept me bedridden and unmotivated. But better late than never, right? Okay, too be completely honest, I stupidly assumed that this La Liga match wouldn’t not be on anywhere to watch. Thankfully, my friend Drew and the Spurs Offside told [...]

By: Greg | Comments 5 Comments

The last 16 for the Champions League was drawn last night, and we were drawn with FC Porto. All I can say is “Thank God!”. Considering we could have been drawn with Roma, Juventus, and of course the current champions Manchester United, we got lucky getting Porto. Of course, who we could have [...]

By: Al | Comments 3 Comments

Maxi: Thank you for the hospitality, Mr. Mexico dude.

Mexico dude: You’re a good kid. You’re from Argentina, right? Please tell that guy that knocked our team out of the World Cup that his mother is the village doorknob.

The Grégory Coupet Show

By: Al | Comments 2 Comments

Marseille 0 – Grégory Coupet 0
It makes sense that Atlético wouldn’t try too hard considering that they’re already qualified for the next round, but the beating that they took (sans the goals) was very painful to watch. In the match, there was only two different kinds of Atlético players on the pitch: those who tried [...]

Mercy? What’s that?

Sporting Gijon 2- Atlético Madrid 5
Matches against little teams are incredibly fun.
Of course, I only say this because we won. We absolutely needed a win like this, something I’ll dub a “Barcelona win” because of the insane scoreline. Thanks to some unfortunate scorelines in the top part of La Liga, our season doesn’t seem [...]

Hi everyone, my name is Greg, and I will be helping Al write the Atletico Madrid Offside while he is on leave near the end of the month, but I figured I would starting writing a few pages now to get the hang of things. Please, be brutal with me, I need to be the [...]
