Help Wanted
By: Al |No, I am not quitting. However, the next few weeks will be a bit busy (exams and such) and I don’t want my posts to tank simply because I’m concentrated on other stuff. So I thought, if any of you readers want a crack at blogging for a few weeks helping me out with posts [...]
Atlético Gets Fined… 150 Euros
By: Al |No, I didn’t forget to put a “thousand” there. Atletico really just got fined 150 euros for the object that was thrown at Real Madrid manager Manuel Pellegrini. The bearers of the fine, the Comité de Competición, claim that the impact of the object was so minimal that it can’t even be proven that something [...]
Get Ripped Like Forlán
By: Al |Diego Forlan is featured in the latest version of Men’s Health (Spain version) and he’ll show you how to get rid of the belly and get toned. Pick up your copy at the newsstand nowhere near you if you want to read more.
Forlan on playing well: “In order to play well you must work on [...]
Atlético 6 – Marbella 0: Taking It Out On the Chumps
By: Al |Nice to see Atlético play against a team with a worse defense than ours. The game looked like one that was being played for the sake of taking out the anger from the derby loss of last weekend. The goals seemed easy and the team oozed of confidence, mostly due to the fact that the [...]
An Analysis Of How Much We Suck
By: Al |The headline is as blunt as I can get about this post. All I need to show you is one statistic.
7 points from 10 matches played.
Catastrophic? Indeed. The team is doing so bad, that the inconsistent and unpredictable Atletico of last year is dearly missed. You could have at least expected some wins from last [...]
Atlético vs. Real Mandril: el Derbi Returns
By: Al |I know that it has been about 10 years since Atletico win against Real Madrid, but who cares. It’s the damn Derbi Madrileño. Be excited.
It’s one of those bottom vs. top fixtures (we’re in 17th, they’re in 2nd) but we’re still expecting the upset, despite a ten year hex in the way. Derbies are always [...]
Diego Forlán Interview
By: Al |I’m not a big fan of reprinting news, but this interview was one that I had to share with everyone. It was done with Marca, just in time for the derby clash on Saturday. El Cacha talks about everything from Champions League elimination, Real Madrid, Quique Flores’ methods, World Cup qualification, and more.
Don’t F around [...]
Atlético 2 – Chelsea 2: Aguero Is Baaack!
By: Al |…and who the hell knew that he could score free kicks?
We’re dumped out of the Champions League, but at the same time, have plenty to look forward to, and a performance to applaud. The team that played today was one that was absent all season and played with all their might. Chelsea was Chelsea, and [...]
Atlético vs Chelsea: Scary Teams Scaring Teams
By: Al |We aint afraid man, I swear.
The mighty Chelsea is in town and despite the 4-0 thrashing that they gave us two weeks ago, our confidence is through the roof, according to Quique. What is there to be afraid of, to be honest? The fact is, they are group leaders and 2nd in the Premier [...]
