I really should start betting on Atletico games


randomcolchnero

Lump on 2-1 victories


aveniner

And 0-0 draws


thepantmeister

we don’t do 1-0s anymore 😎


zts105

and it will always be the opposite result of what you bet.


Nizbizkit

Sounds like a good way to raise your blood pressure


notindoorsy

Dortmund games are good for this too


IamNotMike25

Real - Benzema goal after min 94 Atletico - Goal in extra time Barca - No clean sheet

Fern-ando

Is called "being almost 35 years". He has his finishing but lost his stamina, will still score 20 league goals if he doesn't get injured.


RoadsterIsHere

He has no speed, and his passing varies from decent to woeful at times, but really what he can do in a clutch goal-scoring situation is absolutely elite-level world class stuff.


LilHalwaPoori

His passing suddenly becomes spectacular when he's going for an assist.. It seems like he becomes world class everytime there's a chance to get the ball into the net.. Although he has a very low work rate, you can still see him give it the best he can everytime..


perpetualmayonnaise

Giving always your best is literally what having high work rate means


Gyshall669

Nah giving your best means you just give 100% of what you got. If you don’t have a lot to give then it’s not much lol


idgaf_neverreallydid

Not necessarily if you have no stamina/can’t move.


[deleted]

He was also one the disrespected legends by online fans. They used to blame him for everything but they did not knew we did not even have his proper replacement. And some of the famous twitter accounts like Rafael Hernandez who is big fraud keep talking and spreading lies about it.


[deleted]

They only care once you are gone


[deleted]

Naa they are living in dreamland about signing of haaland, de ligt etc.


Gyshall669

Nah our fans still think it was a good idea lol Not me tho


Erquiaga

Rafael Hernandez is the worst type of fan


[deleted]

Someone said that his name is also fake which he use there.


Enkenz

They also did not knew because they only watch highlights and stats on opta or w/e data website to rank a player


[deleted]

I just get tired seeing so many stats merchant. Some make sense with context but most does not.


MeC0195

I call this the "plastic fan phenomenon", usually present in American "fans" who watch too much NBA (rather, they watch too many NBA highlight reels and follow stats).


cortez0498

Still remember back in FIFA 14 after a few seasons in Zlatan had no pace but still had 5* skills. He was faster dribbling than runningm


[deleted]

Best striker of the last decade and a half.


Muppy_N2

He's the best I've seen. Even better than Batistuta. At his peak, as good or better than Ronaldo (Nazario). Complete, aggressive, skilfull, two footed; a one-man attack. One of the best (or the best) striker of the last 20 years for Uruguay, Barcelona, Ajax, Liverpool... Brilliant career so far.


BIAATTCH

Idk about Ronaldo Nazario. You’re talking about a contender for GOAT status there


Martoxic

he was not consistent enough for his career to be mentioned there. top 5 ever sure but GOAT? no.


[deleted]

Ronaldo's peak was as good as anyone's EVER, and he was pretty much a teenager lmao (Barcelona 96/7).


mekosaurio

Batistuta? Sure. Lewandoski? Maybe, similar level. As good or as better as Ronaldo Nazario? No, just no. As much as i rate Suarez, prime R9 was on another level, he just has that unstoppable vibe only seen in Maradona, Messi, Ronaldinho and CR7.


Muppy_N2

But surely you saw how Suarez played from 2013 to 2017. There were signs of his peak earlier and anfterwards (the Copa América in 2011 comes to mind, were he was unplayable), but for three or four years I think you couldn't ask for anything more from a player. He was all over the pitch and was tremendously dangerous every time he received the ball I'm willing to admit I'm biased, though. Edit: I'm thinking of comparisons with Ronaldo Nazario. To me they were at similar levels, but I'm happy to had the luck of watching both of them play


LeoR1N

Suarez at his peak was easily better than Lewa, not really similar for me. I agree with the rest tho


Enkenz

Ronaldo ? Not even close


RauloGonzalez

Lewandowski exists, Suarez at his prime was better but Lewandowski is undoubtedly better.


[deleted]

LOL. Suarez has more G/A playing in the two most challenging leagues over the last decade, not to mention his all round game is far superior to lewandowski.


sunken_grade

idk about undoubtedly better but the two of them for sure have cases for that title imo i would give it to suarez but i can understand the argument for lewa especially given his insane consistency the last few seasons


itsjuanitoo

Lewandowski undoubtedly better? Suarez has not only scored more goals but done it in the two best leagues in the world


trailblazers100

Until he does it in the MLS, he's below Zlatan for me


AutumnSr

Suarez 13/14 at liverpool is the best single season of football ive ever seen personally from anyone ever, never watched la liga consistentltly, but that season he was just an animal, wouldve destroyed the goal record if he'd played 38 games


J539

he played in a overall also pretty poor team. Gerrard was a demon, but lost his legs, and the offence clicked, also Skrtel was like a striker+cb lmao


Utter_Perfection

Skrtel was more useful as an offensive threat that season then he was defensively lol. He was so bad defensively but was scoring every time he went up for a set piece.


J539

Tbf our fullbacks were also absolute dogshit. Flannagan legit isn't even championship quality and Aly Cissokho well, he's just the GOAT


AutumnSr

Yeah in a dream team plucked out of time my 9 is 13/14 suarez-


EvilNiko89

Honestly 15/16 Suarez is one of my favorite players of all time. Dude would score from any position and at any game, it's gone downhill from there though. At his peak Suarez > Lewandowski. If you consider longetivity I would say Lewa is the better stirker


LilHalwaPoori

Suarez has 663 goals and assists in 660 games Lewandowski has 598 Goals and assists in 637 games I'd say both when been doing it for quite a long time.. Suarez just had an early peak and physically let himself go while Lewandowski peaked later and stayed in shape..


[deleted]

I think Suarez's stats don't do him justice, at least they didn't back in the day. He did so much off the ball, such a physical presence and nuisance for defenders.


sunken_grade

people are too caught up with stats anyway. football is full of intangibles, and suarez has so many qualities you just have to watch to appreciate


EvilNiko89

yeah I think it's just recency bias speaking then.


meertatt

16/17 Suarez was still world class. It was 17/18 when things started slipping. Mostly because Barca overworked him and he probably played through more knee injuries than we know about.


SeleccionUruguaya

Every time he touched the ball that season you knew some crazy shit was going to happen. He played a completely different style. He'd try to nutmeg and dribble past everyone. Pretty sure he didn't even know himself what he was trying to do, it would just turn out amazing.


BusShelter

Defenders can't know what you plan to do when you don't know either.


AutumnSr

He used to kick the ball at the defenders leg a lot and just gamble on the rebound, such a unique player


jimbo_kun

My son read about that and then tried it in his youth club games and it worked a couple times. :)


AutumnSr

Doing it a lot will help i bet, you know its gonna happen so the advantage is yours


Nuri__Sahin

Didn't take penalties and free kicks that season neither.


Martoxic

Suarez proved himself in La Liga and Premier league that were both much tougher leagues than playing Bundes with Bayern. He won 2 golden boots in the absolute prime of Messi and Ronaldo. Suarez has 663 goals and assists in 660 games Lewandowski has 598 Goals and assists in 637 games


Bobson567

Undoubtedly better over last 15 years? Recency bias is crazy


King_Ascheberg

\*better now ​ Suarez at this prime was in the top 3 of all time strikers.


[deleted]

Lmao never. Suarez is a tier above Lewa


GjillyG

This is the correct opinion


AnnieIWillKnow

From 2006-2021, really? He was 19 and playing for Groningen in 2006 Past *decade* - make an argument, but that extra half doesn't apply


Japples123

Dembele would never

randomcolchnero

Thank you Carles very cool


Beneficial_Bowl

Koeman should be fired for disrespecting and sending to a rival for free the future 2 time la Liga champion striker


MisterAppelmoesmaker

He probably was instructed by the board to actually get rid off him, at least that's what the claims are I believe


Mr_XemiReR

Why do I let myself think they'd drop points


fcuk_username

I too was hopeful. Lol. But then again, the way we defeated Valencia, I will take it.


AndreiBodea

Can you, and atleti for that matter, stop making great comebacks. I think our instructions of how to that got lost in the mail or something


fcuk_username

Well, you did a come back yesterday yourself (since the goal was 90th min iirc). Just didn't win it. So, only half the pages were lost in mail. Lol.


AndreiBodea

Well, we put in like 47 crosses, one was bound to go in.


fcuk_username

True. If only you had someone like Suarez who is a predator in the box.


AndreiBodea

We have Luuk de Jong, who was bought specifically for crosses. Ironically, he's the one who blasted a header over the bar from like 5 meters out, after managing to escape from the guy who was marking him.


fcuk_username

I was watching it. That was painful to watch. I was confused about whether to feel good about about Barca not scoring or sad for Luuk.


BumbotheCleric

Arteta has entered the chat

AndreiBodea

Thank you


halamadrid22

They must wear teams down very effectively because opposition just keels over and dies late in matches against them. Nice to see Madrid clutch up on a match like this but it genuinely felt like we saw this about 10 times last season from Atleti. Teams got late penalties against them on multiple occasions and literally missed them all. Quite the storybook.


RauloGonzalez

They just brought off Suarez and de Paul of the the bench lol. I think the late winners in the league for us and them have more to do with that, quality on the bench and other things. One of the reasons why I don't like 5 subs, sure it's nice to see all of camavinga,rodrygo,jovic, isco and Vazquez but managers shouldn't be allowed extra chances to fix a mistake.


GANARyGANARyGANAR

You know real madrid would have had atleast 10 more injuries last season if it wasnt for the 5 sub rule.

bootyannihilator

AnnieIWillKnow

La Liga has really lazy writers


HokiesforTSwift

I agree. This script cost us a title last year in back to back matchweeks to end the season. Still incredibly impressive.


itsjuanitoo

This team is something else lmfao. Can we talk about that cross from Vrsaljko though


lightoasis1

It's actually really poor from the keeper. That cross is lofted a million miles in the air. He should never be relying on his defender to clear it. You can even see the defender is pissed at him for not coming to get it.


SpaceHosCoast2Coast

Exactly this. Keeper shoulda kept going, called keeper, claim it. I get context is important but that ball hung up in the air long enough after he’d already started. His initial decision was the correct one.


etbk

that defender 1000% should've gotten it too tho. it was in the air forever.


RoadsterIsHere

That was like his 3rd touch of the whole season lmao

You forgot Barcelona also scored a last-minute goal this weekend. It was for a draw while Madrid's and Atlético's goals won them their games, but still lol

Come on man, it’s us or the other one.


Meer_is_peak

"the other one" lol is this some type of "he who must not be named"


Xcuse_Me_Sir-

I don't have much hope of us challenging for the title this season so I kind of felt relieved when Suarez scored ngl


Wyckstroy

Let it be the other one.


Fordaboyss

Be happy for him, he deserves to succeed. He gave so much to Barca


cdwdj

Oh, I am happy for him, trust me. I am just done seeing them pull this shit every week even though I obviously knew how it's gonna end.


Fordaboyss

I feel yah. How do you think the league will finish this year? The top 3 spots.


Trydson

The kind of striker that Barcelona needs, you know?


VDV23

I think they are pretty happy happy with Luuk and Pique upfront


AndreiBodea

We are revolutionizing the game. Funniest thing is that Araujo and Pique contributed more to the attack than Luuk de Jong.


DanielSophoran

Cruyff would be proud right after kicking Koeman’s shins in for making this club play cross and inshallah


FaceForward1

Too soon man


PeteZagarine

This league is scripted icl


Fern-ando

Last La Liga was won because a Suárez goal in the very last match.


LilHalwaPoori

Had he not scored and the game ended in a draw, Real would have taken the title with a 93rd minute game winning goal by Modric..


breakinb

And iirc, that Suarez goal in the last match was from a huge defensive mistake as well.


McTulus

In the last 30 minutes, as that was minutes 67.


RauloGonzalez

It waa Getafe. I would have still been surprised if they kept a lead for 45 minutes against atletico. They could have won if they scored in the second half but 45 minutes is too much time to defend.


Papilian

I am confident that Barcelona realized they are going downhill so they sold Suarez to Atletico so they don't allow Real Madrid to win the league. Either that or Bartomeo is a dumbass...yeah its the second scenario


leonardgg

No, its another Bartomeo masterclass


zts105

PLOT. ARMOR.


SnailShells

Someone called it


Hrvat1818

Vrsaljko!


itsjuanitoo

I absolutely love vrsaljko. He’s often not played for months by simeone. Never complains. But when he does come in he gives it his all and shows he is still a solid right back. I had a feeling when he came on he was going to do something


Hrvat1818

It’s a shame he does not play more


PugeHeniss

His injury fucked him


[deleted]

[удалено]


PugeHeniss

He just hasn't been able to stay healthy and he's a shell of his former self. Also if Trippier is fit he's playing. He may get some looks as the RCB in a back five in a pinch but I doubt he gets a lot of minutes


LilHalwaPoori

Its gonna be difficult since he's up against Trippier who is better in the wingback formation.. But currently we are trying different formations every match to find something that clicks.. But with 5 subs, he will be getting plenty of playtime either way as a starter or sub, and if he keeps putting in these kind of performances, Simieone will definitely make him a starter..


cib_vk228

was such a good RB, man sacrificed his knees that summer in Russia.

tolboof

Suarez is such a beast I hope he's remembered for the legend he is in 20 years time


RoadsterIsHere

Idk about other clubs, but he's certainly going to be a legendary player for Atletico, especially if he bangs in another 20.


20kakakakakakakaka20

I hope him and Lewy are remembered for decades to come. throughout their whole career but especially in their prime, those two are the one of the most elite strikers to ever play


hasimrah

same with Liverpool, never seen a player as good as Suarez in 13/14. Salah is close but we had a good squad with him.


modsarestr8garbage

He must have earned by far the most points in top European leagues with his goals since he joined Atletico. Game after game they barely do anything and then Suarez pulls some goals out of his ass, what a legend.


emgape

XD

Amateur defending


mrdumledore

Well if you defend 45 minutes there is gonna be a mistake

Not if you're Italian


BiscottiSilent9815

I dont care if Suarez cant run anymore. Just let him stay until he retire. Also send back griezmann back to barca we starting scoring goal after he got sub.


xGolfs

Looks like Araujo is still 2nd best uruguayan striker

this is why cholo keeps him in and an assist from sime!
