Atlético de Madrid News & Interviews

[Solid Snake]

nah... i didn't get a chance to see the whole thing, but it was a good game

[Musicá]

it really was, especially for Real Madrid, because we learned some of our weaknesses that match. Atletico really put up a good show
are there even any atletico fans on SFN?

[Solid Snake]

Musa Legenda

[Musicá]

what do you think of Ever Banega? I saw him play on loan last season at Valencia which I also support, and he seems like a bright youngster.
He's a 21 year old centre midfielder. He already has 2 NT team caps for Argentina!
Also Atlético have another prospect for the future in Ignacio Camacho, 19 year old defensive midfielder.

[Solid Snake]

I saw him play for Boca..... i don't think he has reached the level that he had in Boca.... but he's still young.

Camacho - idk

But Jurado is a great player..... from Real's inferiors

[Musicá]

In Boca he played against other teams though.
Haven't heard about Jurado but I'll check him out.
also my mistake, i just realised that Banega was actually on loan at Atlético for the 08-09 season, and he now plays at Valencia.

Atletico handed small fine



Atletico Madrid have been fined 150 euros by the Spanish football federation for incidents during their home derby with Real Madrid earlier this month, which included visiting coach Manuel Pellegrini being struck by an object thrown from the stands. [+]

This is a fine for me driving without a safety belt, not for a club whose fans caused incidents .

[Solid Snake]

I know.... that's a big loss for Atletico

[Sipahi]

The Spanish papers cannot get enough of Arda, I think he is just at the right place to be, he has the potential to be placed amongst the greats of Spanish football.

I hope he will get better and better, no Turkish media pressure, no other kinds of bullshit around.

[TheAnfieldWay]

The key for Athletico this year is keeping Falcao fit. He is absolutely quality, he will tormet defences and in the Spanish league he will get a load of goals for them.
If they can get Diego playing well also, then him and Falcao linking up could be really dangerous. If they get those two firing on all cylinders then there is no reason they can't get 3rd place this year.
It is evident from the Barcelona result that they still aren't close to the same standard as the top two teams, but they should be competing with Valencia and Malaga for third place definitely.

I love diego as a player, think he is fantastic! if falcao is going to be scoring this season he will be doing it in PUMA boots after joining fabregas, aguero and henry in signing with them! check it out http://www.theplayersnet.com/puma-re...tar-sign-puma/
