Atheltico are a throw back to how I always imagined Spanish and Italian teams could ' stop ' the opposition - pushes, shoves, trips, etc....
Europa Semi Finals
- Thread starter montpelier
- Start date
We actually have Salzburg fans on this forum, or what?
Holy feck that was close
I am still shocked why conte didn't want costa.
Costa is bullying Arsenal, what a loss he was/is for Chelsea.
Lovely play from Costa that.
Costa is hungry. 
Costa should've taken the shot himself really
Might have something to do with Costa being a massive twat
Is Bellerin the worst crossing right back? So many squandered opportunities.
Europa League specialist on
Simeone
I didn't know they existed tbf
Learn how to cutback, Arsenal.
They've got in behind quite a few times and keeping doing the Valencia special of hitting it across the six yard box only for it to be blocked by the first man.

Really? Aren't you forgetting someone?
Nah, it's nothing like Utd Liverpool. I don't dislike them half as I do Barca.
Simeone
He's mental.Finally saviour Mkhi is in
Costa is a bull
Costa is such a good player. How Chelsea let him go is a mystery.
Just that OM are very easy to dislike as a club...Their fans even more so....
They play too many passes and are way too hesitant to score. They can't defend either. Actually seeing clearly now how horrible they are as a team and how poor a job Wenger has done, must be a pain watching their games this season.
Atletico are all over Arsenal in the 2nd half, cmon get a 2nd goal to kill the game!
Bellerin must watch daily videos of Valencia. Can't pick a man out from a cross/pull back for toffee. Always been horrific at this.
Didn't he become a fat bastard in his final months at chelsea? Looked like he would struggle in china
Same like conte. One more reason why it was surprise for me
At this point, Atletico are just a shit team. No excitement, no passing game, no build-up, no flair players. Just hoping on scraping through every game with some cheap striker goals or set pieces. They really have gone backwards.
And don't come at me with this "boring Man Utd" or "boring Mourinho" shit. His football is dire, but it produced a 3 goal comeback after going 2 down away at City. Is there any chance that would have happened with Atletico? Surely not. They rather draw with fecking Qarabag (home and away).
Their football is not even successfull in big games anymore which was always their strong point. 8 big games for them this season (Barca, Real in La Liga plus Roma and Chelsea in CL) and they won 1 out of 8, at home against Roma.

This nobody is still entitled to an opinion though.
Back to the point. Diving, if it is caught on the night is a yellow but it is still common opinion that it is cheating that should be stamped out of the game. So the fact that intentional fouling is a yellow card offence doesn't mean that it should be treated any different than diving.
No way Chelsea dropped out of top 4 if he was still there this season
Where's the Gabonese dude?
Cup tied.
My stream froze, who scored?
Mkhitaryan almost
Mkhitaryaaaaaaaaaaan.
Would have been great.
Oh Mkhi what a pity!
Robbie, turn your fecking mic off mate
So it's more like City v Utd. Noisy neighbours.
Costa did in the first half
I have a soft spot for OM. Skoblar, Boksic (I am Croat) and Cantona. But I believe you
