This Is Atleti

December 5th, 2012 The Groundhog Day One Again. Another year comes to an end and we miserably fail to perform against Real Madrid. The 2-0 defeat leave all fans with a somber look and the first hint of worries at serious team flaws shown at the Santiago Bernabeu. On the bright side, if any, the team still has a solid point gap with the rest of Champions League spot aspiring sides and even Real Madrid is still far away for the moment. We analyze the derbi, we talk about current affairs like transfer rumors, Courtois and his Twitter issues, training facilities and how complete the player list actually is. All this as usual with the red and white passion we always try to spread.
