Atleti lost Courtouis, Diego Costa, Adrian Lopez, Tiago & even Diego (although he was a bit shit compared to his pomp) & yet look where they are & how they are doing (1 point of Real & same points as Barca) & last season needs no revisiting to prove it's not a flash in the pan.

Last night the keeper was 22, & two teenagers in defence vs Real Madrid & kept a clean sheet, I think in total 3 youth team players started the game all under 20. Ridiculous.

Does well with the money he gets - Mandzukic (€22m) and Griezmann (€30m) would command well north of those figures now. Mandzukic is being banded about for twice that fee to Arsenal at the moment

Various top Freds were demanding he be signed last summer.

The two best centre-backs in the world were at the Vicente Calderón last night - Godín and Varane.
