mikeyjavfc Posted July 21, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted July 21, 2023 12 minutes ago, viivvaa66 said: Both of them started of as Athletic. They both uses Southampton’s shirt now. When they was formed they initially played in Blackburn shirts, but when they sent somebody to England to buy more Blackburn shirts, they couldn’t get enough, and ended up buying 50 Southampton shirts instead. During Franco, they both was called Atlético, but only Athletic Club de Bilbao changed their name back. If we are going to be really pedantic the correct spelling is: Atlético de Madrid. There’s a long-read about this on The Atlétic. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm jumping in here and it's probably already been said but one of these guys is a striker and the other one an attacking midfielder. I also think Simeone plays the most dire football imaginable, and Felix just isn't suited to playing such boring awful negative football. Living in Madrid I tried to get interested in them, nostalgic a bit because of our epic Uefa Cup tie back in the day, but my word they are hard to watch. I wasted my money a couple of times, but never again. Edited July 21, 2023 by Rolta 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under a more suited and less aggressive/confrontational/temperamental manager? I think so… Problem is… Never thought a move was likely but he’s a player Unai clearly likes, has spoken positively about and has already tried to attract to the club… Why people are so sure he’s a bad egg is beyond me… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

England batted to 592 all out, Aussies currently 79-2. Some 25 year old lad won a local election. And the great Tony Bennett has died. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not expecting someone on the level of Martinez but I’m confident he’d cost us 8-10 points if he needed to play for a more than half a season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
