Thanks to 2 late goals, Suarez finally wins a game in La Liga. Took him 3 games. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

This is how Atletico have achieved so much without having any champions in their team. Simeone might be a d*ck, but he knows how to train and motivate his players.

Problem is, such motivation-oriented coaches rarely last long.

Generalization is not the right answer. Simeone has all it takes to make it big.

Huh, why would you say that? Mourinho is in the same mould imo and he's been around for years now

Mourinho is also a tactical master. He isn't driven like Simeone; such coaches usually burn out quickly but we'll see.

Do you have any proof or examples to base this claim?

NT coaches like the Mexican guy, long-time Croatian NT coach Blažević, Hiddink to a degree as well. Then you have people like Otto Rehhagel, Marco Tardelli, etc.

Bilic seemed a bit like that as well. Very much a talker. You'd know better than me on that one though.

If Ronaldo continues to score at the rate he has been so far in La Liga, by the end of the seas he will have 67 league goals.

I'd hate Milan to end up like Simeone's Atletico.

2012. 5th. 2013 3rd. 2014. 1st. 2014/2014 - 3rd.

Last 16 of the CL with room to spare, CL final the previous season, with a squad the best of which was sold in the summer.

Managing to challenge at the top again despite losing Costa, Courtous, Luis.

Yes, big problem, and clearly his career is on a downward spiral.

I'd cut off my nuts for Simeone at Milan. World's best coach. By a distance.

I think he meant sustained over a period. Finishing 5th and 3rd when you're the 3rd best team in the league isn't an almighty achievement. Winning it and making the CL final, is. So that's 1 great season and a couple of more or less expected ones.

There's also a long way to go to say he's challenging this season. Unless you consider Southampton/West Ham to be challengers in England
