  • I understand this viewpoint, but I think it's a point made more easily by someone accustomed to seeing their team win stuff. I also feel like Atleti's style is kind of in it's death throes as a functioning football philosphy. I'm sure they didn't used to be quite this bad. Ultimately is it any more ugly than a team getting success by spending billions to have an embarassment of world-class players filling every position, finding all available loopholes to avoid FFP, having the ability to pull numerous £60-100m players off their bench (And they get five fucking subs next season)? I know you need an excellent plan and excellent coaching, but the level of money at the top of the game is eye-watering and the playing field is not level.

  • this is a fair point - but I think it is more ugly, because I think a lot of the mega rich clubs do it as well as all the FFP bollocks!
