Simeone is supposed to be the highest paid manager in world football by quite some margin as well. Would have expected him to evolve his approach slightly over the years but he's obviously either not capable or not willing.

The big 2 in Spain have really average sides by their standards yet Atletico still finished 17 points off Real this season.
I understand they have incredible defenders and arguably the worlds best goalkeeper, but with that in mind, you would think it would open them up to attack a little more knowing what they have at the back.

The football they play is criminal when they have players like Koke, Partey, Carrasco, Felix, Lemar, Correra, Saul, Costa etc, list is endless.
 
As do I but I also like to see a bit of football being played. That must have been stopped every 5 seconds with no more than 4 passes in a row at any point.

Know what you mean. I think i mainly enjoy them in knockout football. Don't really like to watch them in league games. Would be a dull watch every week, but as a neutral when they're in knock out games i really enjoy their approach.
