Comparing the data of the two seasons, Atletico Madrid has actually regressed this season. Enrique Flores, the head coach of Atletico Madrid who took over in October 2009, has not changed the way the Hill family has controlled Atletico Madrid for the past few years.
of imprint.
Ciolo, a senior Spanish commentator who is also a staunch opponent of the Atletico Madrid owner Hill family, made very sharp comments. He believed that since the Hill family took control of Atletico Madrid, the two words "typical" and "***" can be used to cover up the situation.
Of.
Ciolo believes that the theme word of Atletico Madrid this year is "chaos", which is the typical state of this club, making it difficult for the team to give full play to its best state in chaos, and the [***] type state is that there is no reason and
The sudden outburst of omens brought back something.
Any Atletico Madrid fans who scold the Hill family are all due to Hill's foolish decision. In 1988, Hill's first decision after joining Atletico Madrid was that he believed that if the club wanted to become a giant,
He had to spend a lot of money to buy popular stars. Relying on youth training was a waste of effort. Then he disbanded Atletico Madrid's youth training system. With high investment, he only managed to win two Copa del Rey titles in the 1991 and 1992 seasons.
.
Going your own way that violates the objective laws of football will definitely not work! And in 1994, a young star emerged from Real Madrid and soon became the "golden boy" of the entire Spain. This was Gonzalez Raul. However, after a while, a young star emerged from Real Madrid.
After checking his parentage, it turned out that Raul was one of the young players lost when Hill disbanded the Atletico Madrid youth training system in 1988...
From that time on, the fans who supported Atletico Madrid began to hate their club owner. The protracted and protracted struggle lasted until the death of Hill in 2004. Even Hill did not hesitate to spend his money to win the club in the 1995-1996 season.
He won a "double crown" of La Liga and Copa del Rey, and Atletico Madrid fans didn't appreciate it!
It's no wonder that from the time he took charge of the club in 1988 to his death in 2004, there was only one league championship and three King's Cups in 16 years. It is indeed far from his big moves, big plans and big plans.
The third strongest team in terms of total number of championships after Real Madrid and Barcelona has actually been resting on its laurels for so many years...

In October 2009, Atlético Madrid's board of directors finally succeeded in forcing a vote. Abasolo, the third largest shareholder, withdrew from the board of directors. Hill, the largest shareholder, announced that he would step back behind the scenes and no longer interfere in the daily management of the club. The two major interest groups died together.
Orrezo, the major shareholder, film company owner, and always the puppet general manager, finally won, and Atletico Madrid also announced the end of the 21-year rule of the Hill family.
Flores took over as the head coach of Atletico Madrid three days after Hill's farewell. It was the first personnel appointment of the new head Orrezo. One season has passed, and the ninth place in the league is better than last season.
The fourth place was far behind. The Copa del Rey entered the final and the Europa League entered the final. These two results barely allowed Orezzo to save some face.
But in terms of employment, there is nothing particularly brilliant about Flores.
Uruguayan forward Diego Forlan was the top scorer in La Liga in the 0809 season with 32 goals last season, surpassing Eto'o, Messi, Villa, Higuain, Henry, Raul and other famous players, and was the second top scorer.
Argentinian Aguero also scored 17 goals, which is 080
In the 9th season, Atletico Madrid became the third strongest offensive team after Barcelona and Real Madrid with 80 goals. It was only slightly inferior in defense, ranking in the middle and lower reaches of the defensive ability with 57 goals conceded. Compared with Barcelona's 35 goals conceded, Seve
There is a big gap between Leah's 39 goals conceded.
Generally speaking, Atletico Madrid last season was strong in offense and weak in defense, and finally qualified for the Europa League in fourth place. This was also due to the excellent performance of the South American duo of Forlán and Aguero.
This season, it seems that they have reached the finals of both the Copa del Rey and the Europa League, but Flores has indeed not solved the fundamental problem of Atletico Madrid. Let’s put it this way, not to mention the fundamental problem, it is just the superficial problem of strong offense and weak defense.
He didn't even solve it!
In this season's league, until the last round after the Europa League finals, in the 37 rounds of the league, the number of goals scored by Atletico Madrid dropped sharply to 57, and the number of goals conceded has already caught up with last season.
It has reached 58. The power of the South American double guns this season is greatly reduced compared to last season. Forlan currently has 18 goals and Aguero has 12. The two have only 30 goals combined.
Not as many goals as Forlán alone last year.
In terms of defenders, in view of last season's poor defense, Betis' old captain Juanito and Uruguayan star Cabrera were introduced, but they eventually became substitutes, and the latter was basically useless.
The departure of Heitinga left the team without a right back for a while. The return of Perea has not been reassuring. His defensive awareness is really poor and he always allows the opponent to easily pick up the ball on the wing. Speaking of Dutch defense general Heiting
He was bought from Ajax for 8.8 million in 2008, and sold to Everton of the Premier League for 7 million a year later in August 2009. This approach was also the last stupid thing Hill did during his tenure.

The number of goals scored by the South American duo of Forlan and Aguero has dropped sharply this season because they received too little support. Atletico Madrid's assists throughout the season were only 34, of which Forlan contributed 7 assists, and Aguero contributed 7 assists.
Cuero contributed 5 assists, José Jurado contributed 4, and the three players accounted for nearly half of the 16. Counting the returning rotation main player Reyes, who contributed 5 in 19 games, the three main players
One substitute accounted for 61.7% of the total assists.
It’s still these four players, Forlan, Aguero, Jurado and Reyes. Their goals are 18, 12, 7 and 2 respectively. The 39 goals account for all 57 goals.
68.4%.
In other words, as long as these four offensive points are contained on the field, Atletico Madrid will be misfired 60% to 70% of the time!
The assists are weak and the forwards cannot get enough artillery shells. Naturally, there is a problem in the midfield. Both Jurado and Reyes "returned" separately this season. Last season, they were loaned to Real Mallorca.
And Benfica, after being recalled this season, it has not fundamentally solved Atletico Madrid's "brainless midfielder" problem.
"The midfielder is brainless" is indeed Cholo's angry criticism. Although it doesn't sound good, it makes sense if you analyze it carefully. Among Atletico Madrid's midfielders, Reyes is called the golden boy, but he is suffering from injuries and it is difficult to be a good player.
The core and pillar, the 24-year-old Jurado only played three games in the Real Madrid first team before being recruited by Hill in 2006, and spent most of his time in the Real Madrid second team. Jurado is still growing, so for the time being
Nor is it the core and brain of the midfielder.
In Flores's original idea, as the core of the midfielder, it should be Portuguese midfielder Pedro Simão. He is 31 years old and a member of the Portuguese national team. He is fast and has strong breakthrough ability and is relatively mature in experience, but...
...There were only 2 assists in 108 successful breakthroughs throughout the season. This kind of organizational efficiency is indeed weak.
As for the defensive midfielder Paul Assuncao, he is at least an engineer-type defensive midfielder. Simao, Reyes, and Jurado are all midfielders who are strong in offense and weak in defense. Paul Assuncao is more of a substitute for them.
The data of 81 fouls, 11 yellows and 1 red throughout the season also shows that the Brazilian midfielder has more responsibility to stabilize the defense.
Another midfielder, Thiago, is a Portuguese midfielder on loan from Juventus. As a midfielder who rotates with Reyes, Thiago's offensive and defensive balance focuses more on defense. He committed 39 fouls and 7
He received a yellow card and made 14 offensive breakthroughs, 15 shots, 2 goals and 1 assist, which also shows that he is a "box-to-box" midfielder type, not an organizer.
Salvio, a young player born in the 1990s who is known as "Little Messi", is not even the core of the organization. He has only played less than 10 games in the league and cup, and they are all insignificant games.
It is true that there is no core midfielder. In fact, if Forlan's position is moved back and Salvio or other players are pushed up to the front, it will leave more room for Forlan to run and dribble.
Just like last season, this is how Forlan was used in the Uruguay national team!
Haha, it seems that it is not Atletico Madrid's "brainless midfielder", but the problem of head coach Flores. He has such a core but abandons it. Then, no one else can blame him!

Oh, there is another midfielder. Another Uruguayan player who complemented Forlan last season, the 24-year-old Raul Garcia, was shelved by Flores this season.
The players under coach Lei who played full time have appeared more in the Copa del Rey and Europa League this season, and have only played less than one-third of the games in the league.
Chen Zhuo wrote the name "Raul Garcia" on the paper at hand. Not only did he think about it, but after combing it through in detail, he found that Atletico Madrid's personnel are not weak in personal ability and can reach the King's Cup and the Europa League.
The cup final also illustrates this point. It fell to ninth place in the league simply because the coach did not make good use of his personnel.
Especially this Raul Garcia, a starter in the Copa del Rey and Europa League, and a rotation in the league. Is he the reason why Atletico Madrid's results in the cup and the league are so different this season? His perfect attendance and performance last season
Is the high absence rate this season the reason why Forlan and Aguero's goals have dropped sharply?
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but pick up the phone and dial Moniz's number, asking him to send Raul Garcia's detailed information.
"You lunatic! It's three o'clock in the morning, and you're not only a coach, you're also playing football! You've been working hard all day, aren't you tired?" Moniz complained angrily on the phone.
Oops, that’s true, I need to rest as soon as possible. Just like Moniz said, he is still a player, and enough sleep time is the guarantee of physical strength.
However, even though I stayed up a little late, it was not without gain!
