Mandzukic wins a foul off the ref for once, ironically when it wasn't really a foul :lol: Ramos and Carvajal both gotten away with reds when the ref wasn't looking (for the kick-out at Koke and punch into Mandzukic' stomach respectively).
 
I don't get the Koke hype. Every time I've seen him play he's been rather poor.

He's not had a good season. Which always sends you back to the question - "was it the potential or the performance" that impressed people last season. He's 23 now, and he's supposed to be the natural successor to Xavi, but I'm still really not sure how good he is.
 
Pidgy's Obvious Point of the Day #36375. Bloody hell Atletico really are boring as feck to watch, aren't they?
 
Seriously Atletico are walking a tightrope leaving Mandzukic on the pitch here.
 
Has Benzema left his brain at home for this match?
 
That slow mo replay of Vidal falling on his arse was nothing short of utterly hilarious.
 
I can't not be impressed with Marcelo's attacking ability.

On another note Simeone has to get Torres on

Xavi wasn't the finished article at 23 either.
 
Pidgy's Obvious Point of the Day #45893. Every time we see two Spanish sides against one another in an important game, the match is filled with diving, feigning injury and dirty challenges.

Really? I think he's had a good season. Offensively hasn't quite had the same output because he's got more to do defensively now. Understandable since Alteico have replaced one offensive player(Costa) for two(Griezmann, Mandz) not to mention the two new left backs. But thats a discussion for another day.
