Atletico suddenly resurrected, just like Barca, the two teams suddenly found their form at the end of February, of course, some of Simeone's recent adjustments seem to be successful, recently Simeone actually encountered some injuries to the team, but he did change his mind, at least it was completely different from the way he thought at the beginning of the season, and the team's recent changes in thinking can be seen from the game against Cadiz.
The backline is really a five-back, and the most recent idea is to make the backline increase its speed, which is different from the beginning of the season
Recently is basically a real five defenders, but one of the important points is that the team's side is basically the use of fast players, relying on this to improve the ability to defend, at least recently conceded a lot less, this is also the key, Rainierdo is actually a fast defender, the recent performance is also good, at least can help the team solve a lot of defensive problems, in fact, rely on speed to assist defense, solve the center-back's recent turning speed slowly, always lose the position of the problem, but set-piece defense, these players really can not help, The team conceded the ball in this game, or the set-piece conceded, the stability of the center-back at this time is very important, Carrasco and Llorente this game should be counted as a wing-back, in fact, they are also fast players, this may be Simeone suddenly figured out, to know that Bayern is actually a similar idea, in the middle of the back is unstable, Davis is very important, his reading back defense, indeed let Bayern solve a lot of defensive problems, but also solve the problem of slow turning of the center-back. This change is crucial, but the team's centre-backs still need to buy players.
The biggest embarrassment in midfield was Cork, who didn't perform well
Kork returned, the performance is average, in fact, his current speed is the problem, the recent Atletico is the state of acceleration, Corker is obviously not in the rhythm of the line, but look at the back of the game Simeone's thinking, Cork position may still have to change, De Paul is getting better and better, suddenly become the core of the team's midfield, attack and defense are the core, and this game still has a goal, which is also the reason for Atletico's recent performance, the midfield has at least one core, and the performance is good, also very versatile.
The most recent change in the front line is Felix
This part is interesting, at least in February, many people think that Felix is not good, the level is declining, coming to Atletico is wrong, but after this round of matches, Felix has scored consecutive goals in recent matches, and basically scored the team's first goal, and basically showed his ability, fast, flexible, good foot skills, and finally got a stable starting position, which is very important. So in the case of the overall acceleration of the team, Felix did play better and better. Suarez can play as a substitute, Griezmann is still in poor shape, and it feels like Felix and Cunha are going to become the team's starting strikers.
So Atletico's recent progress is to speed up, the last few games Atletico should not lose, and conceded fewer goals, Simeone's adjustment period has passed, the next is to play Manchester United, from the recent performance of the game, Atletico has a chance to win Manchester United.
