Rodrigo De Paul and Ángel Correa with Atletico Madrid host Manchester United in the Champions League.

De Paul and Ángel Correa will want a win in their first leg match against Manchester United as Diego Simeone looks for a third Champions League final. Ángel Correa has been in incredible form for Atletico Madrid, scoring 11 goals in La Liga this season and being their top scorer.

Ángel Correa scored in Atletico’s last Champions League match in a 3-1 win vs. FC Porto as that was his only goal in the tournament this season. De Paul also scored in that match. Diego Simeone is rumored not to start De Paul in the match on Wednesday.

  1. Am I the only one to get @mamoun’s sarcasm ??? Because all those players are definitely not second tier players.
    We all have to agree here that Spurs is not the best team for the Argentine to prosper. May be Cuti Romero can prove me wrong and only time will tell.

  3. In case your eyes haven’t seen today any good football content, watch this Pablo Aimar highlight vs The Netherlands.

    Write in the Youtube search box “Pablo Aimar vs The Netherlands 2003 (Friendly) by Tella Amar” and enjoy those amazing skills of Pablito’s.

    I was a very big fan of Aimar in early 2000s and many of my friends in our neighbourhood used to call me Aimar back then when playing football.

    • Everytime I see Aimar it gives me pain that we couldn’t utilise such a talent like him. Only if our coaching stuff was sane back then. That is why I like Scaloni and Co more because they ain’t doing anything stupid like previous coaches.

    • Pablo Aimar was my apple of eye too….. still is……sad Maradona, did not even pick him in 2010 WC. Go watch ARG vs peru for WCQ 2010 ……… ARG looked sharp and made plethora of attacks after ages in that time….the only goal came from his assist….and the commentators were also talking about he and Messis understanding between each other. Still he was not picked up for the later qualifiers and also the WC. ARG would look much different if he was picked in 2010. Dumbfuck Veron was picked instead of him.

  4. Diego Simeone never win against CR team; let it be during Real Madrid and Juve clash. once he said, “If Ronaldo does not become a footballer, Atl Madrid should have won the CL trophy”

    Tonight it will be a different scenario, with the support of De Paul and Angel Correa, Atl Madrid will win against MU.

    I’m not digging at anyone but does Juan foyth look like second tier player?

    • Get with the program Godin, Foyth IS a 2nd rate player, as is Lamela and Celso, they’re all 2nd rate players, that’s why they failed at Tottenham, it was never the club’s fault because Spurs is one of the greatest clubs in history, with a trophy packed cabinet to prove it.
      I really hope that Dybala and Licha end up there and maybe Celso would end up crawling back also because playing for Spurs is the only way I can see for our boys to win the world cup!

      • Foyth is consistently good, it also depends on club, Hazard is average at Real Madrid but he was phenomenon at Chelsea, same goes for Lukaku at Chelsea, Countinho at Barça Griezamen at Barça.

      • By second grade player he may have meant that those guys are not world class, where as Cuti is definitely world class and soon he will be bought by a big club!

      • Totally disagree….one does not have to shine in big clubs to be 1st rated….think of Aimar Requelme Veron Totti Bati……not everyone belongs everywhere and the whole time GLC was injured at Spurs

        GLC looks like R Madrid material with the nt shirt on. It was just luck that he couldnt shine in spurs

    • Romero passing is amazing. I don’t understand why would they put his weakness is passing! His pin point passing is make him more better player then any other defender. Also Foyth issue is he should have made the same move long time ago. He was hanging around at Spurs for too long.
