E366: Barça batter Atlético Madrid as Champions League draw opens up
Added 2024-03-18 14:43:14 +0000 UTCOne, two, three. Atlético Madrid had not lost at home in LaLiga in 25 games, but Barcelona smashed them 3-0 on Saturday to extend their own unbeaten streak to 10 matches and become the first team to beat Atlético at the Metropolitano in the league since... Barcelona in January 2023.
Sam and Toni reflect on Barça's good run, which has now included wins over Napoli and Atlético, Robert Lewandowski's form, players stepping up with others injured and increased intensity in training. Rik then joins to give his player ratings ahead of a full return to action later this week.
Finally, Sam and Toni look on a Champions League draw, which has opened up for Barça -- as long as they can eat their fish -- and the resignation of the club's vice president of finance Eduard Romeu last week.

I am convinced after yesterday that Simeone has a serious complex post traumatic stress situation regarding Barca. It’s like he is conditioned from the Messi days. So he sees Barca and he loses his mind. Why and how did he think it’s a good idea to start with a flat back 5 at home against THIS Barca..unbelievable!! Regardless of their form.. once they play Barca , Atleti’s game is different
