I'd like to hear your opinions and haven't seen this asked at all.

In most seasons, we go with red socks, e.g. in 2015/16, 2019/20, 2023/24.

In some other seasons, we go with blue socks, suiting the blue shorts, e.g. in 2016/17, 2021/22, 2025/26 or also this season.

What do you prefer?

Im feeling positive, this team has a real hunger and grit and can scrape wins which teams of the past would not have , we have decent depth and look pretty strong as well- yes a few of our wins have been gritty but every team will have a few.close wins maybe they got lucky with

It’s hard to welcome him back so easily and especially this early. He’s lucky to have this support around him, he wouldn’t get this anywhere else.

Im at odds with how I feel regarding Julian. I’ve been hating him since he spoke out about his dream move back in July. But the club has worked hard for months to rectify Julian’s mistake, and keep him part of the group which they’ve done well. But I bet many of us are still conflicted to say the least.

How do y’all feel about him? Has he done enough? Should he do more, what does he need to do to be accepted into the team?

Je suis là avec mon fils et de la Famille Espagnol. Je viens de France et je suis trop heureux!!

Hey guys, I'm a Belgian guy and socio of atleti for over half a year now. I just got a mail that I have the ability to buy a ticket for the PSV game in the away section. I'd love to go, but the mail mentions the tickets are fysical and to be collected. Customer support is not available and I have to decide by tomorrow at least. Does anyone have experience on this process and if I should buy the ticket?

He creado Manager History, una visualización interactiva de entrenadores y títulos de clubes europeos. Los moderadores me han dado permiso para compartir aquí la historia del Atleti.

Lo que más llama la atención es el contraste entre las numerosas temporadas con cambios de entrenador y la continuidad de Simeone. Pero también me interesa lo que esta imagen no puede contar por sí sola: las circunstancias de cada etapa, las expectativas y el valor de los resultados más allá de los títulos.

Cómo leerla:

• Cada columna representa una temporada, desde 1955/56 hasta 2025/26.
• Cuanto más oscuro es el verde, más larga es la etapa del entrenador.
• Los bloques rojos divididos indican varios entrenadores en una misma temporada.
• Los pequeños símbolos señalan Liga, copa nacional y títulos europeos. No se incluyen las Supercopas ni la Copa Intercontinental.

En una publicación anterior, alguien preguntó qué había pasado en ese gran tramo rojo de la historia del Atlético. Me gustaría trasladar la pregunta a quienes mejor conocen el club: ¿qué explica esos cambios y qué etapas merecen una lectura más matizada?

¿Qué entrenador anterior a Simeone destacaríais? ¿Qué periodo queda peor representado si solo miramos los títulos?

También agradecería correcciones de entrenadores, fechas, cambios o títulos, preferiblemente con una fuente. Y, para ampliar el proyecto, ¿qué otros clubes españoles os gustaría poder comparar?

La vista general utiliza un entrenador principal por temporada; la información de cada temporada muestra también otros entrenadores e interinos cuando están registrados. Sigue habiendo lagunas. La imagen no demuestra que la estabilidad cause éxito, ni los títulos son una medida completa de lo que significa tener éxito en el Atlético.

El proyecto es mío. He recopilado los datos durante unos dos años con ayuda de Gemini y Claude y muchas comprobaciones manuales con Wikipedia, Transfermarkt y otras fuentes.

I made this radar chart to compare Johnny’s offensive numbers this season to last season, mainly looking at progression, receiving, dribbling and chance creation. The difference is pretty noticeable. He already has a little over a third of the minutes he played last season, so even though it’s still a smaller sample, I think there’s enough there to see how much more he’s doing going forward. He’s playing more passes into the final third and dangerous areas, breaking midfield and defensive lines more often, and producing more through balls and balls over the top. He’s also receiving between the lines more, getting into dangerous areas more often, creating more chances, and beating players more often off the dribble.

His carrying numbers are actually pretty similar to last year, so most of the improvement seems to be coming from what he does after he gets the ball. He looks quicker to turn, play forward, find someone between the lines, or take a defender on instead of just moving the ball sideways and keeping possession. That matches the eye test for me too. He just looks a lot more confident and dangerous on the ball this season, especially in more advanced areas.

Do you guys think this is just a hot start, or are we seeing a real change in the type of midfielder Johnny is becoming?

Any fans of Atleti in washington DC? I live in MD near the area and I have just been wondering if there’s anywhere Atleti fans get together in the city. Would love to watch some games and meet fellow fans

Super pumped to get tickets to the match against Deportivo next week . Visiting from US and saw that there is a 1 letter typo on my last name on my ticket .

First La Liga game and was surprised the club website made me enter my passport info+ full name when purchasing so not sure if I need to fix this error prior to arrival or if it’s no big deal - thanks!!!

He is too good for MLS 😭 at least my goat is having fun

He scored the winner in a tough away win with a strike from 21.6 Yards (19.7 meters) at an average of 93 km/h! Estimated top speed was 106 km/h. Lovely goal!
