With the slight advantage of the 1-0 home win its sets up a good game tonight. I feel we will win but only because Koeman has set the Copa Del Rey as his priority....... Even if we win its not like it will be a confidence boost. In fact im sure it will work against us. Saying that, quite alot of things have worked against us. Nevertheless its a ticket into the semi's and the only positive thing the club will be able to boast. Prediction 1-3 Im never right with my predictions anyway.... Player to watch DAVID F*CKING VILLA AMUNT
player to watch: HOPEFULLY david villa if he manages to block out whatever koeman is saying to him before matches that makes him have such bad form!
Hildebrand, Caneira, Albiol, Helguera, Miguel, Marchena, Maduro, Banega, Joaquín, Mata y Villa. Vs Falcón, Valera, Parea, Eller, Antonio López, Reyes, Cléber, Maxi, Luis García, Forlán y Agüero. Game kicks off now. 20:45 local spainish time.
lets hope we (athletico) score a couple more this half. i really dont want to win this match. id rather be relegated than koeman keeping his job
Koeman should have been fired months ago according to our results. But he hasnt. Obviously there is something going on behind the scenes. Lets face it. We can loose our next 5 games but untill we are in the relegation zone, for the sake of Solers own dignity he wouldnt want to fire a manager then made to look bad again. I dont think Soler is in any rush. Our only hope is now in the players hand.
