Can’t believe that we haven’t been sniffing around Upamecano of Liepzig. Looks a fantastic defender imo
He looks class doesnt he ?
Don't they always play like this.Atletico do realize this is a knock out tie and not two legs right?
Why are they so defensive?

It's the modus operandi. Keep it as tight as a gnats chuff, maybe nick a goal or take it to pens. They don't concede many so this could be 0-0 after ETAtletico do realize this is a knock out tie and not two legs right?

Atletico are basically Burnley but with more exotic surnames.
Do they run anyone over, or do they just do exactly this ?
I’m not sure I understand the question.

It's what they do. That night at Anfield, when they scored 3, was an abberation.Atletico do realize this is a knock out tie and not two legs right?

Nagelsmann said pre match maybe Atletco isn't 100% matchfit after the longer league break, like Real and Atalanta
and they seem to keep the pace high to use that possible advantage.
Bringing Forsberg later on is part of his matchplan to win the tie late.
And Upamecano, still 21...

As in, they play like this, without running anyone over, then win.

Upamecano.......although he hasn’t had a lot to do........what he has done ......he has done well. Seems to have a good range of passes.....with both feet. Composed, confident........well impressed so far.
Can imagine our ongoing negotiation for Koulibaly with ADL & then us lot watching Upamecano tonight & immediately putting the phone down.
Upamecano has always impressed me whenever i’ve seen him play in the European games but not seen him domestically.
Probably more of the acid test would be up against Neymar & Mbappe before anyone starts bidding the big bucks for him.

Must've been those Anfield lights that inspired them.

i think he renewed his contract recently. Not sure. Anyone in for him after the competition may have to Fork out a lot more. Good player despite being so young.

But a bit more expansive than Burnley
