Atletico Madrid 2015 - 2016

Kranevitter spotted at a Atletico Madrid training session on Thursday.

I hope we get him, even if it's in January, he looks class.

He is fucking good. My Argie mate says he'll be better than Mascherano.

I heard he is the new Mascherano too. We need a new DM, both Gabi and Tiago are getting old and Mario Suarez is gone.

We have signed Kranevitter. Our squad is complete. Unfortunately we are loaning him back to River Plate until January. Really excited with this signing, reckon he's going to be one of the best midfielders in the league once he settles in, on youtube he looks quality and I have heard lots of quality review about him.

Here is a good video of Kranevitter:



Lets compare the talent in the top 3 La Liga squads.

We (Atletico )have a core group of very talented players who are in their early twenties ( a lot of them are only 20 years old yet already get regular game time), very promising for the future:

Jan Oblak -22
Koke - 23
Oliver Torres - 20
Kranevitter - 22
Saúl Ñíguez - 20
Luciano Vietto - 21
Yannick Ferreira Carrasco - 21
Ángel Correa - 20
José Giménez - 20
Antoine Griezmann -24

If we place high buy-out clauses on all of them to ward of interest from DPL clubs then we are set to be a force in Europe for years to come.


Now on to Real Madrid who have recruited very well lately:

Varane - 22
Kroos -25
James Rodriquez - 24
Casemiro - 23
Carvajal -23
Mateo Kovačić - 21
Lucas Vázquez - 24
Jese - 22
Isco - 23
Cheryshev - 24
Danilo - 24

Perhaps even more talent there than we (Atletico) have.

In comparison though, and this is worrying for our fans, we (Barcelona) only have:

Neymar - 23
Rafinha -22
Bartra - 24
Marc-André ter Stegen - 23

That is it. Very worrying, our best players (apart from Neymar) are in their late twenties and early thirties. Soon the likes of Suarez, Messi and Busquets will begin to decline. Then we will have to spend a lot of money or we are screwed.
