http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Diego-c11058 Simeone believes that the concept behind exchanging of shirts is not right as the person you’re giving your shirt to is your rival and your shirt is worth more than his.
Diego Simeone used to play under the Argentinean coach, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carlos-c8346 Salvador Bilardo, and he spoke about how his coach used to hate when the players exchanged their shirts.
The Atletico Madrid coach explained the concept behind it and stated how his coach thought about it.
“He always said that the shirt is not to be exchanged with the opponent, because our shirt is worth more than yours. I cannot give my shirt to a rival for theirs.”
In a recent interview, Simeone also explained how much pressure he has throughout the season as he has to play difficult games in the shape of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 and Real Madrid.
While explaining his point of view, the Argentinean mentor stated that four of the games are against bigger clubs such as Barcelona and Real Madrid, and the game against Los Blancos is considered to be a must-win.
“How many games are in a season? How many are against Madrid and Barca? Usually you have to win every game other than against Madrid and Barca, I have to win the game against the former.”
Currently, Diego Simeone’s men have been phenomenal in La Liga.
Right from the start of this season, Atletico Madrid have managed to impress the audiences around the world as they went shoulder to shoulder with La Blaugrana for quite some time.
It was not until two weeks ago when Atletico Madrid dropped points in order to give the first position solely to La Blaugrana, as it was being shared between the Catalan giants and Atletico Madrid.
However, despite being behind Barcelona, Atletico Madrid are still above their cross-town rivals, Real Madrid, who are also the reigning champions and are currently eight points behind the league leaders, Barcelona.
This season’s major motivation behind Atletico Madrid’s success has been there striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Radamel-Falcao-c30276, who has managed to score the major part of their goals and has helped them stay in the top four of the Spanish La Liga.
