He was quite good for his first season here, he had okay-ish stats. Not too many players were sold after their first season here, especially after contributing at least something. Also, we were total shit that year as we ended 7th, but you can't say Diego had some support by other players. We still had Legro, Grygera, Molinaro, Iaquinta, Amauri and others. He was actually one of the few players who showed something on the field in that season. So yeah, really.

And no, I'm not saying that because Atletico reached this far, nor because he scored that screamer. I just think he's a decent player and if anything I think he deserved one more season here.
Tactically he didn't suit us once Delneri came in and used wingers.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure he'll go down in history as a failed talent, but I wouldn't mind seeing him picking up a CL medal before that.

C'mon. This guy was pretty cack while his teammate Quaresma was earning league player of the year accolades. What does that tell you? I ain't wishing any CL success on an underachiever like that, despite my wishes for Atletico to prevail.

people will never let this die even though from then on Juve has had better talents than him come in, just like Napoleanic will never let the Juve Celtic tie go, even if Juve wins 10 CL titles

Celtic will still be jizzing in 2024 over their defeat of Barcelona in 2012.

Atletico substitute. Achievement unlocked. Underachiever supreme.

Lock this thread already. DDD = Diego. Done. Deal-with-it.
