Real would be really stupid to let go of Ancelotti, really stupid, what a short sighted club that is.
Man City have better individual players than Atletico though. The fact that Atletico have been a much better team in the past two seasons says more about the quality of their respective coaches. One can't do shit in the CL despite having an amazing squad, while the other keeps punching above his weight despite the fact that most of his players would not start for a City or a Chelsea.
Athletico madrid got a coach who actually knows how to defend. They got a backline thats defensively superior to Manchester City in every position. Considering organisation, workrate, positioning, their midfield is 4 times better then Manchester City.
City has a few players that are ALOT better offensive and creation wise, but they arent properly backed up. They cant controll space. They have a shitting sack of potatoes for selfless workrate, All their defenders including Kompany are overrated apart from 1v1 duels, whilst Nastasic requires proper coaching.
The only teams that would suit Simeone would be Juventus and Chelsea, who both have a coach that is not going to be replaced anytime soon.
Real madrid, in great contrast to barcelona, have allways been short sighted, stupid, retarded and idiotic considering their vision. Remember when they had ONE defensive midfielder, Makelele and they sold him for Beckham ? Yes.
Madrid had key injuries and Ronaldo is getting back into form. If they fire ancelotti, they are stupid as fuck, once again.
