Miscellaneous
November 9th 2012 The One when we flopped (twice) Without sounding full alarms we do acknowledge and analyze the two consecutive defeats (the second one being specially unexpected and astonishing) that wash away Atleti's long held records as an undefeated side for over a year and the all time European consecutive wins mark. After letting go of both nice-to-have honorary mentions it is time to get back on track and get a good result versus Getafe to regain the victory track and keep having a comfortable gap with the third team in La Liga. We deal with current affairs that worry Atleti supporters such as a injuries of players for next matches the international matches coming up and what that means for certain Atletico players and how wobbly some of the second line players are proving to be not even deserving a spot as fringe players. Will we see some fringe rotation in the December transfer market window? We welcome cantera expert Billy Edwards (@BillyEdwards94 on Twitter) aboard to talk about la cantera though we did have some audio and connectivity problems. We promise to have him on again in the following weeks with more time for him to give his views. Ricardo Menendez (@rickyam on Twitter) co hosts the Spanish version of the show Esto es Atleti.
