La Liga / Copa Del Rey Ole

Huge win for Atletico away to Real Sociedad. Had lost 3 of their last 4 away to La Real but a really good performance - result never really in doubt after Hermoso scored the first. It's good to see a performance like that with both Gimenez and Felix missing, shows the depth the squad has. 

Puts them 3 points ahead of Real with a game in hand and 6 ahead of Real Sociedad in 3rd with 3 games in hand. 

Too early to say if they'll win the league but it was clear last season that they were developing into a very good side - Simeone regualrly described it as a transition season. Players like Carrasco, Hermoso, Tripper, Felix and Felipe who joined that season have come on leaps and bounds after that first season whilst Llorente can probably say he has consistently been the best player in the league so far this season. 

A long way to go though, partido a partido. Getafe next - Simeone has taken charge of Atleti 17 times against Getafe. He has never lost and in that time Atletico have scored 33, conceding 0. It would be very Atleti to f**k up against them now.

Aye big win was keeping an eye on it, think Sociedad's loss at the weekend took the wind out of their sails a bit but still an excellent result.

Banter club-
Barcelona are in talks to sign Arsenal and Germany defender Shkodran Mustafi, 28, on a free transfer when his contract at the Emirates expires in the summer. (SPOX via 90 min)
Even on a free transfer they're being done. He's an absolutely shocking player.

Can't see that, more likely it was Espanyol.

Gnabry, who was regarded as a total dumpling, has done very well at Bayern since he left Arsenal. Monreal must be delighted that he left for Real Sociedad.

Tbf, Arsenal got silly money for Iwobi and sicknote Oxlade-Chamberlain. But they've spunked loads on duds like Pepe, Mari, Saliba and Soares

Where are we reckoning big Deegs Costa is off to? 

I thought I read he was taking a break for family reasons?

Personal reasons were the official reason but Spanish TV were saying that there was an incident during training with coaching staff. 

Good win for Atletico yesterday against Alaves considering the conditions and how good Alaves are taking points off better sides. They've already beaten Real this season and drew with Barca. Once again, Marcos Llorente was fantastic - must be considered one of the best midfielders in Europe based on his performances this year.

Massive late winner from Suarez, also with Real dropping point game before last against somebody they are in a great position.  Still think they'll get reeled in but its going to be close.
