Appointed in December 2011, the Argentine manager has done a magnificent job at Atletico. Taking over a team that had not finished higher than fourth for a decade and a half, Simeone transformed Atleti into two-time Spanish champions and two-time Champions League runners-up.

Even in their worst campaigns under Simeone, Atletico have consistently finished in the top four and competed in the Champions League.

Atletico only just scraped past RB Leipzig with a last-minute winner on matchday one, before Simeone’s side lost back-to-back games to Benfica and Lille. Atletico’s manager is the highest-paid in Europe. It would be unrealistic to expect Simeone to keep up with Madrid and Barcelona year after year, but even some fans are starting to ask whether a change may be due sooner rather than later. “Starting with myself first, we have work to do and things to improve,” Simeone said after the loss to Real Betis. “I didn’t imagine anything different.

Julian Alvarez to score any time
A big-money summer signing from Manchester City, the aforementioned Alvarez is still finding his feet in the Spanish capital.
One of the reasons Alvarez left City is that he wanted more starts in his favoured central attacking berth.
However, the Argentina international has been used in a variety of different positions by Simeone, including as a wide forward and even as a wing-back. Alvarez has begun other matches on the bench.
But with two goals in his last four games, the former City star is slowly finding his feet in La Liga.
He has started up front in Atletico’s two most recent outings and he will probably get the nod in that position on Sunday too. Alvarez would be a wise choice in the anytime scorer market.
