'Messi & Ronaldo Will Not Last For 100 Years'

Diego Simeone feels Atletico Madrid will be able to break Barcelona and Real Madrid's dominance in La Liga once Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo retire. Atletico clinched their first league title since 1996 in the 2013/2014 campaign but relinquished their crown to Barcelona this season.

MSN is the best trio in all European Leagues !

Guess what ? MSN is the best trio in all European Leagues ! With 81 goals and 39 assists in la liga, they just surpassed others teams front lines. The incredible fact with this trio is that it's their first year to play together, and they founded the way to be complementary like they always played together. But the most remarkable player of the trio for me is Suarez, who didn't begin the league but finish it with 16 goals and 14 assists ! This guy is just incredible. They will probably finish as the best trio in all European competitions, and will give us spectacular performances for the next season.
