Simeone demands decisiveness and quality minutes. It’s exactly what Memphis gives you Power. That was the word Simeone repeated ad nauseam when one looked at the standings and felt that it was very cold in the ‘cholismo’ corner. Cholo’s ship, always full, emptied every day, until that word so advocated and called became flesh with Atleti. Power. Aside from the benefits of the almighty Antoine, Simeone’s universal soldier, one of the proper names that promotes this power isMemphis DePay. His arrival divided athletics into two streams. The most pessimistic, that of the ‘lying down seven’, who claimed a clean ‘9’ that didn’t fit the Dutchman’s profile. And the most optimistic, that of the ‘ club of’DAO
‘ (*athletic definition of those players that Barça “gives away” semi-free because they are not worth it and they succeed at Atleti), who every time they smell a goal scorer coming from Camp Nou, go to the road towards Neptuno . Perhaps both streams are right with Memphis.
He’s not a pure ‘9’, he’s not a ruthless goalscorer and maybe he’s not the great piece Atleti will have to look for this summer, but it’s starting to become clear that it was a great opportunity in the market, that the 3 million that it cost could be a “bargain” and that the boy landed on his feet in the Metropolitan. First, because he has assumed that he will arrive to add. Second, because he’s starting to get in shape and train conscientiously. And third, because he has accepted that his role will grow exponentially in a locker room where all egos are secondary to the best interests of the team. That Atleti fans are cyclothymic about the players is nothing new. In the Metropolitan one goes, excuse me, from whore to nun in the blink of an eye. And vice versa. Memphis got into a tight market, in the middle of a war economy and that, while not Van Basten, shows that it increases internal competition. Memphis has already shown on two occasions that in addition to quality, they also have attitude, know where they stand and want to be important in that dressing room. And break or stagnate, that’s great news for Cholo. Since arriving at Atleti, Simeone has actively and passively repeated a maxim: the number of minutes does not matter, but the quality of the minutes. The ones from Memphis are there. It has cost three million and has already billed three goals in two plays. One in singleton, another with finesse and another one that bursts the plow. If he continues his progression, Memphis will make the ‘DAO Club’ happy. The gasoline is the same that flowed through the veins village AndSuarez . The progress. There is no more powerful engine for a man than to prove him wrong. There is no more powerful fuel than that.And that’s ground gold for Simeone
