Don't be surprised that people are mostly picking between Barcelona and Real Madrid to win the league because they have been the most consistent over the years, when it comes to the league titles. Atletico Madrid always fall off along the line. We have seen that happen over the years and it has kept on repeating years after years. So we ain't expecting anything different from them this time. Atletico Madrid will not win the league believe me. Not when Real Madrid and Barcelona are this close to them. Atletico Madrid would have had the chance of winning if either Barcelona, Madrid or both are struggling presently. But they are not, so since they ain't struggling but in good forms, Atletico Madrid will always be the odd Man in their midst. They don't have this winning mentality that Barcelona and Real Madrid players have developed over the years.
On point. Real Madrid and Barcelona are so mean when it comes to winning titles, and they will never get tired. However, let's not underestimate Atletico because they have a good squad this season compared to previous seasons. These set of players might have the motivational spirit to be desperate for the title this season. It's good to see them competing with the league favorites.
I'm not really surprised about Atletico Madrid determination to win the trophy again. Diego Simeone has spent quite enough time in this league, to deliver more than one league title to the club. But it's quite unfortunate that they are having one of the best seasons when both Madrid and Barcelona are flying high. Last season it was only Real Madrid that were having a good season, if Atletico had been in this form then it would have been better. In a three horse race, I don't just see the possibility of Atletico Madrid winning. I'm not underrating them but it's just the reality.
