Simeone is not the only one that have stayed in a club for more than a decade but what kept those coaches there was their good performance and Simeone has equally done that but in the past. Honestly, i was very disappointed with what Atletico Madrid played against Espanyol, the result I saw was not what I expected, despite Espanyol are the hosting of the game, I expected a victory from Atletico Madrid because they are among the strongest teams in the league which are expected a win from them. Espanyol did a very wonderful job by proving me wrong by winning their first match of the season at their own home. It was a big win for them and equally a very starting point

14 years of career is like grooming a baby to become an adult, that duration is very long to be honest 8 trophies under this year is something great that deserves some recognition but there should be a time we call it a quit. I'm very sure that there are more qualified coaches in Fifa that can do much more job than him but they didn't bring another person. Let's even say they couldn't find another person right now, they could have gave him 1 year contract to make changes later but they gave him 2 years to 2027.

I don't know what to call it but the situation is a bit awkward. Unless Simeone is having some stakes in Atletico Madrid for him to turn the club to a family investment, by now the team would have free him of his duty because I'm not sure if he is going to win Laliga trophy this season.

You're right Simeone deserves some accolades for doing that much for the club but because of his style of play he can't be given much credit. I don't really think there are many coaches that can do this much for them and it's not really easy to challenge the likes of Barcelona and Real Madrid. In my opinion I think It's better to be loyal and be with a person that can assure top performance than risk it and try to appoint a new manager that has a 50/50 chance success. Things might even get worse for them so they better stick with him till the end and besides getting a good coach is not easy now and there is no many qualified coaches around anymore unless the ones that failed in managing a team and got sacked and I don't think appointing them is the right thing to do.

They always make it to the champions league and always end 3rd and sometimes challenge for the title and even win at times which is good enough if u ask me.
