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. He might be able to stand Real Madrid for the race but the current form of Barcelona is too good to allow Atletico win this league this season, they are not going anywhere even this season.
