Are Atletico Madrid better without Diego Costa?

The summer transfer window has come to an end, and the teams that were most active in the transfer market have left the scene. The main losers were:
* Barcelona;
* Atletico;
* the departure of the Portuguese player was a surprise, but not for the right reasons.
The first two teams have already started the new season in a good way, but the last one is still a bit unclear. The team’s performance in the domestic championship is not very good, and even the fans are not sure if the team will be able to compete for the title in the long run.

The departure of a player is not always a good thing, but this time it was the right decision. The reasons for his departure are not known, but it is known that the player wanted to leave the club, and he was not satisfied with the current situation.
It is worth noting that the club has already started to play better, and this is an indication that the team is ready to fight for the championship.
All the latest news on the Spanish championship
The start of the new championship season has already brought a lot of interesting results. The first matches of the campaign have shown that the Catalans are not going to give up and will fight for their place in the elite.
In the first rounds, the team was quite passive, but in the second half of the season, the game changed. The club managed to win the first three matches of La Liga, which is an excellent result for the team.
However, it is not the first time that the Catalan club has not been able to win in the first half of a season. The last time it happened was in the season of the previous century, when the team finished in the middle of the standings.
This time, the Catalons are the main favorites of the championship, and they will be the main competitors of the teams from Madrid and Barcelona.
What to expect from Atletico in the new year?
In summer, the club’ s performance in La Liga was not very successful, and it was obvious that the coach wanted to change the team’s tactics. However, the coach managed to do it, and now the team has a good chance to win gold medals.
As for the future, it will be very difficult for the club to compete with the leaders of the Spanish league. However this does not mean that the Atletico will not be able, because the team‘s main goal is to win a place in European competitions.
There is a good possibility that the Spanish team will not enter the Champions League, but they will try to enter the Europa League, which will be a great chance for the players to get some money.
Atletico Madrid in the Champions league
The team has already managed to enter two cups of the Champions, and in the future it will try even harder to win more trophies.
Of course, the main goal of the club is to enter European competitions, but at the same time, they want to win at the domestic arena as well. The Spanish team has the potential to become a real contender for the champion title, and its main competitors are:
1. Barcelona; 2. Real Madrid; 3. Atletico.
Barcelona has a long way to go, but now the club seems to be more motivated than its rivals. The Catalan club is ready for the fight and is ready not to stop.
Real Madrid has already entered the Champions this season, but there is still time for the Meringues to improve their results. However the team still has a chance to enter a higher European tournament, and if the club manages to do this, it can become a true champion.
Who will be next in the fight for gold medals?
The fight for a place at the top of the European football is already starting, and there are a lot more interesting competitions ahead. The teams that are in a better position are: Liverpool, Manchester City, Juventus, and Bayern.
If the teams do not enter a new tournament, then the season will be long and intense, and many leaders will leave the team, which can affect the results of the team in the next season.
Moreover, the teams are already in the last stages of the tournament, so the fight will continue until the last match. The leaders of each club will have to decide whether to continue the fight in the best league of the planet or to stop the game.
Will the fight continue in the Europa league?
This year, the Europa tournament will be held, which means that the clubs will have a lot to do. The tournament is a real test of strength, and each club has to show its best game. The Europa League is a tournament where the teams have to play against each other in the shortest time possible.
Among the strongest clubs are: Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham, and Arsenal. The latter is especially interesting because of the fact that the main star of the squad is Alexis Sanchez.
Despite the fact the team of the Chilean player has not yet managed to score a goal, the players of the Gunners are confident of achieving good results.
Manchester City is also in a strong position, and so is Chelsea. The Citizens have a good squad, and a lot can be done in the upcoming season.
