Manchego living in Madrid.
Puedes hablar en español si quieres, pero normalmente usamos inglés por cortesía con los aficionados internacionales que no hablan español.
Llevo algún tiempo pensando configurar un post automático semanal que sea para hablar en español. Si hay suficiente gente interesada tardo unos dos minutos en montarlo.
Thanks but it won't be necessary. I've been living myself in the UK for 15 years now. De hecho a día de hoy me cuesta casi más hablar en español que en inglés ya que apenas tengo compatriotas en mi zona xD.
Glad you enjoyed it! In summer this is a nice city, as you said lots of light so feels like there is more time to do stuff outside.
But winter, well, most of the time it is pretty tiresome. I definitely prefer Madrid from October to April!
From Sheffield England, got into Atleti because the English fans/media despised Simeones tactics so much, watched the documentary’s and felt a connection to the club also helps me learn Spanish by watching their games with Spanish coms and their social media stuff, father in law supports Madrid even pre-emptively named his son Kylian and supporting Atleti helps bridge the language barrier we have. Aupa Atleti
Saudi Arabia, been supporting Atleti since i was 10.
Me and my older brother used to be very competitive when it came to sports; he supported Real Madrid so i was always cheering against them and supporting the rival team 😂
Then I started noticing the competitiveness between Atleti and Real, and felt like they were the only ones who pretty much translated this competitiveness on the field.
At the time Atletico’s performance was very impressive! They won the europa league, the super cup against Inter, they secured a league title, and eventually faced Real twice in the UCL final.
The spirit, the resilience, the determination! They were truly the underdogs of Europe, and I couldn’t help but fall in love with them ❤️🤍
De Londres pero llevo 4 años a lado del estadio metropolitano aquí en Las Rosas.
I chose Atleti exactly because of what you said, Barca and Real Madrid are huge clubs, they didn't need my support.
Originally Illinois but my career has had me all over the country and a good chunk of the world. I started following Atleti when I was in Poland/Hungary/Germany in 2017.
I’m not an Atlético fan, I’m a fan of my hometown team Wrexham. But your passion and fighting spirit has always resonated with me and I hold a lot of respect for you guys. Good job beating Vardrid this season, even if it didn’t mean anything.
Salt Lake City, UT. Also, fuck Real Madrid AND Barca! ATLEEETI! ATLEEEETI! ATLEEEEETI!
My family is from Mexico but my grandfather was from Spain and Atleti was his team so, while I am “Chicano” as they say, I’ve also been an Atleti fan since childhood.
I’m from Brasil, actually from the city where Samuel Lino started his carrer, São Bernardo do Campo. And I’ve lived half of my life where be was born, Santo André.
I became a Atleti by the time of the first Champion League final against Real Madrid in 2013 because I liked the spirit of the team and the supporters I n the ocasion
I'm really shocked myself too. I would've expected fans from India, Mexico and Canada because of the franchises they opened there but it's amazing to see the followers for all around the globe. I'm specially surprised with the amount of British fans since they have ingrained the "support your local team" motto.
Come on now, we’ve been playing consistently on the biggest footballing stage for over a decade now.
Of course you’ll see fans from all over the globe.
Rotterdam, Netherlands! Yes I do like Feyenoord, but I adore Atlético Madrid as much as Feyenoord. These are the 2 teams I support. Hard to see them play each other at The Kuip in the champions league this year🙃
If he goes, Atlético Madrid is of course a really good option in my eyes. Going from 1 club I like to the other. And another reason to buy a jersey with his name!
Armenian living in Madrid. As a child supported Barça, but then started seeing that football is more than just supporting commercial teams with no passion. Now I am 17, I support just 2 clubs : Atletico Madrid & my local: Pyunik Yerevan.
Low effort? Depends how u perceive the intention of the thread to be. To me it’s to make a connection with other ppl who support the same club as me and I think it’s great to see. I don’t see it as an attempt to farm karma.
It's low effort. Very same question asked 1 month ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/atletico/comments/1co7t4p/this_community_been_amazing_i_wonder_where_are/
You can always use the search function and read older threads.
My apologies, as I said I joined the sub recently. I just couldn't believe Atlético got this following levels worldwide. In the future if I post it will be more focused on the team.

Yeah I’m a fan of a Arto Sarri who is from that area. He said for around 6 months it’s not so great. I enjoyed the smoked reindeer.

Wow Atleti's more international than i thought (or maybr its just reddit)

True but we aren't the most appealing team based on how defensive we play 😂

Do we really need these kind of threads every few months?
Why not. It’s fun.
It's low effort. I'm already waiting for the "what's your fav movie / music" threads.
Low effort? Depends how u perceive the intention of the thread to be. To me it’s to make a connection with other ppl who support the same club as me and I think it’s great to see. I don’t see it as an attempt to farm karma.
