“Europe’s Big Leagues: Atletico Madrid Emerges as the Most In Form Team, Surpassing Manchester City and Napoli”

Atletico Madrid have been a dominant force in La Liga in the second half of the season, and their recent form has been the best across Europe’s top five leagues. With 38 points from a possible 45 in the last 15 games, Atleti have won 12, drawn twice, and lost only once against Barcelona. They have outperformed even the likes of Manchester City, who have accumulated 37 points during that time, with only one draw swapped for a defeat.

One of the reasons for Atleti’s impressive run has been Antoine Griezmann, who leads La Liga in assists and has been instrumental in leading their attack. However, the exact reasons for their turnaround in form remain unclear, although Rodrigo de Paul recently hinted at some ideas in an interview with Football Espana.

In addition to Griezmann, Atletico have also found a settled formula that gets the best out of de Paul, Nahuel Molina, and Koke Resurreccion. Looking ahead to the next campaign, they will undoubtedly be frustrated by their poor start to the season, but their recent success suggests that they have finally found a winning formula that can carry them forward.

Since the World Cup, Atletico Madrid have accumulated 42 points from a possible 54, compared to just 24 points from 42 before. The only team to have beaten them during this time has been Barcelona. While Atleti may have missed out on the La Liga title this season, their impressive run of form bodes well for their future prospects, both domestically and in Europe.
