Willian would make Atletico the best team in Spain

As the manager of the third best team in Spain, Diego Simeone has led a revolution in the La Liga. No longer is the league a two club spectacle, Simeone has shown that others can also compete. As well as taking the La Liga by storm, Diego’s Atlético have also dominated the Champions League, firmly establishing Spain as the number one domestic league in the world.

Atlético Madrid usually play a 4-4-2 that turns into a 4-2-4 in attack. The system relies on the forwards and wingers pressing from the front. With Yannick Carrasco on one flank and Willian on the other, Atlético would be unstoppable from a pressing point of view and an attacking one. On top of that, Antoine Griezmann usually drifts into the wide channels which would thus allow Willian to operate centrally.

For Willian, the move would allow him to play in the best league in the world in a team on the verge of taking over Spain.
