Barca really desperately trying to not to win La Liga this year. Away to midtable Levante with a win that would take them top (albeit having played a game more) and throw away a 2-0 and 3-2 lead to draw 3-3 on an 83rd minute equalizer

Was crazy that game at 2-0 I put it on because I needed three for my goals bet so I thought nothing else was on and then all of sudden itās 2-2
Said that the remaining fixtures would throw up surprises.
Sevilla leading Valencia, not that it matters much at this point. Atletico face Sociedad later tonight.

Athletico won again. 4 points clear of barca and 5 clear of Real who have a game in hand.
If Athletico win their remaining 2 fixtures they win the league. I hope they do it, and we see a change from the usual La Liga champions. Plus I still like Suarez so would be nice to see him win another La Liga after Barca ditched him.

I donāt like any of them but for a change it would be better for Ath Madrid to win, love to see Sevilla finish higher than 4th and demote one of the other two into 3/4
I hope Atletico picks a nice manager after Simone leaves. Feel so dirty supporting such a wanker of a team.
I donāt mind Simeone.
He has done one hell of a job there to be fair

I think Simone is judged leniently due to the fact that he took over when Atletico was really struggling. I like Simone (I like these thuggish midfielders who do their job no matter what 
) and I think he did a commendable job in stabilizing Atletico.
But if you consider the length of his tenure and the money he has spent, they have actually stagnated over last few seasons.
I never really thought about it, so I went over to Transfermarkt and I was surprised to learn that his net spend actually isnāt that big, about 150 million euros in total since he joined the club. I have a soft spot for those bastards, I guess itās āanyone except Real Madrid and Barcelonaā. I really hope they win the title.

Itās same for me as well. I never support the big clubs in any leagues. I used to support Valencia earlier.
Itās not the net spent but the signings, specially the big ones that raises red-flags:
Felix 127m
Lemar 72m
Costa 60m
Vitolo 36m
In fact, you will not find many inspiring signings.
Iām kind of surprised he hasnāt moved on, especially when Ath Madrid were in the final of the CL. Irony is they felt like they had peaked and yet here we are.
I think he is a class manager.
Any manger who can win the league with real and Barca in is doing a good job.
Done well in Europe too

Granada vs. Real tonight. Please, please, please; let someone other than Barcelona or Real win the league.
I think itās pretty much the Madrid teams now
A Madrid - Osasuna (H), Valladolid (A)
R Madrid - Bilbao (A), Villarreal (H)
Barca has Vigo and Eibar and Sevilla play Villarreal and Alaves.

Iām surprised that no bigger news outlets seem to be picking up on the rumours of Zidaneās impending departure from Real Madrid. The rumours have it that heās already decided to leave them, with Raul being the primary candidate to replace him.
Zidane has a year left.
Raul!!! Seem to me knowing about club is his overwhelming trait.

Absolute belter of a game between Atletico and Osasuna, I turned it on literally a few seconds before Osasuna had scored. Atletico are all but done and they start attacking and score two beautiful goals, the second one by Suarez. I really hope they can hang onto this.

If AtlƩtico beat Real Valladolid on the final day they will be crowned champions.
If Atleti draw and Real Madrid beat Villarreal, Zidaneās side will finish first on head-to-head
