Atletico coach Simeone points Lionel Messi out as Atletico's greatest danger


Although Atletico has not been at their best and manager Diego Simeone admits it, Simeone still reveals that he feels proud of himself and his team for making it this far in the Copa del Rey.

According to ESPNFC, Simeone has revealed that although he is joyful, there are still some things to worry about. One of them being the presence of Lionel Messi. Altogether he sounds optimistic probably because Barcelona have not been on their best form as well and core midfielders like Iniesta and Sergio Busquets are injured.

Hull City Manager chides Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen following Spurs' 2-1 win

Following Spurs' 2-1 win over Hull City, City manager Steve Bruce lashed out at Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen for exaggerating to get Hull City's Ramirez Gaston red-carded. Bruce castigated such act as unhealthy for the Premier League. The Uruguayan midfielder Ramirez got the red card for kicking at Belgian Jan Vertonghen. Bruce argued his man only showed "petulance" when he was provoked by Jan. And such behaviour could not be regarded as "violent". The City went down when Tottenham's Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen found the net in the game's second half. Speaking with his news conference, Bruce said, "Ramirez has shown petulance. Vertonghen has had a little go at him, and Ramirez has flicked out. The law says it is a violent conduct. For me, it is an act of petulance -- it is not violent conduct." Via espn
