A multimillion-dollar project for a historic drought

It seems impossible for Atletico not to have so much scoring ability since the season began for two reasons. The first: they have spent a lot and the second for what they showed during pre-season.

In addition, Morata, Vitolo, Correa, Diego Costa, Saponjic, Lemar, Joao Felix are all in good condition ... Players who cost the team a lot of money and who have proved capable of giving a lot to the team.

The multi-million dollar project that Atletico carried out last summer to restructure the team is not paying off because Simeone and the fans miss shouting for joy, miss goals that should be more.

The situation is alarming because Atletico have only scored seven goals in their first eight league games, something they haven't done since the start of 2000. In fact, it's the second worst record in history.

There is only the 1968/69 campaign, in which two goals were scored, while the best was the 2013/14 campaign, which finished with a happy ending. 

In any case, Atletico must improve - and quite a bit - in terms of goals after the stoppage because the derby, the Champions League and La Liga will come at a stroke.
