AS: Barrios, Baena and Almada return from injury to test Simeone s formation

On October 17, "AS" reported that the "threesome" Barrios, Baena and Almada that Atletico Madrid coach Simeone has been thinking about will finally be able to play together for the first time.

Due to constant injuries, this midfield combination with high hopes has only been on the court for a total of 23 minutes so far this season. But these short 23 minutes were enough to show their potential: in the game against Espanyol, the three teamed up to orchestrate an exquisite cooperation, and Alvarez almost expanded the score.

Previously, Barrios was in poor form at the beginning of the season due to an injury in the preseason. Then Baena was sidelined for more than a month due to injury and appendicitis surgery, and then Almada was injured again in the national team.

Now, with Almada and Baena both returning from injury and regaining their form in recent friendly matches and national team matches, Simeone can finally take all three midfielders into consideration in the game against Osasuna.

The article even proposed the idea of ​​a more anticipated "ABBA" combination (Alvarez, Barrios, Baena and Almada). However, with the rise of players such as Nico Gonzalez and the presence of Griezmann, the competition in the midfield and frontcourt has become unprecedentedly fierce. How to deploy and combine these talented players will be the next challenge Simeone faces.
