Mikel Arteta instructs his team to play aggressively from the off and that is seen by 11 of their 14 first-half goals away from home coming before the 30th minute.
Atletico also lost their heart and soul with Diego Godin and Gabi’s departures, as the veterans were a key part of the bite that Simeone’s side no longer possess to any meaningful extent. It occasionally flashes up, like in their thrilling 3-1 win at Porto to reach the Champions League last 16, but it is no longer the norm.
I told them we've got to play on that mentality - we do it by playing forward with better quality and being more aggressive in our play.
Yes, your scores might suffer this week compared with those of managers in your mini-leagues who decide to use it, but you can always make up that ground later in the season. Equally, if the postponements continue, you might get to a gameweek when you have only four players available to you and the Free Hit would be far more valuable at that point.
So for us to get toe-to-toe with them just shows the great place we're in because we don't sit back, we show respect but no fear and that's what I'm proud of today.

We were really effective, a real threat and in the first half we were really good. Let's see. I've tried to be as clear as possible.
Beckham’s corner skimmed off the head of Linke, who was under pressure from Schmeichel, and reached Yorke beyond the far post. He headed it back towards the centre, where the substitute Fink sliced what should have been a routine volleyed clearance straight to Giggs on the edge of the area. Giggs may have been comfortable playing on the right wing, but he was less comfortable on his right foot. He mis-hit a shot to such an extent that it span like a leg-break past Linke and straight to Sheringham. He swivelled to drag the ball into the net from six yards, becoming the first person to score a goal in the European Cup final with his tibialis posterior muscle. Or, as he put it more evocatively in the Times last month, “it was a scruffy scuff off my sock”.
