Statistics reveal Simeone’s two most trusted players, the goalkeeper is never replaced!

At the end of the year there is room for accounts and statistics show that the two players with the most minutes this year are Oblak and Correa. The Slovenian goalkeeper has not lost a single minute of the 42 games played in 2021, becoming the most overloaded player in terms of minutes. Like Oblak, Correa is the player who has played in 42 matches, but with a reduced time.

The overload of the season brought for the Atletico Madrid team a very high number of matches, this conditioned by 2020 which started very late due to the pandemic.

Of course, a long season brings fluctuations in performance, but Oblak remains an undisputed starter and above all one of the best players in Simeona’s staff and not only. Slovenia has found peace only in the Cup matches, as in the championship and in the Champions League it is the first name in the formation of Madrid. Correa is a case similar to the goalkeeper.

The Argentine may be a starter or not, but he is always there to help the team and coach Simeone. The Argentine coach has always found the support of the striker, as he is one of the key players to maintain harmony regardless of the time he takes, or the fact that he plays or not from the first minute.

The case of the striker is different with Oblak, because the goalkeeper is never replaced and the Slovene closes this year 2021 with 3780 minutes played, while the striker with 2594. From the 42 games of Atletico Madrid the Argentine has come down to the field as a starter from the minutes of seen in 32 cases and in 27 games has been substituted, i.e. only 5 has been completed by the 90th minute.

In terms of other statistics, Oblak has conceded 42 goals this year, with an average of 1 goal conceded per game, while in 13 meetings he managed to keep the squad intact. In terms of Correa figures, the striker scored 12 goals this season adding to the fact that he donated 7 assists.
