Makes sense for all involved.
You seem to be emotionally invested on that one.
The fact is that Atletico have a good team, they are competitive and they can win, it's that simple.
What's a LFC-Barca Suarez style deal ?
Coutinho isn't good enough for Barcelona.

Good friends with Neymar/Suarez. Anything to send RAWK into meltdown I approve.
I assume "give us another year and you can leave with our blessing", similar to Ronaldo in 08.
Renew contract but agree that he's able to leave for said team when they come knocking again next summer, probably for an improved fee because he just signed a new, long-term contract.
Basically a gentlemen's agreement which says "I'll stay for one more year".
I'm or convinced we should give him any assurances we will sign him in another year. Football moves quickly. If say, Dembele, at 21 with even more experience is an option next year, or even Mbappé (who knows), Antoine may be less attractive. Neymar may be finally ready to move on. Personally, I'm not convinced he's THAT special a player that we have to commit too this far ahead.
The thing is it really makes no difference if you announce a signing on May 31st or June 12th does it? There is no trophy for being early. Now if you start talking about signing players after you have started training or the season has started, okay you can have some complaint.
This really happens every year. A few players get signed before we sign one and people freak out. For the most part we get our business down in a timely fashion, but sometimes some transfers take longer. It is the odd summer when all our business is done late. Historically we have signed players early, in the middle of the window and late in the window, heck even a few times we signed players in January more for with the following season in mind. Pretty much the same as every other club in the world if you look over their history.
At this point there is no reason to get over worried about what business is done or still needs to be done. Give it some time and see what happens.
Oh and City have signed 2 players, "bought all these players" might be an over reaction. We will have at least one signing this week, possibly 3 in total by the end of the week.
It's just some Madrid fan? At least that's what I get from his profile
I'm not interested in Griezmann for a higher fee. He's missed his chance to move imo. His numbers this season weren't even that great tbh. I still wanted us to sign him but would be happy enough to move on to other targets now frankly.
It won't be an assurance. It'll be an option or agreement.
Clichy linked to Fenerbahçe.
What if he doesn't perform to the same level?
What if someone steps up in our squad? Or a different target that could suit us better is up for grabs?
I'm not convinced about going in for him after a year.
We should re-evaluate our needs in the next Summer.
Think it's something to do with crying at the training ground because they won't let you leave, not sure.
If things change, we can have a change of heart, just like Griezmann did. We aren't exactly committed to buying him and I'm sure we will have all options open. Personally, I'd love him at the club but now he's not coming I reckon we should and would build the team without him in mind.
Boom.
We'll still need him.
Surely that kills that off.
If they don't let him go, he gets to bite somebody's ear off.
The plan: Griezmann for one more year on increased salary, release clause stays the same, and he'll leave next year
Because?
Reading down Ogden's twitter, he also wrote this

Joe Hart. Oh dear. Both FKs go in in middle of the goal. This could be the end of him with England.
I'm not sure you can trust someone who genuinely believes those shots were middle of the goal fare!
