What does Simeone currently do?
He was Atletico's man right from the start. He won the La Liga title for them as a player. (Image: imgur.com)

The club had to wait until he got back as a manager to taste success again. He has carved out a name for himself in their history. (Image: imgur.com)
Iconic Moments
All he has is his balls

We reckon that he watched scarface one too many times. He's been a habitual grabber of the family jewels. We get it. You want the world to know that you have a large bequest. (Image: imgur.com)
Whose is bigger?

It became a serious case of flaunting after his team beat Juve in a Champions League match. He wanted to rub it in the face of Cristiano Ronaldo. The man with a basketball for a pair. It didn't end well for El Cholo. He was left red faced after Cristiano scored a hat-trick to give his side the victory against Atletico. This was a crass celebration, a premature one too. It fully deserved the ending it got. (Image: imgur.com)
Anti Football Warriors

He's revered by the Atletico faithful, but the rest of the world is unanimous when it comes to watching his side. They're the worst kind of players that you could ever face on a pitch. He trained them to do one thing very well - Stop the opposition at all costs. It was and still is dirty to watch. (Image: imgur.com)
Thugs Of Madrid

He has won more games than he lost or even drawn as a coach for Atletico. All of the stats mean nothing. His play is not entertaining and is outright thuggery. We wished he taught his teams to play beautifully. But that's going to be just a dream. (Image: imgur.com)
Love Life - Single, Girlfriend or Wife?

The man looks in top shape. The kids are lucky their father is a multi-millionaire. How else are they going to be fed? (Image: imgur.com)
Diego Simeone Wife - Carla Pereyra

She looks anorexic. Could break like a piece of twig. And we thought Posh was a fitness fanatic. (Image: imgur.com)
Family - Get to know them
Simeone Father - Carlos

We bet his dad doesn't watch his games. He'd be bored to death of it. (Image: imgur.com)
Simeone Son - Gianluca

Gianluca plays a forward. We didn't see that coming. There are three generations in this picture. (Image: imgur.com)
Simeone Son - Giuliano

All of his boys are footballers. These two must be cringing at his shorts right now. What is that? (Image: imgur.com)
Simeone Car - What does he drive?
Range Rover Velar

We get that you like the car. Just get in it and drive. Just so you know, it isn't as good as the flagship RangeRover. (Image: imgur.com)
Range Rover Velar

No El Cholo. We don't want to start a fight. That comment was only about the car, and not about Atletico being the inferior team in Madrid. (Image: imgur.com)
House - Where does he live?
Location: Madrid, Spain

Not in the wildest of dreams did we imagine him to be a board game enthusiast. He's on vacation here, away from Madrid if we're right. He usually lives in the Spanish capital. (Image: imgur.com)
