The absence of Robin Le Normand has left a significant mark on Atlético de Madrid, a team that under the command of Diego Pablo Simeone misses him the most. The Spanish international central defender's absence has considerably impacted the team's defensive performance, as the numbers clearly show. Since Le Normand's injury sidelined him, the colchonero squad has conceded more goals and witnessed a decline in their ability to keep a clean sheet, raising uncertainty in "Cholo" Simeone's strategy.

With Le Normand on the field, Atlético de Madrid showcased a solid defense, conceding only four goals in eight matches and keeping a clean sheet in five of them. However, after his injury, the scenario has drastically changed: in three games without the defender, the team has conceded six goals and hasn't achieved any victories.

Robin Le Normand, the player Simeone misses the most

The last time Atleti secured three points was during their visit to Celta de Vigo, where Le Normand played a crucial role. But since then, the colchoneros suffered a painful defeat against Benfica in the Champions League (0-4) and drew two consecutive LaLiga matches against Real Madrid at home and Real Sociedad away, where Cholo's approach became 100% defensive after taking an early lead in the first minute due to the team's lack of response without the ball.

Currently, Atlético sits in the third position in LaLiga with 17 points in nine games, but is already seven points behind the leader, FC Barcelona. The lack of defensive stability since Le Normand's absence is evident, and Simeone must swiftly find solutions if he wants his team to return to winning ways and maintain their aspirations at the top of the table. The Argentine misses the Spanish international, and it shows in the team's overall performance.
