Diego Simeoncoach of Atletico Madridappeared in the media before the match against Girona at the Metropolitan.
Do you feel a strange atmosphere?
“No, I think Koke’s statements are in the sense of what Atlético de Madrid has always been, what we want to continue supporting, it goes hand in hand, with us from the field, generating enthusiasm and illusion , being close to all the people. , We have the opportunity to play against our people, we need it, it will be a difficult game like everything in the Spanish League”.
Koke said we need to let the people outside listen…
“We are in a club and a team with maximum demands and if it is maximum, it is not reaching anything, we have to win every day. I see that the team is growing, they played a good game in Seville, a good first half a day in what we want to do, I have a lot of confidence in my players and in the team, I see that it is growing and in finding what we want”.
Griezmann, agreement with Barça?
“I have always behaved in the way that I believed I had to and the facts refer me. From there, they know the importance that Griezmann has within our team and I hope he continues to develop and improve because he is on his way. “
Free way to align him?
“I always had the same situation and I behaved in relation to how I should have behaved.”
De Paul and his controversy
“Nothing to comment on, simply resolve the situations internally, as always. We have talked to Rodrigo, normally, he is our player, important to the team and we need him to be well”.
Strap by Llorente
“He does not have the characteristics of Marcos, because he occupies the field more far and wide, Ángel is more of a forward, we will see what we think is best for the game tomorrow and we will decide.”
Riquelme is also in Girona
“In the preseason we saw that he is fine. He is a boy with enthusiasm, hunger, desire to continue growing. We talked to him before the start, telling him the fact that the team has now, with there are many footballers in his position and that the growth he is experiencing, he will stop. We are getting everything right, he is playing, growing, with a good coach, playing the qualities that suit him, he is our player who is in the rivalry we are going to face tomorrow.”
Koke requested more presence from the quarry
“I didn’t understand it that way. That’s why each one interprets as they want. From the quarry we have Saúl, Koke… We are always seeing who can walk in the paths of Lucas, Rodrigo, Thomas, Koke. .. Hopefully in the next months or years we will have the quality and quantity of footballers we had four years ago. These are the moments, there are better years and others we have to wait”.
