Simeone: "They are always entertaining games with Villarreal"

MADRID, 20 Ago. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The coach of Atlético de Madrid, Diego Pablo Simeone, valued the good moment of Joao Félix and Álvaro Morata, hoping that it will continue to be this Sunday against Villarreal, a demanding rival that usually brings "difficult and entertaining games".

"Villarreal have started strong, they have played many friendlies because they play the Conference League. They have already played 10 games and have won 8 and drawn 2. I really like Emery's proposal as a coach, the quality of players that Villarreal has. Always It was a very difficult game, entertaining games", said the Argentine coach at a press conference.

The 'Cholo' was asked about the good pre-season moment and was also shown in Morata and Félix's league debut against Getafe. "We are starting the League. They are in a good moment, they had a good preseason, they are very excited, they are both very mature. Let's hope that this continues tomorrow at 7:30 p.m.," he said.

The rojiblanco coach was also asked about Antoine Griezmann. "We talked about it after the game. I've talked a lot about him. He's a very complete player, he's a player who knows what we want. He has vision of the game, work. I hope he stays with us, everyone knows what I want and important that it is. That it continues with the line of the preseason and of Getafe", he said.

"Until the signings are finalized, the footballers are going to be restless. Everything that is thought is always very delicate and when it ends, another movie begins. They will have to make an enormous effort to play where they are. The best thing for the coaches is to start with the footballers who are going to start and that they know it. Waiting for the market to remain open, all this happens, "he concluded.
