Diego Simeone , coach of Atlético de Madrid , said Friday that "there is no need or nothing" in the squad for this season and considered that he has "good spare parts" in the front, which finally did not arrive Rodrigo Moreno , attacker of Valencia , and continues Ángel Correa.
" We are in consequence of what we have talked about three or four months ago . There is no need or nothing left," said the coach after training in Majadahonda on the configuration of his team for this course, with eight signings, eight starts and 21 cash .
Simeone "no" believes that he is missing forward. "We have good spare parts, especially with Correa, Morata and Costa, plus the possibility of Joao Félix, it generates a good situation" in that demarcation, according to the Argentine coach, who has Correa again, once his penalty of two duels and passed a viral process.
In the market throughout the summer, the Argentine finally remains in Atlético. "I have always seen him train in the best way, with the best predisposition and always prepared for what the team needs, whether in a band or a striker, and he has not changed," Simeone reviewed about his countryman, before his sixth year in the club. "He is an important player for us, who gives us a verticality and a change of pace on the speed that many of the players we have offensively do not have. Possibly this year we will use him more where he feels more comfortable, which is above" added the technician.
Atletico is already focused on the match against Real Sociedad at the Reale Arena. There defends the leadership and the full nine points in the first three days. "It is a team that plays well. We have already seen it in the first games. It has imbalancing players, especially from the middle of the field forward, with a very good individual technique and good reference strikers."
He did not reveal in the press conference his idea of the eleven for that meeting, although this Friday he insisted on the alignment he tried on Thursday in the afternoon session, with Jan Oblak in the goal; Kieran Trippier, José Giménez, Mario Hermoso and Renan Lodi in defense; Joao Félix, Koke Resurrección, Saúl Ñíguez and Thomas Lemar in the center of the field; Víctor Machín, 'Vitolo', either as a half point or as an end, and Diego Costa, in the lead.
That is the probable starting team for San Sebastián, where he has two casualties due to injury: Álvaro Morata and Thomas Partey . The first continues with his recovery from a sprained right knee; the second was exercised with the group this Friday, although he is not yet ready for some muscular discomfort and will not be in the call, as the technician advanced.
Simeone, at the same time, spoke of the 32nd anniversary of his debut in the Argentine First Division with Velez. "I debuted with 17 years. A beautiful stage of my life. I had great coaches that improved me, that made me a better person and marked me the way of what football is. Afterwards, the possibility of being a coach leads me to be immersed in my passion is football, "he reviewed.
