A disappointing start to the season is taking its toll.
This summer, Atlético Madrid spent over €200 million on new players, but their start to the season has been underwhelming—only two points from three matches. Head coach Diego Simeone understands the seriousness of the situation.
Details: The Argentine coach highlighted that a win against Villarreal would have reduced the pressure on both the team and himself. He also noted the importance of consistent support from supporters.
Quote: “A win would have been a relief—that’s how I see it. It would have felt like a burden lifted, as the responsibility is heavy. We’ve built a strong legacy over the last 14 years, and we need to protect it. My position is under more scrutiny than ever, and I have to accept that.
The fans’ support will be crucial on Saturday. We need them to rally behind the team, and we must perform well. We have to ensure that people feel connected with the team,” said Simeone.
