Simeone: “Football players with a great predisposition to effort have a place in my team”

MADRID, 22 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) –

The coach of Atlético de Madrid, Diego Pablo Simeone, said this Friday that footballers “who have a great predisposition to effort have a place” in his teams, praising the role of Roro Riquelme and Samuel Lino, and asked his players to face all the season “with the same responsibility”, because “each game has its importance”.

“Since the season begins you have the same responsibility, each game has its importance, tomorrow's game has it too. We will face a team that played a very good game in Granada, very solid, very strong, with a lot of speed up front, with experienced people within the team, with a coach who knows the League and Atlético,” said Simeone in the preview of the postponed duel against Sevilla.

The Metropolitan hosts this Saturday (16.15) the match between the red and whites and Seville, which truly “occupies” the Argentine coach. “We have to first resolve the game ahead of us to think about other things and we can't get out of that situation, try to play a good game,” he added about the team's current situation, after drawing (3-3) against Getafe at home, breaking the winning streak (20) at home.

Simeone analyzed the role of Riquelme and Lino in his squad, two players who usually occupy the left lane, but “who can do it together.” “The characteristics of each one are different, Roro is more powerful, Lino is more associative, but they have in common that they have a great predisposition to effort and when a footballer has it, they take place in my teams,” praised the coach.

Finally, he also highlighted the role of Rodrigo de Paul, “a very important player” in his squad, after the footballer confessed that he feels “more important with Argentina than at Atlético”, in statements on Movistar.

“All the growth that he proposes and can develop within the team will surely be very good, personally for him, for his growth as a footballer, and to generate greater strengths within the team,” Simeone commented.
