Simeone appeared before the media, telematically, this morning to review all the rojiblanca news, which goes through the closing of the market on Tuesday at 12:00, the arrival of Cunha and tomorrow's game (22:00) against Villarreal.
Cunha. “He came with some annoyances from the Games. He had just reached the end. Still has discomfort. He feels in good shape. Today he trained with the group. What role do I see? The player we went to look for as a result of the places on the field where we always need competition. Get to know European football. He has come with great enthusiasm, desire, he is seen with a lot of energy. We hope that he can show, above all, what he has shown in Brazil ”.
Do you close the template ?: “You know better than anyone that it is impossible to consider something in football as closed. On Tuesday at twelve we will be with our eyes wide open and that nothing happens that we do not have in our solutions and thoughts. The squad is very well compensated but from here to Tuesday something can always happen ”.
Villarreal: “It's a great team, always with very good footballers. Now he has a great coach who knows how to compete very well and who has passed it on to the team. The matches against Villarreal are always very close matches, any detail breaks it to one side or the other ”.
Cunha, will you allow me to be called up with Brazil?: “They will have to ask the leaders. I will take care of tomorrow's game, which is Villarreal ”.
Used to the market, nerves: “We are used to it, but at the same time all the coaches need confirmation of what the future is going to be, always better as soon as possible. In Spain it stretches much more and generates this situation of waiting until the end, to see what can happen. We are prepared for anything that may happen and hoping that nothing happens ”.
Trippier, Suárez, will they be against Villarreal?: “They are both working very well. They have both had a very good week. With Correa and Lodi they are the ones who have arrived later. The minutes are improving football. Tomorrow we will decide if we start with them or with Llorente in the lane and Carrasco and Saúl, as we have been doing ”.
