According to The Marca newspaper, Atletico Madrid will face Osasuna at home this round. At the pre-match press conference, Atletico boss Simeone spoke about the current state of the team, as well as the situation of the two strikers in the squad, Suarez and Felix.
<b>- What is the current mental outlook of the team? </b>
We have remained on the road as we are. We're preparing for the game against Osasuna, trying to win this game, and that's the most important thing right now. I see the team is very enthusiastic and passionate right now.
<b>How does the coaching staff respond to the current situation? </b>
We will respond calmly, but we will also be cautious. We will stay on the set path and try to avoid derailment of the team in every game.
<b>Do you think the work atletico is currently doing is valuable? </b>
I generally don't comment on whether certain things are valuable or not. We will do ourselves and focus on Osasuna.
<b>How has the manager made his or her own impact in recent games? </b>
<b>Throughout the season, the team will go through some difficult times. The manager needs to find a solution so the team will improve. </b>Against Sevilla and Bilbao, we did well in the second half... In the last few games, we have also improved a lot.
<b>Is it difficult to forget what happened in other games yesterday? </b>
We will focus on what we can decide on our own. The ideal is to come game by game, which is something we've been doing all season.
<b>—Suarez and Felix</b>
<b>We hope that João (Felix) will be able to show us his strength and show us his importance when he comes out. </b>The team needs him to do that. As for Luis (Suarez), we are now in The Territory of Suarez. For a player<b>, he can solve all the situations we have and it's an ideal moment for him. He is very adapted to this style of play. </b>
<b>— The key to facing Osasuna</b>
They've changed a lot, <b>they now use a 4-3-3 formation as a starting point, but it's possible to change the formation in the game. </b>In a way, being able to do that makes them strong. Their manager has done a very good job and we want to take on this strong opponent.
