Atletico Madrid’s poor form is not down to nerves at all, Diego Simeone has said. He recently revealed that his boys just have to up the intensity to finish the season the way everyone wants.
According to him, he is not scared amid the dropped points, and he expects his players to be stronger as a unit in future games.
He added that the players must keep working to end the race they started the right way.
His words, “I’m sure I know the way and I’m not afraid of anything,”
“This isn’t happening because of nerves. Being able to play better, being a strong unit, I don’t think it’s down to nerves.”
“We have to keep working and up the intensity, that’s what gave us more of a chance [in the first place] aside from talent. I’m not budging on anything, but we have to accept we’re in bad form. The Spanish league is tough until the end in every title race.”
“There are usually only two teams [competing], as well as us in 2014 or 2017, but it was always a two-horse race. Now we’re competing, more for bad than for good in recent times.”
“We have to find a way for the boys to be as good as they were in the first half of the season.”
