Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone has insisted that he accepts the criticism that has come his team's way in the opening weeks of the new La Liga season.
Atletico have drawn both of their league games at the start of the 2016-17 campaign, which has already left them four points behind Barcelona and Real Madrid in the La Liga table.
The capital outfit will travel to another winless team in Celta Vigo this weekend, and Simeone is 'hopeful' that his side will return to Madrid with all three points.
"It is right that we criticise when you do not achieve the results. We need to improve and seek alternatives to start winning again. We have a difficult game against a tough rival, but with intense gameplay and good offensive alternatives," Simeone told reporters.
"We will have to work hard to feel comfortable. The pressure is real for both teams. None have achieved victory. Hopefully we can bring the win back to our place."
Atletico will welcome Sporting Gijon to the Vicente Calderon next weekend before travelling to Barcelona on September 21.
