Atletico Madrid Criticism of striker's relegation remarks

Antoine Griezmann's comments about Atletico Madrid's prospects following their draw with Leganes have been condemned by team mate Saul Niguez.

The French striker claimed that the Rojiblancos faced a relegation battle in LaLiga this season if they continued their win-less start to the new campaign.

"Griezmann needs to think about what he says," Saul told Deportes Cuatro.

"You have to think about where you are and what team you represent.

"It is true that at the end of the match, tiredness, the heat, everything comes together but you cannot say that.

"We have values and we can not say that."
