Cerezo: I'm warning the keyboard warriors that nobody is doubting Simeone Atletico Madrid Club president backed Atletico boss

Atletico Madrid president Enrique Cerezo has insisted that Diego Simeone has the club's full backing.

There had been question marks over the Atletico boss after a tough few months, but his side have responded with impressive victories over Liverpool and Villarreal.

"I'm warning the keyboard warriors: no one is doubting Simeone," Cerezo told Radio MARCA.

"The whole club and all the fans are behind him, I'm sure that we're going to do great things this season."

Atletico will travel to Liverpool for the second leg of their Champions League Round of 16 tie in two weeks' time and Cerezo is looking forward to it.

"We're going to Anfield with lots of excitement and with a great result," he said.

Los Rojiblancos are still 12 points behind Barcelona at the top of LaLiga Santander but Cerezo isn't giving up just yet.

"I would like there to be a draw between Real Madrid and Barcelona because it in all of our interests," he said.
