The France international has been dismayed by his club's start to the season and aired his grievances, but he has now been defended by a teammate after a rebuke from another.
Koke has defended Antoine Griezmann over his teammate's public criticism of Atletico Madrid's poor start to the season.
Atletico – once again tipped to be the closest challenger to La Liga heavyweights Barcelona and Real Madrid – is already four points off the pace following draws against newly promoted duo Alaves and Leganes.
France forward Griezmann recently claimed that Diego Simeone's side will find itself in an improbable relegation battle if things do not improve, a statement that led teammate Saul to rebuke the 25-year-old.
