Simeone chose not to fuel the debate over his son's regular presence in the side, giving short shrift to questions about online criticism. The Argentine manager insisted that performances on the pitch should be the only metric by which any player is judged. Brushing aside external scrutiny ahead of Sunday's clash in San Sebastian, he said: "I have nothing to say. Giuliano's actions and work speak for themselves."
