MADRID (Reuters) - Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone has backed forward Joao Felix to show his best form this season after an up and down debut campaign in the Spanish capital.

Felix, who signed for a club-record fee of about 120 million euros from Benfica last year, was impressive in Atleti's 6-1 home demolition of Granada in their Liga opener.

"Last pre-season he showed the same desire and happiness in his game as he's showing right now," Simeone told a news conference ahead of Saturday's visit of Villarreal. The Argentine coach refused to be drawn on Spain manager Luis Enrique's decision not to select any of his players for international duty, and also played down the likelihood of new signing Luis Suarez being paired up front with Diego Costa.

"Luis joined only recently and we can't wait to see what he brings us. We'll follow the path I've discussed with those players individually."
