Barcelona's Sergio Busquets says that Atletico Madrid are the "complete team" under Diego Simeone.

Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets believes that Atletico Madrid have become the "complete team" under Diego Simeone.

La Liga leaders Barca host second-placed Atleti on Sunday and the Spain international feels that the Madrid outfit are now a major force under their Argentine coach.

"With Simeone in charge, they have become a complete team that makes you work hard for a win," said Busquets.

"Atletico finished very well last season and have continued that form this term. They have become a rival this season because with nearly half the season gone, they are near the top of the table."

Simeone took over at Vicente Calderon in December 2011.
