Heitinga: I've had some bad luck

Table of Contents
Atlético Madrid defender John Heitinga defended himself from criticism he has received throughout this season, ensuring that he has had a bit of bad luck.

The 25-year-old Dutchman joined Atlético from Ajax for 10 million euros last summer after seven seasons in Amsterdam.

His debut season has not been particularly successful, though, with the Dutchman receiving plenty of criticism for his performances at the back.

"I understand the criticism - I am a professional," Heitinga told the club's official website.

"I began well this season but then I injured my knee and it was hard.

"People have criticised me because I have given away three penalties, that is what has been written.

"I am a hard worker though and I have to continue to focus on playing."
