Luis Suarez is going to make Barcelona regret letting him go, and in his first start for Atletico Madrid on Sunday, he put on a show.

The 33-year-old tallied two goals and an assist in Atletico Madrid's 6-1 win over Granada. The club is now 1-0-0 on the season. Suarez's first goal came in the 85th minute to give Atletico a 5-0 lead. His second goal came in stoppage time to give the club a 6-1 lead.

Last month, Suarez said he was willing to take a bench role to stay with Barcelona but later was informed by the club that he was no longer part of their future plans.

It was announced Wednesday that Suarez had been transferred to Atletico Madrid, and Messi wished him good luck in an Instagram post while also slamming Barcelona for letting him go.

Messi's comments provide further evidence that his relationship with club president Josep Maria Bartomeu continues to deteriorate. The 33-year-old decided to remain with Barcelona, but only because he didn't want to take the club to court.
