La Dea wiped the Bianconeri aside to strengthen their Scudetto – challenging – to move six points for fourth place Juve while they are in third place.
Locatelli said afterwards: “It is difficult to talk after a game like this.
“I thought until the punishment that it was a good performance, but when it admitted the second directly after the restart, it hit the wind out of our sails. Not only we did not respond, we opened even worse and that made it easy for one side like Atalanta.
“It is clear that the fans have the right to go when they see such a game. I always tell the younger players and don't forget that we are a young team and this does not help us, but the atmosphere depends entirely on us and our performances.
“The fans follow us everywhere and they have the right to jeer. We have to turn the situation around, it all depends on us and our attitude. “
He added: “I think we should also give Atalanta credit because they were so strong today and won every duel. We tried this in training, but they were just so good at the counterattack and got the most out of those situations.
“We have to give 100 percent and continue to work in training, this is the only way ahead.”
