Andrea Mandorlini announced an emergency meeting after Petrolul – CFR Cluj: “Some players left their hearts at home”
“We played a game like I didn't expect, I'm telling you honestly. I don't know what it is. The involvement…I was surprised. It's been a while since we couldn't win, even if we work hard. We should try to press other keys from now on. I'm disappointed with how the team looked today.
It's a difficult time and I'm very upset. We can change all the coaches because the players are the same. I am the heart of this locker room. I am very upset because I have a lot of faith in this team.
I tried, I played with 3 defenders, I played with 4 defenders. We tried to do everything, but whoever came in gave little. I have to have a talk with the president, with the boss. We all need to have a discussion because it is important to change something.
I'm not thinking of leaving. I have confidence in our work. I was also a player, and when you are on the field you have to give your soul. Some players left their hearts at home. We have to find her and get her back to this locker room. You can change all the coaches, but if you don't have spirit you can't succeed. I know the CFR and it has a different spirit. I'm disappointed because I didn't expect this.”
Asked about the conflict with Neagoe at the end of the game, CFR's technician explained: “I was talking to Eugen Neagoe. I was nervous and this still happens in football. I wanted to dedicate the victory to Iuliu Mureșan and the boss. He has experience, he is a good president and I would have liked to dedicate a victory to him. It is a defeat”, Andrea Mandorlini reported to the flash interview from Digi Sport.
