Gigi Becali (67 years old), the boss of FCSB, announced that he will let the team's supporters decide the fate of Denis Alibec (34 years old), after the striker came into conflict with them following the defeat suffered in the last stage of the Superliga, 1-2 with the newly promoted Metaloglobus, after the title champion took the advantage in the booths.
At the end of the match, the supporters from Peluza Nord asked the players to account for the historic failure suffered, and among the most targeted footballers was Denis Alibec, who was introduced on the field in the 79th minute.
Alibec was caught arguing with the supporters, and Gigi Becali declared that the striker can be excluded from the team, if those from Peluza Nord will say that they were cursed by him.
Gigi Becali lets FCSB supporters decide Alibec's fate: “I can't please one man and ignore thousands of others”
“He was playing this game (no against Bologna). I did everything I wanted all the time. But in the situation we are in now… The fans supported the team, the way they did. It makes me respect them so much that I take into account even the little details.
I understood that he swore. I don't know what he did there. I cannot please one man and ignore thousands of supporters. That matters! After the whole situation… there are 25-30,000 supporters, I don't know how many come to the match.
They have a meeting, and I asked Mustața, through Meme, for them to decide whether Alibec plays or not. I never listen, but in this current situation, let them decide, because we are where we are. Let them decide whether they accept Alibec or not. They must determine.
They will have a meeting and everyone will say what they heard. He had to play. But only if he goes on the field and touches the ball and the whole stadium curses and boos him, that's not okay. If he cursed, I don't put him back!
We are talking about a particular situation, there is no point in extrapolating. We are talking about a situation that has never happened before: a player who cursed the fans. They will establish. They know. They will say if they heard any swearing.
We will also analyze, not only them. We will analyze if he swore. After playing the way we play, let's swear at the fans too? He will be video analyzed. He will also analyze the management, that it is a sanction, if he did this.
It's a moment when I take my hat off to the fans. No group of supporters supported the team in the situation in which it ended up. They supported the team because we have this European competition. I think so”, Gigi Becali declared on the show “Footbal Club”, from Digi Sport.
Gigi Becali announced who will play in the match against Bologna
“We will send the best team. Olaru plays, Cisotti plays, David Miculescu plays, Sut plays, Ngezana plays.
I don't know if Radunovic is playing. I think he will play. Ngezana with Lixandru in the center of defense, I think Lixandru is better than Baba, I don't know. Baba will play, he will play central midfielder now. You don't have another.
Lixandru will play, let's see him too. Slope to the right. Thiam or Bîrligea peak, I don't know, one of them. We see who we start with, one half, the other half. Or Alibec a half and Bîrligea a half.
The gallery must study well, as well as the management, whether or not he cursed Alibec. It is also about a penalty, i.e. a fine”, concluded the financier from FCSB.
