“NEVER while I'm here”

Mirel Rădoi started his speech talking about the match with Noah. He was pleased with the attitude in the second half and declared that the tie was fair.

Mirel Rădoi: “What we discussed at halftime worked”

“We are happy with this point. The first half belonged to them, in the second we tried to settle. What we discussed at half-time worked. I think it was not fair if we had won, even though we had chances at the end.

At the goal it was an aerial duel lost, a player who scored 9 headed goals out of the last 11. The execution was good, with the opponent behind it turned out like that, the cross not having power.

Whoever enters has to do their duty, we don't have a set first 11. Everyone has to fight for their position. Etim I think could have helped even more if he passed in certain phases, but in the end he is the scorer of the goal tonight. Romanchuk also had problems with his eyes and cheekbones,” Rădoi said on Prima Sport 1.

Mirel Rădoi: “Baiaram did not accept the decision not to be a holder, he slammed the door when he went out to inspect the lawn”

Then, Rădoi went into details about the conflict with Baiaram. The striker was a substitute on the scoresheet, but watched the match from the stands. He was excluded by Rădoi, after having a nervous breakdown on the pitch.

“If there was something that wasn't working with Baiaram, he didn't play at all. He didn't accept the decision not to start, he slammed the door when he went out for the turf inspection. If we put him on the road, he can get the red card, being nervous. In the last match we took him off after the 70th minute because he had cramps, if at this age you go out with cramps, what are we talking about? It is important that the players accept what the coaches decide, here I am not only referring to him.

It's about respect for colleagues, everyone else accepted my decisions. If he thinks he has to be the rightful owner while I'm here, he's wrong,” Rădoi said.

I cannot go and explain to Baiaram. He must respect the coach's decisions. Things are simple. I informed the team, he had the reaction, then I told him that he will not be part of the team. I informed the team, he had the reaction and I told him that he cannot be in the team tonight.

It depends on him what will happen from now on. He is an important player, but there is no player who has a guaranteed starting place. Let him understand that the debut at the national team must be a stepping stone, not something after which no one can get along with him.
