Mihai Stoica (60 years old), the president of the Board of Directors from FCSBreacted after the victory obtained in the Romanian Cuptraveling with Gloria Bistritascore 3-1. MM praised the performance of the young player Andrei Dăncuș (16 years old), integral player in this match. In addition, the official stated that he was happy that the financier Gigi Becali (67 years old) considered that he had to look to other championships for transfers.
Mihai Stoica also testified that he was cursed at the official stand by two people throughout the match in Bistrita.
Mihai Stoica, delighted with Andrei Dăncuș's performance: “There were some problems, but those with experience were bigger”
“A hard-fought victory, we had 2-0 and 2-1 was a short time. I don't think there was ever a question of the winner, even if we didn't play a special match. It was an extraordinary atmosphere and I'm glad that after so many years Bistrita saw an intense match, on a good pitch, with an unexpectedly good night.
Let's see what's up with Miculescu, I hope it's not something serious, but he ended up in the hospital.
I don't really think the refereeing had any role, even if there were errors. These are Cup matches, anything can happen. I saw U Cluj earlier, they played on a pitch that doesn't compare to the grass here and won with a lot of luck against Metalul Buzău.
The cliché used to be the competition of surprises. A rather complicated period awaits us, trips, training camps. Sometimes it's not extraordinary to be a footballer, it's extraordinary to be a good footballer and get results.
That's the problem, we were sitting very well, we were covered in all positions. It's just that as long as you have five centre-backs and at some point you're missing four…
Mihai Popescu was a starter in the national team, he will probably not play again this season. Dawa was playing for the national team of Cameroon and I think he has not played for eight months. Chiricheș has problems.
Carvajal played central defender at Real Madrid, why couldn't Crețu play here?! Risto is in trouble. If anyone thinks there was a mistake in the training process, they need to look at each individual injury.
It's a tough year, but it's not lost, the regular season isn't half over yet. We are 3 points away from the play-offs, absolutely anything can happen there.
Dăncuş is 16 years old and played casually. At the end there were some problems, but those with experience were bigger. Dăncuș, easy-easy, let's follow an algorithm, is still not ready to play 90 minutes in the seniors.
We still have players, but fewer and fewer. Whenever I have the opportunity, I will remind that the U21 rule is against the Romanian teams, which go to European competitions and do not use any. They are forced to play with weaker formations than the ones they want to make, that is not normal“, declared Mihai Stoica, at Prima Sport 1.
Mihai Stoica: “It was important that Gigi thought we had to expand the search”
MM Stoica also spoke about the transfers FCSB wants to make during the winter mercato period.
“We will not make many transfers in the winter. I think 3 would be enough. We are also limited, you are not allowed to have more than 25 players, there are very few clubs that have 4 players trained at the academy.
We are searching, Portugal is not the only market we are studying. It was very important that Gigi considered that we should expand our search a little, because in Romania, for any player who stands out, the amounts that are requested are in the domain of the fantastic. We are talking about millions.
Ok, Bîrligea national player, he deserves it, but there are players you want to buy and you hear for a million. Samuel Telles and Lameira did not play at a high level in Portugal and they came here and are playing well.
We are not talking about Cisotti, who is a counterexample. You have to be a climber and you can't do that, from League 3 in four years to score a goal and beat PAOK in the European spring match”.
Mihai Stoica: “There were two people who cursed us non-stop in the official stand”
Also, the FCSB official revealed that he was the target of insults from two people in Bistrita, at the official stand.
“I confess that I have been to a lot of stadiums and endured a lot of swearing. I used to answer, now I don't answer.
There were two people who cursed us non-stop in the official stand. I will document myself and come back with details. Besides, exceptional conditions in Bistrita, exceptional hotel, there are even League 1 conditions here”.
