“No Racovițan! He comes to the national team and performs”

The official of the Romanian champion had a harsh speech to the defender of Rayo Vallecano, as happened in the previous actions of the national team.

MM Stoica claims that Ratiu he has totally different developments when he comes to the national team and is not as serious as he is in the club team in La Liga.

Mihai Stoica's speech, the day after Bosnia – Romania 3-1: “Rațiu comes to the national team and makes an appearance”

Stoica compared Ratiu with Bîrligea. He believes that the red-blue striker comes and gives everything under the “tricolor”, while the defender completely changes his attitude the moment he is summoned and does not concentrate as much as he should.

“I expected much more from some important players. Many people blame Racovițan for the goal scored by Dzeko, I say that it was Rațiu's fault.

There are two opposing players in the national team, Rațiu and Bîrligea. He (no – Bîrligea) he comes to the national team and plays, he does everything to perfection.

I mean primarily as an attitude, which he has not been doing in the club team lately and he will be in trouble if he continues like this. That's right, he does everything perfectly in La Liga, and here he comes and makes an appearance.

For me, Rațiu, he is not in the first match… People put me against the wall when I talked about him, but he must understand that he should present himself to the national team with the dedication with which he presents himself to the club team when he plays with the big ones.

He comes, no offensive contribution, and defensively, in the phase of Dzeko's goal, he had to collect and that's it. He made mistakes in many phases where we conceded a goal. He was bailed by the selectors but understood none of it.

He scolded Man instead of coming back in a situation where we could have scored. You are not allowed to do such a thing, especially since you also had the armband. At the moment Rațiu presents himself like this, what claims can you have from debutants or players who are not in their position or players who have problems in club teams.

Rațiu, when he appeared in the national team, he was a player who seemed very modest, who gave everything, who had an exemplary attitude, and now I see him as a player just wearing the number 2 shirt. You can see something else, and we put the others against the wall!” said MM Stoica, for fanatik.ro.

• Andrei Rațiu has 35 selections for the national team, during which he scored a goal.

• Den Haag, Villarreal, Huesca and Vallecano are the clubs he played for throughout his career.

• He is quoted by the specialized website Transfermarkt at 12 million euros.
