Florin Gardoș (37 years old), two-time champion with FCSB, believes that the team coached by Elias Charalambous (45 years old) is “the most unpredictable” and believes that CFR Cluj, who are below the title champion in the Superliga standings, have more chances to enter the play-offs.
FCSB is in 10th place in the Superliga, with 21 points, 5 behind the 6th place holder, Farul, with whom the match follows directly from Constanța. On the other hand, CFR Cluj is in 11th place, two points behind FCSB.
Florin Gardoș: “FCSB seems to me to be the most unpredictable team”
“FCSB seems to me to be the most unpredictable team at the moment. This match from Serbia is coming and you don't even know it… You would say by the form, by the discussions, by this madness with two defenders, one, these tactical changes of the coach…
“Primul 11” looks good. It's this madness with changes in tactics, players… It seems to me that it's very unpredictable. If I were to look at the standings now, CFR has two points less… I, from the outside, would give CFR more chances to catch the play-off than FCSB.
It seems to me that at CFR, with the change of coach, something is being seen. Even if it is a change of air, of spirit, not necessarily something tactical. And they have momentum”, said Florin Gardoș, according to fanatik.ro.
For FCSB, a difficult schedule follows in all competitions. After the trip from Serbia with Red Star Belgrade, which will be played on Thursday, from 22:00, Elias Charalambous' band will travel to Constanța in just 3 days, where they will play in the company of Farul.
Then there is another trip, with UTA Arad in the Romanian Cup, and on December 6, FCSB will host the derby with Dinamo at the National Arena, 5 days before Feyenoord comes to the country's biggest stadium, for the duel in stage 6 of the single group in the Europa League.
