“We'll see. I told Meme to tell him that he will also play in Zagreb. I want to see if I give him up. I want to see if I give it up for good or if I keep thinking about it.
(no – Zagreb will be the final test for Alibec) Yes. Either I remove him from the lot permanently, or I still rely on him. Politic will play a half in Zagreb. I still have patience with Politic because I still believe in him.
Politically he must be a footballer, he was too good to forget football. You have to talk to him, “Well, go, play for fun, have fun. Do what you want, nobody gets upset, don't have emotions». This is how you have to talk to him, he has emotions”, said Becali, for fanatik.ro.
