Mihai Stoica (60 years old), the official of the FCSBoffered final thoughts before the game with Dinamo Zagrebin stage 7 of the main Europa League group. He was surprised by the banner he found in the Croatian stadium. He claims it's the biggest he's ever seen.
It is about “Bad Blue Boys“, a huge banner on Dinamo Zagreb's lawn. Around 11,000 people will attend tonight's game.

Bad Blue Boys is Dinamo Zagreb's gallery. It is one of the most famous and oldest supporter groups in Eastern Europe. It appeared in 1986 and the name comes from the American movie “Bad Boys” and the blue color of the club. “Blue” sends direct to Dinamo Zagreb.
“The biggest banner I've ever seen. I've never seen anything like it. The architecture of the stadium also helps, but it's clearly the biggest.
Quiet I think it will be. There are somewhere around 10,000-12,000 fans. Maybe the temperatures drive away the Croats too, not only the Romanians. It's complicated to come and sit still for two hours, no matter how exciting the game is. I hope it turns out well for us.
I think we are fine. I think Ciprian Marica said that we are a team with contradictory, inconstant developments, and it is true what he says. He thought that after the unsuccessful match in Mioveni, a good evolution would follow. Chances are very high. I hope so too.
There is no bad news today. Last night there was news about Tănase. It's not serious. It's just a contract, maybe. No sense in this cold to take any chances. It's nothing serious. That's what he felt at the last training session at home. He did an MRI and there was no problem.
I hope that Dawa will be at the level he was at Mioveni, even if the match will be completely different. I think we're lining up the best lineup we can line up right now. We treat it with utmost seriousness.
There are very high chances that, in the event of a positive result, we will play with a big stake with Fenerbahce. And then you gain confidence, as I gained confidence after turning the game against Feyenoord and beating Rapid. Maybe that will happen now. We have a great need in domestic competition.
Graovac is a right defender, he must also have minutes. Deserve. He played well while he was used in the first part of the season. Crețu and Pantea have a match, perhaps, on Sunday. Who knows? Whenever he played right back, he did it very well”, said Mihai Stoica, on the “Footbal Show” show, from Prima Sport, 30 minutes before Dinamo Zagreb – FCSB.
