“I didn't make random results”

The Italian technician who also visited Rapid had only words of praise for his students and is optimistic that in the future they can do beautiful things together. He considers that this result is not a revenge against Giulești and announced that he does not intend to take another player until the end of the mercato period.

Cristiano Bergodi's reaction, after the match won with Rapid

“We don't work on fixed phases like other teams, but the players are receptive. We work fixed phases, it's normal, like any team. We don't have a big team, but it's one that fights.

We have players in the box, they were there, they rejected. It was a very, very good game and I'm happy for them. I'm glad the players came in and were decisive. I have a competitive squad, good players, a good team and I think we are on a very good path.

I am glad. We didn't make random results, we conceded few goals and that's very good. Mendy is a player we needed. When I came, I needed a wing, I play with a different system. I searched and got Mendy. He is fast, quick with the ball at his feet, he convinced us. He also scored a penalty, he is a very good player, you saw.

It's not a rematch. I am very happy, I have a nice memory from Rapid. I wouldn't be a hypocrite to say… then I was in 2nd place for a long time, won 4-0 with FCSB, then after four games they signed my sentence, but I can't say it was a revenge.

We are not taking any more players, we are staying with this lot. The last transfer from next week will also come in. We are competitive, I am happy with the game and no one is going to leave,” Bergodi said after the match, in a flash interview, after the match, on “Digi Sport Special”.
