Asked about the game played by Daniel Paraschiv (26 years old), Angelescu explained that he has higher expectations from him. The striker on loan from Real Oviedo remained in debt from the moment Giulio registered him.
Last night he entered the field after the break in place of Elvir Koljic, but he had no offensive achievements.
In 15 matches he scored 2 goals and did not provide any decisive assist. Angelescu wants him to score 5 goals by the end of the season, taking into account the job description.
Victor Angelescu, the day after Craiova – Rapid 1-0: “It's clear that you can no longer claim the title”
It remains to be seen whether Rapid will activate the buyout clause. The people of Giulești paid 120,000 euros to borrow it and have to pay another 500,000 if they decide to buy it.
Beyond this aspect, Victor Angelescu explained that Rapid no longer has a chance for the title, taking into account the difference in points compared to Universitatea Craiova and U Cluj.
“It's clear that you can no longer claim the title, from my point of view. Mathematically, it's possible, we'll try to win all the matches, but you have to have a perfect run, 5 wins, and hope the others get messed up. We're focusing on the European cups.
You have nothing to complain about if you don't score, we can't say we played a good game. Unfortunately, it seems that we haven't found the peak, we are in debt this season. I don't know if Paraschiv will stay, we will draw conclusions at the end of the season. It's a big upset, there are 5 more matches, to score 5 goals, I don't know.
But not only him, Christensen should have too, maybe others too. Paraschiv also knows what he has to do, I know him, he's a serious boy, he's a striker, he has to score goals or assists. And I expect Petrila to score.
At Koljic we have the option to extend them. Craiova has always been the main favorite for the title. We deserve to have the world taken away from us, football is played on goals. It was important to get at least one point”, declared Victor Angelescu, on the “Fotbal Show” show, from Prima Sport.
