“Many wonder why he is not Russian…”

In Hagi's team there are certain players who have not gathered many minutes in the last period or some who have not had the best performances. MM gave the example of Moruțan, Matei Ilie, Eissat, Florinel Coman or Drăgușin. He perfectly agrees with Hagi's choices, considering that it is an opportune moment to see how they present themselves.

Mihai Stoica: “There are players who can still help him, and he knows their potential”

“Strictly about Moruțan, I think he needs his profile. There are a few players, people say about Matei Ilie that he hasn't even played as a starter, about Eissat. But the football that Gică Hagi has always seen is with two central defenders who open up the side.

And he always liked left-footed stoppers, and Ilie and Eissat are left-handed. Many wonder why he is not Russian. I think some players are still in tryouts, in quotes, it makes sense for that to happen.

It's one thing to see Coubiș or David Matei from the stands, it's another to see how they interpret an exercise with tactical content. Huja is still left-footed, maybe Ilie is better in terms of construction. Are you surprised that it's Moruțan? Well, Coman didn't play for the club team.

Drăgusin did not play. There are players who can still help him, and he knows their potential. Gică never saw Moruțan at a training session”, said Mihai Stoica, on the “Fotbal Show” show, from Prima Sport.
