FC Botosani – UTA Arad 2-1. Valeriu Iftime, the host's financier, entered directly, a few minutes after his team reached the first place. Botosani has 25 points and is on equal Rapid. Extremely happy, the owner of the Moldovans acknowledged that he would like to win the championship.
He claims that his team is not accidentally in the first position and acknowledged that the players and coaches have no first to occupy a place on the podium at the end of the season.
Questioned about the situation from FCSB, a club at 12 points in the back, Iftime took again by Elias Charalambous (45 years), the champion technician, because the owner Gigi Becali (67 years) intervenes and makes his team and changes.
Valeriu Iftime, statements after FC Botosani – UTA Arad 2-1: “I want the title!”
“It's our time. I am convinced that there are many places to see in Botosani, but I do not think they celebrate the locals. Tomorrow has the baptism Miron and they are having fun then.
Certainly Leo Grozavu wants with all our heart to reach above, to make an extraordinary surprise, I mean, of course. When you are on 1 with the best goal after 12 stages … We are a good team, we have extraordinary players, goalkeepers who have taken us in a few matches, that makes the team.
At this moment, no one can tell me that we are by chance here. I beat what it needed. You asked me if I want the title, yes! If we had a good land today, it was much better for us.
I give you my word of honor that I have never had hunger! I tell her for the first time, I have sold over time because the players wanted to leave. Dawa at FCSB, Edjoua as well. Moruțan left with clothes everything, now cries. It was essential for the team to have stability.
Let God stand in front and no one leaves! If Botosani has a good shape and stays in that area, with chances of being in the first 3, surely no player will leave. Until the summer no one leaves, I keep them. They have salaries, but they cannot make them higher.
When I was 14 and looking for FCSB you had the courage to leave, when it's FCSB on 14 and you on 1, you don't leave. It's not my job what FCSB does with Charalambous. It is the job of Romanian football to understand what football and employer means.
It's about this ambiguity, these who come from outside look at us like savages, when the owner makes the team. That's why I don't get it out, maybe another. I think Mr. Charalambous is in a total image pit, how does someone do his team, I don't understand how it stands?
He's a physical trainer, what's there? Portarii trainer? Let's be serious. It's the job of them. That's what I said, in football you have to have some people who know the job, the trainer with a license, training. A patron holds the atmosphere, “Iftime said at” Football Club “, from Digi Sport.
Let's tell you something. No one has any award in the contract for a ranking in the first 3. No one was so warrior to tell me this.
No one has a title premium, only one player has a cup premium. We also apply to the license for European Cups.
