3 days before FCSB – Dinamo, Gigi Becali (67 years old) ignited the derby, stating that at the moment only one player of Zeljko Kopic would have a place in his team.
FCSB – Dinamo (Saturday, 20:30) is the headliner of the 19th stage of the Superliga. The red-blues feel indebted after the failure in the round, 3-4, and started the war of declarations.
Gigi Becali, the leader of the champion, considers his players to be far above the opponents of the weekend. The landowner was challenged to an exercise of imagination: how many of Zeljko Kopic's players would take place in the first “11” at FCSB? Becali found only one, but also that one in the context of absences from the red-blue team.

“How to beat you o [astfel de] team?, that if you take it post by post, they are not better than us on any of them! None!
Cîrjan? No, no. It's true, he's a technical player, he passes. I like him as a footballer, but he is not on the scale that I want. He is small, he has no strength.
It is possible for the central defenders, let's say that Boateng, in the situation we are in now. A central defender can have a place with us. The rest has no one.
Gnahore? Yes, [e bun]but we have there. I don't put him in Šut's place. I could take it. Wasn't he free? I could have taken him”, said Becali to PrimaSport.
Gigi Becali compared his own players: “Between Bîrligea and Miculescu, I choose Miculescu!”
In the same intervention, Becali hinted that David Miculescu will be fit for the derbythen compared it with the Daniel Bîrligea peak:
“If I sit well and… As I see it… I don't know if I can, that one is more of an attacker, with experience as an attacker, but as a value I like David Miculescu more. As a footballer.
I mean a footballer who covers all phases, total football, he's strong, he wins duels. Okay, that one is a scorer, he has more sense of goal, but for me, if you give me a choice between Bîrligea and David Miculescu, I choose Miculescu.
He had matches when he was playing and matches when he wasn't playing, but now he's playing great match after match! That's why I have courage. I have Miculescu, Olaru came, I have Tănase, Șut also came. These are footballers. I don't put in Cisotti and that and that anymore”.
With a much lower team – in Becali's view -, Dinamo achieved considerably better results in this championship season, having 34 points after 18 stages. The titular champion has agonized only 24 so far.
