Mihai Stoica launched a series of sharp replies to Nicolae Dică and Mihai Pintilii. The official of the red-blues clarified the tensions of the last period and revealed details about how the separation from the “second” of Elias Charalambous took place.
Pintils he did not escape the president's shot. MM cannot get over the way Pintilii chose to leave the technical staff, accusing him of not directly conveying his intention.
For his part, Pintilii was disturbed by the rumors launched by MM regarding a possible transfer of the coach to the U20 national team. The leader of FCSB had said that Pintilii would be in discussions to take over the team coached by Iencsi and take with him Alin Stoica, the “second” of the champion.
Behind the scenes of the separation FCSB – Pintilii: “I found out on TV that he left!”
“Pintilii was hurt that I said in the shows that there were rumors that he would be the Romanian U20 coach and would want Alin Stoica second (no – FCSB employee).
I just said they were rumours. If I spoiled any of their combinations, sorry, that's it! If you have to explain in front of Iencsi (no – current U20 coach) whether it's true or not… Rumors are rumours. In fact, Stoichiță would have wanted Alin Stoica, not him, maybe they also opposed it.
As people get hurt, they get over it, and I was also hurt when he said about Flavian Arămitu, when he didn't come to the program, when I had scheduled him with the doctor.
Since you are leaving and we learn from Radu Naum that he is receiving a live message that you have left?! How to find out some things from Radu Naum?
That's how I found out that Pintilii left FCSB, he sent a message to Radu Naum! Of course I was hurt, if we still talked and we like to use that term. But whenever we talk, we work things out and we're still in a very good relationship,” said MM Stoica on the “Footbal Show” show on Prima Sport.
“I mean, don't feel hurt anymore, he owes me a lot! It's easier with the injuries, because you're not hurting anyone”
There is also a smoldering conflict between MM and Dica. After the red-blue official had declared that there was no Romanian coach free of contract that he could trust, “Nick” was irritated.
MM's reply was not long in coming, he reminded the former striker that his professional path was closely linked to the decisions of his management.
“I mean, he shouldn't feel hurt anymore, he shouldn't feel hurt towards me! I kind of influenced his career as a player and coach, I shouldn't, he owes me a lot to be hurt by my statements, it wasn't anything against him.
I mean he said very clearly that there is no longer any problem with us, if we contact him, he should come back, didn't he say that very clearly? It's easier with injuries, because you don't injure anyone”, concluded MM.
