Alexandru Pașcanu, after Rapid – Craiova: “We are waiting for Daniel Pancu”
“It was a season with everything, but we didn't finish it the way we wanted, unfortunately. There were the play-off games, which weren't the way we wanted. The season is over and we have to learn from the mistakes. Maybe it was the fatigue today, I don't know why it played like that.
Mental and physical fatigue, we all need a vacation, to completely disconnect from football and recharge our batteries for the next season.
We need to have more wins and complete the good run we had in March and in the play-offs. We also need to know how to react to defeat as well. Mister (nr. Costel Gâlcă) said goodbye to us, and we wished him well. And he wished us the same. It was a season of everything, but that's life.
Qwe are waiting for Daniel Pancu. I don't know him personally, so I can't give my opinion“, said Pașcanu, at Prima Sport.
I work every day. I'm glad the summons came because I really want it. I know I wasn't what I wanted. Next season I will be better and I will look different. I've explained my problems in the past, but you'll see next season when I play.
I have no emotions, I am proud to work with Mr. Hagi. I look forward to being there. It was painful that we couldn't please the fans this season.
