Liviu Ciobotariu, statements after Lighthouse – Oil 2-1: “I am not a follower to blame a player”
“We had possession, we created some situations to mark, Tolea's bar. The second half belonged to the Lighthouse, maybe we didn't deserve to lose this game. We made a good game, but it is not enough. There is this frustration, upset. The stages pass and we fail to accumulate points. We have to be strong, we are in a delicate, complicated situation.
Everyone has expectations on our part and we are unable to balance ourselves in terms of results, but also the less good moments from the games we have made. I looked good today, but it's not enough. I made two very big mistakes.
We will do the analysis, I will forget and see what we need to correct for the next match. We are wrong more often than opponents and it is not okay. A ball from the edge, from the center, could be stopped. The opponent was not allowed to take our player's face.
I am not a fan to blame a player. The first culprit for this match is me. I am the one who leads this team, I do the training, the first 11, the changes. Too many mistakes, and at each game we have a problem: medical, and a player goes to the lot. That is.
Ricardinho had a medical problem, I probably would have taken him for a break anyway. Likewise, an injury. Only this can happen to me. I was forced to make two changes due to injuries. I hope we go through this black pass, because it is a situation that presses us. Is delicate.
This is not the first time a thing happens to me. I have so much experience, almost 20 years as a coach. It is clear that I have to solve this situation. We have to prepare better, to do much more than we have done so far, “said Ciobotariu at the first sport.
What Ciobotariu says about the meeting with the supporters: “I spoke with the president”
“It is normal for the supporters to be upset and I understand this dissatisfaction. After 8 stages, you have only 6 points and yet the supporters come after you all the time … they are right.
I had a discussion with them and I gave them justice, because they want much more from us. They will result. Any team feeds on results. We explained to them that we must have patience until we enter the normal line we want, and the supporters.
I don't know anything (no – about a possible dismissal). You have to ask the management. The president and shareholders Demit, I did not talk to anyone about that, I was not announced. If this happens, we will discuss. No one announced me, I have now talked to the president. You never know, as a coach you can expect anything.
A resignation is not taken into account, it does not exist. I don't go hard. It would be a proof of seriousness to leave a team when the team is down. I will never do that. I am a fighter and I will fight until we have results. I do not know what will be next, I have no way of knowing, ”Ciobotariu concluded.
I have to congratulate the team Lighthouse for victory, but I think, in terms of game, the match was balanced. The lighthouse was not over us this evening. We could even snatch a 2-2 in extremis.
I do not blame the misfortune, but something inexplicable happens to us. I tell you with all sincerity: it was not a stage, from the beginning of the championship, in which we do not have a problem, either medical, or players who went to the lot.
