Razvan Lucescu spoke about the title battle that “flares up” after PAOK’s wide victory over Panathinaikos and made it clear that his team are not favourites.
In detail, what he said at the press conference after Panathinaikos-PAOK:
“We are a team that changed more than half of the roster. Players came with prospects, but they were not part of teams that were fighting for titles. It took time to find chemistry. We go game by game. Nothing changes for us. I say again that this year’s work will appear next season».
For the teams that are favorites for the championship: “Favorites for the title are the teams that are above us in the standings. With a new stadium, with the system helping them in any way».
About how important the victory was for PAOK: “In Greece the coach is judged by the last result. Either you will be the best coach in the world, or the most stupid person. This is how football is in Greece. I don’t want to compare any previous results with today’s. This game has its own history, last week was another match. Panathinaikos is a well-organized team, but we had an excellent competitive image and confidence».
For the team of his first term with this year’s: “The team from 2017 to 2019 was fantastic, winning two championships and two cups. One was stolen from us. I don’t know if it is correct to make comparisons between the then team and the current one».
