Petrakis on bwinSPORT FM 94.6: “The derby is very exciting”

by

An ambiguous derby, which will be decided in the details, awaits tonight at Olympiacos-Panathinaikos The Yannis Petrakisas reported to News Bulletin 247.

At the same time, he declared that he was happy for his collaboration with him Panetolico and yesterday’s victory over Volos stressing the need for his team to continue to improve.

In detail, Yannis Petrakis spoke to Sotiris Tabakos about:

– the agreement with Panaitolikos: “It is a pleasure and an honor for me. It has been a desire of years for me to work in this group. The conditions that Panaitolikos has for you to work are unique in Greek terms. All the conditions are there, so all it takes is work.”

-the mission he undertook in Panaitolikos: “We know the difficulty, but we should not complain about it. You should do everything you can with the data you find to be more useful. It would be unfair to talk about the previous coach. I try for the best with the guys in the team. Through everyday life and work we want to support what we believe. With humility and hard work we want to become better and better”.

-the philosophy he wants to pass on to the team: “The picture we had yesterday was good. What we wanted to pass as a mindset and game plan worked and we need to reinforce that. I’m pleased, because to learn something you don’t just have to say it, you have to repeat it every day. I feel happy that I have children who are good characters, interested in learning and want to be together. The children show that we are at a very good level, this is a good sign.”

– the roster of Panaitolikos: “We have guys who can do really great things. We needed yesterday’s win, there was a lot of pressure. But we have to forget that quickly, because we have many games ahead of us and we want to get better and better. Managing emotions is very important whether you win or lose. We should have a stability in it.”

-the Olympiacos-Panathinaikos derby: “They are two very good teams. Olympiacos wanted his time to find the style of play that suits him and made very quality transfers. He has a lot of talent, especially in attack and it is no coincidence that he is first. Panathinaikos has been a good team for a long time, they are in good shape and we will see a matchless game. We’re going into a derby where we can’t name favourites. A moment can decide the game. It’s a matter of concentration, discipline in what the coaches say, and such matches can also be judged by key players.”
