THE Red Star start with victory over the FMP during the Yannis Sfeiropoulos era and the Greek coach did not hide his satisfaction for the task he undertook, without… a trace of fear for the following derbies against Partisan for Euroleague (26/10) and Adriatic League (30/10).
“I am honored to be the coach of Red Star. This is a great club with a great history and I feel blessed. I thank the administration for the opportunity. Everything happened very quickly. I have a lot of respect for Dusko Ivanovic, who is an excellent coach and person. He left a team in a very good condition and I believe that together we will fight for success with the people by our side, in good times and bad“, he said.
About the two upcoming derbies he said:If I was scared I would stay home“, while adding that he knows well how to manage a team he takes over during the season. “It is difficult for players to get used to a new manager. This is the fourth time I’ve taken over an October or November team. The same had happened to Olympiakos, Maccabi and previously Panionios. I have the experience of such situations, but it is not easy to change your philosophy when you have games to win».
