THE Villerban snapped a 9-game losing streak in the EuroLeague with a 93-79 win over Zalgirishowever his position Gianmarco Poceco on the team’s bench remains precarious, as it is rumored that he is on the way out.
The Italian coach himself, however, stood after his team’s pink card in this rumor and declared unaffectedemphasizing that his future is in France uncertainbut he will continue to work hard regardless of what happens.
In detail what he said:
For the victory over Villerban: “With all due respect to Zalgiris, we deserved the win. I’m not just saying this for today. There were many times when we were close to winning, but we didn’t manage to do so. You might ask if it was hard on us. It was very hard. Because I don’t like to see my players suffer. Eduardo Casaleone (his assistant) suffered a lot. This is what I don’t like at all. The same applies to Pierik Poupé (his other assistant)”.
About the team’s progress so far: “Of course, sometimes our task is easier, sometimes not, but I am very happy with what I have achieved so far since I took over. Results aren’t everything, but they count. Everyone can think differently about me. But that’s okay, I’ll keep working and try to do my best. I’m also very happy for the fans, because they deserve it.”
For his future: “Will I be here next week? It’s business. I know how it works. I think I’m a good person. I am a hard worker, I never complain. Everyone can have a different opinion and the only solution is to keep working. I never work thinking about my future.”
