In the determination of his footballers, but also in the importance of the victory over PAOK in Toumba for Aris, the Akis Manzios at the press conference.
The experienced Greek coach, after his team’s victory in the Thessaloniki derby, focused on the fact that the “yellows” are winning in a second consecutive derby, answered questions regarding the situation of Veleth, as well as Mayo-Fabiano, while concluding by mentioning on Quaison’s availability and whether he is ready for the match against Lamia.
His statements in detail:
“To congratulate the children. They scored an important victory in terms of prestige, but also in terms of points. It was a demanding game. In the first half we made several mistakes and gave PAOK control. In the second half we started better and found the goal. We won an important victory. Derbies are a matter of day and will. We set the goal of winning tonight and we came and made it happen.”
For the game against Lamia: “Let’s focus on the victory, the 2nd in a row in a derby and from the day after tomorrow we will start dealing with Lamia.”
For the quartet: “I think that every victory has its value. Beyond that, it’s too early to say big things. We are a new team and it is too early to draw conclusions. We have to find stability going forward.”
On Veleth and the forced change: “He has a muscle spasm. We will know more tomorrow…”
For the absences of Mayo and Fabiano: “It is not the best thing to have absences, we have good footballers and whoever plays must give his best.”
On the possibility of seeing Quaison against Lamia: “He will be evaluated, but he is still not ready for the game against Lamia.”
