Satsias on his dismissal from Lamia: “We said that patience would be needed”

His distress over the development that his collaboration with the Ghoul expressed Marinos Satsias in his statements to metrosport. The Cypriot coach talked about a plan that was left in the middle, underlining that he would like more patience from the team’s management, but concluding that he has no complaints about this decision.

What he said in detail:

For his dismissal:

“The result was to blame. The team played good football, with the exception of the game against Atromitos. Decisions are always acceptable. The plan went very well. We said that the project will be to integrate new children, with a reduction in the budget. I accepted it, but along the way, it seemed that we had an issue in midfield. We wanted one or two experienced footballers. In difficulties to come forward. Unfortunately, it didn’t happen.”

For the differences between last year and this year’s team:



“I didn’t catch Siova’s addition. The kid came unprepared… The quality of last year’s team is not comparable to last year’s, only Carlitos scored 10 goals and gave 25 points. We didn’t have the easy goal this year, we had phases, but we lacked quality.”

On the feelings left by his departure:



“I am upset. I have worked hard for the team to reach this level. All the players came from the second national team or did not play in their teams, we lacked the leading figures. We were doing well. The decisions are acceptable, although I don’t agree with them, but that’s how football is. I have no complaint and thank him for the trust. I waited for more time and for the plan to be understood. We had said that patience was needed since the team would rely on young guys.”

For the Mars profile:



“They are a quality team, with good players in the midfield. With the subordinate teams there is a complacency and as Lamia we could take advantage of that. I think he would struggle against a closed defense. We proved what we can do with AEK and Olympiacos. Manu Garthia, but also the extremists are quite dangerous. But he also creates and plays vertically. It is an integral part of Mars.”

For the games against AEK and Olympiakos:



“In AEK and Olympiakos there are several good footballers. We, for example, were torn to pieces by El Kaabi. I can’t say about anyone in particular. In order to get a result in such games, you have to close the spaces and your opportunities to score goals”.
