Lucescu: “I have players with great motivation, a fair result would be 2-0”

In detail, what he said in the press conference:

For the victory and the absences of Kurtic and Zivkovic“Games in Europe are difficult. Each game has its own story. We got this victory and now we have to move on. For cards, in football, you have to be able to manage these issues as well. However, we have players who are ready to fight, to qualify. With this in mind we will move forward. It was a very good game for us, but that’s where my thinking ends and we focus on the next match. ”

For the condition of his team and the improvement that exists: «We started the summer with a lot of effort and a lot of players and you should know that I am not an easy coach and I do not have an easy team. The details are important and take time. This is the first element. The second is that in the summer there was a group of players who were not completely tied. There have been situations since last year. There were injury situations, there was covid and that made our job even more difficult, as we did not have a team, we worked together every day

The situation in general in the summer was a bit complicated, because we had an obligation to go to Europe and the program was difficult. From that point on we have improved a lot. Our mentality is very good, in terms of how we present ourselves on the field. We are clearly facing difficulties, as I can remember many games, such as the quarterfinal with AEK, the game with AEK that we were left with 10 players, the games with Midland that comes from a good league. The profit is that we can count on a much larger group of players, who play Wednesday-Sunday games. We are not perfect, but we continue to work on a specific line and I am happy “.

For Tsigaras and Lyratzis: «What can I say about these two? I am very happy with both of them. They are players who come on the field and do the right things. It’s part of the profit I said before».

For the presence of George Savvidis and how important it is: «I think we should talk about the presence of Mr. Savvidis in general. He is always by our side, he is in constant contact with all the members of the team and with me once a week or more. Things might have been a little harder for our opponents if they were here. For today, we are satisfied with the victory and in general. We are happy for the fact that we are getting closer and closer to the people who represent PAOK».

For the strengths that his team seems to have: «It is a part that we work on in general, that of fitness. Players feel good and come in to fight. We have the confidence after the consecutive good games. Our goal is to go to Belgium and win. We know we play well away from home and we will fight to qualify».

For the attack of the coach of Ghent for the full roster: «I think I have already answered. As a coach, I have to move forward and think positively. I know I have highly motivated players who are immediately available to play. They may not have the same quality, but they have different elements and a huge motivation that exists in these games. They are good games and difficult. It is completely different to play with teams that play in the league, because you will be called to face them many times. The fairest result today would be a 2-0, as the game went, even though we faced a difficult team. In the first 15-20 minutes, we did not have the necessary confidence to impose the pace we wanted a little faster».
