Nikolic: “Difficult to add to tomorrow – games … chess with Anderlecht”

Reduced … dramatically hopes for transcriptional blow from AEK In the following hours the Marco Nikolic.

On the sidelines of statements on COSMOTE TV, the Serbian technician argued that there would be a difficult move from the “yellow -blacks” until Wednesday night, so no addition to the list is expected.

Noted that it takes patience by saying that they cannot change everything in one day while not failing to thank them Mario Iliopoulos and Javier Ribalta about what they do for the team.

With regard to the clashes against Under For the Conference League playoffs, he likened them as a batch … chess. Referred to the Dolberg and Azar They need attention, he stressed that the Belgians are a dangerous whole, and for his team he said he was on the right track.

-For his thoughts, in view of the struggle with Anderlecht.

“Two difficult rounds behind us, two difficult opponents, two wins and two draws. We have had two difficult rounds and now we are playing in the play -offs against Anderlecht, a historic European team. A team that has quality footballers, such as Dolberg, such as Azar, like many. He is, without a doubt, the most difficult opponent so far. But we are on the right track, with a very good mood. In training the players are motivated and ready for the game. We also feel that we are maturing as a team, we are happy and impatient to start the game. It’s a knockout game for the play -off phase, we have to play as in chess: very smart in every move. Because Anderlecht is a team that if you start the “run and gun” on the pitch, it can become very dangerous. It has young and fast players, they are a youthful and talented team. And for this reason, it is clear to all of us what is our work and we are properly prepared in every detail. I think players perceive the moment. I believe we will also have very good support from the world, with the aim of returning with a very good result. “

-For whether it’s one of the games that need more mind.

“It takes concentration, dedication, discipline throughout the match. What I didn’t like in the last round against Mars Limassol was the way we conceded all three goals. It was, I just say, “gifts”. Obviously, our opponent did something well to score, but our decisions were not good. So, we took the lesson, we didn’t pay for it because we qualified for the next round, but we should now be very focused and motivated. Of course, Anderlecht is, as I said, a historic European team. Spiritually, for us, it’s a little different now because the ball is now on their own side. In the previous two rounds everyone thought that AEK was the favorite even if opponents were two serious teams, Hapoel Ber Seva and Aris Limassol, which I was constantly saying. But now it is clear to everyone that we have a very strong opponent against us. So, psychology is different before the game. “

-For if it has a new one in relation to a possible change in AEK’s European list.

“For the time being … sorry, but I don’t have any good news about any change. But there are 24 hours left even as they say … Hope dies last! The truth is that everyone is trying, they do their best and once again, I would like to publicly thank the president. First of all, because so far it is doing everything for both the renovation of our coaching center and the rebuilding of the team. It’s here for what AEK needs.

Also, the Managing Director, the football manager and all those involved in the process do their best to help strengthen the team. We also have some players here. Everything will be done and will be step by step, it is not possible to change everything in one day. “
