His new coach Ari Betsson, Igor Milicicsaid he is confident that with hard work he will improve the team’s image.
“I knew what was going on in the team. Zisis explained the situation to me. I know what Mars represents. Maybe fate wanted me to come to the team now to handle it. I know about Mars fans, great as a home base. In recent years I have been in similar groups. It’s probably in my blood to coach such teams. Surely with a lot of work we will succeed“, said the Croatian coach.
“We need to build some things in the team. I want the team to fight, which I promise. We will have energy on the field. I have my tactics that I will pass on to the players. I want us to try from the first minute and fight. This does not always bring victory, but we will try from the first minute“, he added.
The 49-year-old coach goes straight into the deep end with matches against Hapoel Jerusalem and PAOK. “I signed before the match with Panionios so I have already seen one match and one win. As for Hapoel I am familiar. I do my own scouting. It won’t be an easy game. The season is not easy, but there are no excuses. The players are trying their best which is what I asked them to do. If this is enough we will see. We will definitely go for the win and fight. We know what we are going to do in the derby with PAOK“, he noted.
Finally, he showed an intention to improve the defensive part of Mars first. “Defense for me is the most important thing in the match. He can bring confidence to the team. In the two training sessions I emphasized this. All my players can do it. I want to adapt to the defense all the personalities, which is not easy. My defense tactics are not easy. From defense you get results and confidence».
