Florinel Coman stood out in the duel with Israel, but not for his offensive game. The FCSB star defended in his own half and kept the visitors at bay with a successful defensive display. On the offensive side, things didn’t go as well. Coman, known for his penetrations, failed to break through the opponent’s defense.
Florinel Coman, left-back for the national team
“You better tell Burleanu and the federation… take the coaches and send them out to take some training lessons and learn how to position the players on the field. That’s my impression. If we don’t move, if we don’t get the ball, we stay in our half.
Either we are too stupid, we have no value, but I don’t believe that. Either the coaches don’t know or they are too scared. If you tell the players not to cross the halfway line and play 4-5-1, they play 4-5-1 and stay there in their own half.
And then Coman comes to defend, well what else is Coman supposed to do if you play him as a left-back. How can he have the strength to score goals? Well play, man, fobtal, as Stanciu said. Stanciu said it, he said it, he said we have aggressiveness, we are strong and powerful, that’s what he said,” said Gigi Becali.
Romania was dominated by Israel
Romania’s game disappointed everyone. With a defensive approach, the national team only managed to secure one point from the duel with Israel, thus missing the chance to climb in the standings. Despite a fully packed stadium, Iordănescu’s players couldn’t find the necessary strength to win the match.
“But then what? We still have to play football. If you have aggressiveness, strength, and value, who’s stopping you from playing football? Then the coach is the one who makes you not play football. We have aggressiveness, we have value, we need to play football. He makes us defend when we play with 50,000 spectators.
I have to say what I think, that’s why you called me. I don’t want to upset anyone, but I’ll tell you my opinion. Djokovic didn’t play, if from the television I see that his name is not even mentioned, he’s hiding from the game. Well, if Marin didn’t say anything. There were two Marins and I didn’t hear Marin.
There were two on the field, but I didn’t hear Marin. How can two be on the field and you not hear about Marin. Well, there were two Marins and I didn’t hear Marin. If I didn’t hear, it means the ball didn’t go through him. If the ball doesn’t go through you, stay home. You don’t go looking for the ball, you hide from it because you’re afraid. If you’re afraid, stay home.
I respect Marin’s father because he played for me. And the kid is a good player, but he’s not good anymore. It’s over, if the ball doesn’t go through him, he’s not good. The other Marin is not good, because the ball doesn’t go through him, he’s a midfielder. If the ball doesn’t go through you, you have to take it, that’s why you’re a midfielder,” Gigi Becali added.
