Marius Șumudică: ” Kait and N’Jie will not be part of the team”
Present at the press conference preceding the match against “Găzarilor”, Marius Șumudică (53 years old) announced which footballers he will not have at his disposal.
Thus, Rapid’s technician revealed that Mattias Kait and Clinton N’Jie are still injured and are not part of the team.
In addition, “Şumi” also spoke about Cristi Săpunaru: “Kait and N’Jie will not be part of the team. We hope that he will easily return to the team program. Săpunaru is needed in the cabin, first of all. We’ll see if he’s on the field tomorrow. We talk non-stop, we make decisions together. Practically, he is part, in quotes, of my staff. He is a group boy, he understands the situation and we will see if he will be part of the team tomorrow” , said Şumudică.
What Şumudică said about the match against Petrol: “We start from 0-0, we play at home, we have to be stronger, and at the end we have the strength to look each other in the eye and know that we gave everything for the victory. We need our supporters, who are unique. You don’t find the atmosphere on Giulești anywhere else in the country.
No other motivation is needed. The motivation must be to do more than in previous years. They finished 5-6 last year. We must also go as far as possible in the Cup. Maybe we will also go to a European cup, but I don’t want to make empty promises. I said that I will qualify the team for the play-offs, then a new championship will begin” .
Marius Șumudică, about a possible conflict with Clinton N’Jie: “Never, never”
Marius Șumudică gave an interview to the publication Spor Arena , from Turkey. The technician was also asked about the alleged conflict with Clinton N’Jie, who was visibly disturbed that Marius Șumudică changed him to UTA in the 65th minute.
Marius Șumudica said, in English, “never, never”, meaning “never, never” when he was asked if he had a conflict with the Cameroonian striker. He then revealed that he only talked to N’Jie three days after the tense moment and everything was cleared up.
” No, never!” Never. I know how to handle situations. Sometimes when you change a player after 65-70 minutes, they get upset because everyone wants to play 90 minutes. I know the mentality in Turkey, it’s even more difficult when you change a Turkish player. They always get mad when you change them, it’s not easy.
I am very happy when a player is upset if I change him, it means that in the next match he will give more for the team and for me.
I don’t like to talk hot, after the game. After three days, I talked to him, he came to me, he apologized for being nervous. He told me that ‘It wasn’t easy for me when you changed me, I don’t like that, especially since I came here with a big name’. But he is a professional, he helps us, he scored two games ago, he got us three points “, said Marius Șumudică.
