In spite of becoming at the prime of Allsvenskan and in the Europa Conference League playoffs, AIK selected to hearth Bartosz Grzelak. Now Henok Goitom has taken about as supervisor and got off to a very good begin with a 4-2 acquire at IFK Norrköping
Soon after the match, Fotbollskanalen questioned Mikael Lustig how he sees Grzelak currently being fired.
– We had superior effects with Bartosz very last yr. We are still at the best, but in phrases of effects and how it went in the close, the club felt a transform was needed, he says.
Do you comprehend the selection?
– Indeed, it is crystal clear that no participant is delighted with how points went. Then we also have an understanding of that we are the gamers who are on the pitch and have to give their all, and we didn’t. So every person is informed that this failure we have had in the final month is of the administration, the specialized personnel and, over all, of us players. So everybody need to look in the mirror and see what they did mistaken. Then you have to try out to shift on.
What was lacking in the video game?
– A very little flexibility. Number of obvious tips. It looks like before, at least we realized how to protect. We experienced gamers on the area who have performed an remarkable range of game titles and who know how to solve circumstances. We failed to participate in the most effective football, but when we scored 1- we understood we were being very robust and we realized accurately what the team-mate upcoming to us was heading to do. This was not the case this calendar year. We’ve misplaced some senior players, introduced in some young players who arrive with superior vitality and want to engage in good football, and we haven’t been equipped to develop that football. And I can feel that AIK as a club would like to engage in offensive soccer with a ton of youthful players that can be bought in the foreseeable future, and we haven’t witnessed any of that in latest months.
Some argue that the crew is not excellent enough, how do you see it?
– If you search at previous calendar year, perhaps you yourself, and not even the media, you consider you have been very good ample and that we had been aiming for an intermediate position. But we dropped the gold by goal change. We did so very well due to the fact we had fantastic characters and excellent players. But when you are this close and lose at the finish, you are not satisfied with ending in the leading five up coming 12 months.
– We want to earn SM gold and we will go to Europe, and then you know what it takes, and possibly that is where by the communication amongst the players of the club and us bought a little bit interrupted. The sensation was that if we had brought course players and expanded the squad, simply because we know that in Europe it is very tricky, it is usually tiring for matches in Europe, and you simply cannot afford to pay for it at Allsvenskan. So it is obvious that there was hope that it would be installed, but then I do not know how it appears fiscally in AIK.
– It could very very well be that they desired to commit in young gamers and hope they could promote for 40-50-60 million, it would have been a golden put. I would have bought it far too, but then they wanted to get it out way too. But past 12 months we experienced the sensation of being so shut, and then you often want to feel that you go into next time and are a little more powerful and a minor improved, and that is exactly the emotion you didn’t have right before this period.
