On Saturday we’ll play the last match of the season that will decide the league champion, but for me personally this will be a very sentimental evening as it will be our final match at Bloomfield Stadium before it undergoes an extensive renovation. For me Bloomfield is our home.
It’s the most homey pitch in the country and so much different than Ramat Gan where I also played. The fans sit on top of you here for the full 90 minutes. I have the privilege to greet you at every stadium when the players head out to warm up and at Bloomfield it’s extra special. Next year we will play in Netanya which is a brand new beautiful stadium and I’m sure you’ll also cheer us on nonstop there as well.
I’m a winner and I always wanted to win every single match, so there’s no question that I want to win this upcoming super important contest. If I had to look back at the match I remember the most it has to be my first Derby, and boy was it crazy. We won 4:0 and then we went on a terrific run that took us all the way to the championship. When I arrived I went to look around at the stadium and I was stunned by the atmosphere. All of the Yellow & Blue was unbelievable.
The times have changed and it’s time for Bloomfield to take a step forward and make the necessary improvements that will do us only good. I’ll be waiting for you at about 20:00 when we begin our pre-match warmups. See you then.
