Head Coach Lito Vidigal spoke to the assembled press prior to his club’s Matchday 34 and addressed the upcoming month that will end off with a State Cup date against Bnei Yehuda:
“I am always thinking forward. Life only goes ahead. You can think of the past but most importantly you have to go forward. We have more games and we have the Cup that we have to take.”
Giving it all every training session:
“They are good professionals and they give everything in the training sessions. We make mistakes but that’s life. Everyone comes here is like a professional and they are looking to the future too.”
Plans for next season for players who will be out of contract:
“The league isn’t over yet and they have contracts until the end of the season. Only after that will we talk about what will be next season. We have 4 games to go and that is what is most important. The season ends after the Cup. We all have contracts and we will all fight to win the remaining 4 games. After this we can talk.”
Preparations for the next campaign:
“We make our choices together. We will see what was in the past and what we need in the future. If we think together we can meet our goals.”
Remaining as coach following the campaign:
“I am staying. We have talked about this.”
Giving opportunities for players who haven’t played much:
“Everybody is fighting and working for a chance to play. Of course, I am always making changes in the lineup to have players in the game that haven’t played much, but we are always looking to take the 3 points.”
Injury status:
“It’s part of the season and injuries are part of the games. We don’t have that many injuries and the medical staff is getting the players in condition to play.”
