How do you feel following the hostile chants once morest you?
“Obviously I’m in pain. The supporters’ goal has been achieved. I would have preferred them to attack me on sporting choices rather than cowardly with completely outdated comments. We are the most transparent club in Belgium. Living what I experienced tonight, at home, in my club, by my supporters, it’s not fun. The human has picked up a big blow but I have no right to be fed up.”
What are the solutions to get out of the crisis?
“We have to win games. If we go on and achieve a series, it will be better. If not, it will go less and less well. Some supporters have decided to target the man but their chants do not hold up. . The life of leaders is thankless. When you win, it’s not necessarily thanks to me and when you lose, it’s always because of me. That’s how it is.”
Do you regret not having hired a confirmed number 9 this summer?
“A confirmed striker costs 5 million euros, I don’t have them. If we have additional funds, we can change our sports policy. Today, I can’t afford it despite the fact that the all the funds from the sales remained in the club’s coffers. It is verifiable because published. If the supporters have a buyer, let them bring him, no problem.”

Is Edward Still threatened?

What sporting mistakes did you point out on the pitch on Tuesday?
“At the time in 2012, we had 4 members of Mazzù’s staff. The cameraman-editor was the video analyst. Today, we have around Edward Still 8 full-timers. I hope I can have a sports meeting with these people so that they can tell me what their analysis is and what the solutions are.
