Sopić: We will bring warriors who will return the club where it belongs

Osijek things were not in place until now. Looking at the table causes consternation among all fans, and something must change urgently. &Zcoron;eljko Sopis; he still has no victory on the bench of Osijek (two defeats in the league, relegation from the Cup against Varaždin and four draws), so this holiday season Osijek’s strategist must find some new energy so that their season can finally start on an upward trajectory. Some reinforcements have arrived, some have been announced, but it’s time for Osijek to wake up.

– We shouldn’t lie. The situation is not good, but I am confident in our spring revival. I know what we need for that. I don’t want to hide behind anyone, I take responsibility for everything that has happened since my arrival in Osijek. Now, why all this is happening to us together is a much deeper topic. Basically, I gave my superiors a list of players that I would like to see in our team in the rest of the season, I said which positions are in question and specifically which players. So I don’t have any nervousness – said Sopić for Glas Slavonije and added:

– We need more passion and speed on the field and what real men have. At the moment, we don’t have enough of that, but don’t be sad for me, my Osjes, during the holidays. This is a very artificial landing for NK Osijek, that is a fact, however, believe me that we will bring exactly what we need. Warriors who will return this club to where it belongs.

The team is on vacation, and will gather again on June 3.

– The boys will receive programs to work on during that short period of rest, and it remains to be seen in what condition any of them will appear at the roll call. There are a lot of poor people, there are also a lot of those who are older. longer than the current process, and we expect their return with the start of winter preparations like Yannick Toure. Basically, we will welcome the premiere in the second part of the season when Dinamo comes to us with a considerable number of new faces and a completely different guard compared to the one we had during the fall. I believe that they will cheer us on and support us along the way. I am completely optimistic, although it is very difficult to speak from this position when a lot of people in Croatia are jubilant about our position and the problems we are facing. We will get out of this. I don’t even think about anything else – said the coach of Osijek.

HNL returns on January 24, and for Osijek, the most difficult task possible. Visiting the current leader Dinamo. The new reinforcements need to adapt, all the players should play very well and get to work if they want to fulfill their coach’s announcements. Osijek and its fans are expecting a very interesting continuation of the season, which can potentially bring redemption, but also the worst possible scenario.
