After the defeat against Aek Atena, the striker vented to Sky microphones: “We can’t make two or three passes in a row. We need more support from the stands, even when we make an easy thing wrong”
Edin Dzeko asks for the fans’ help. And after the defeat against Aek Athens, the second consecutive match in the single round of the Conference League, in front of Sky’s microphones he vented: “Can we say that we are doing shit? Yes, it’s true but it’s not possible that after every adverse episode the fans will boo us. Maybe I won’t be there tomorrow, but a lot of these guys will. We don’t play well, I know, but during the match it doesn’t go that way.”
The analysis
—
I didn’t expect this match to be like this, losing in the end, because in any case we trained very well, the boys were fine – said the attacker – the coach had trained us well tactically. In the first half we did better because we created something, they disallowed two goals for us, but they scored and then the result was more difficult. In the second half we lost too many balls, we are doing badly, maybe we don’t deserve this shirt but instead of being booed, we ask to be helped. During the match we deserved more support.”

And then: “We need more support during the match – reiterates Dzeko – The stadium is strange, we are in difficulty but we need more help. What if I see fear in the eyes of my teammates? I have experienced everything in my 20-year career but above all the young guys need more support even from the stands, even when a pass is missed. We can’t make two or three passes in a row, we prepared well to do good things, we knew they were a good team, it seemed like we were carrying the ball too much on our own, not there were plays but it’s difficult to say why all this happens. Each of us asks ourselves questions, I for one have to give more. How are we physically? I can certainly say that we are not at our best but the team has worked well in the last two weeks, the boys were very happy with the work done and we already felt we were improving against Juve.
