The head of our club's coaching staff, Vladan Milojević, expressed expectations ahead of the match of the 10th round of the Serbian Super League between Crvena zvezda and Železničar, which is scheduled for Friday, September 27, from 19:00 at the "Rajko Mitić" stadium.
The red and white strategist first looked at Mirko Ivanić's injury.
- It is difficult when you are without one of the players. Mirko Ivanić has a great influence on our game. We knew at the beginning of the preparations that we would need all the players to be ready, and that there would be situations like this. Ivanić has entered the recovery process and we expect him to join the team as soon as possible. When it comes to young Maksimović, there is still time, slowly - Milojević began.
The Železničar team is led by one of the youngest coaches in the domestic championship.
- Marko Savić showed a lot of enthusiasm and football knowledge, both in the previous and in the current club. He is doing very well and has a bright future ahead of him. It's nice to see young coaches who are at the beginning of their careers.
The experienced strategist then spoke about the qualities of the captain of Železničar - Lazar Romanić.
- I also spoke about Romanić last time when we played against Železničar. I have been following Lazar for a long time, he is Zvezda's child. His career took him on a different path. I had the opportunity to train him, but also follow him in Greece while he was playing for Lamia. He played phenomenal games and grew into a good player. Along with other football players from Železničar, we are also in danger from him.
Milojević referred to the health bulletin.
- We have an afternoon training, and after that a meeting with the fitness trainers and the medical part of the professional staff. We will see which players are tired and who needs rest, we have a lot of games. We will evaluate after training.
Media representatives were interested in whether there will be more than two bonus players in the starting line-up for the next duel.
- Personally, it does not pose any problem to me, as I mentioned the previous time. We will see with which players we will go out on the field, and the bottom line is important.
Two Red Star players - Marko Ilić and Andrija Maksimović - were on the wider list of the Serbian national team.
- We are pleased when a Red Star player is on the national team list. The selector has estimated that he needs such players, and we are at his service and at his disposal. All this makes us a great honor. I hope that the players who receive the invitation to the national team will represent us in a worthy way and will help the national team as much as they can.
Zvezda's strategist notes that the support of the fans will be very important for the players against the team from Pancevo.
- We are in a series of difficult games for three or four days. I think it will be a nice day and I invite the fans to come in as many as possible. We need their support, especially for the match against Železničar, which is a good and inspired team. We really need their support - underlined Milojević.
