After him Tasso Bakaseta and Panagiotis Retsos expressed his absolute support to his person Gustavo Poget.

The Greek central defender of Olympiakos emphasized that Poget, as the coach of the National team, deserves to be in the finals of the Euro together with the team, as long as Greece manages to qualify.

Retsos also expressed his belief in his statements to SPORT FM that with the performances of the National Team, he will manage to qualify through the playoffs for the stadiums of Germany.

Panagiotis Retsos stated in detail:

On his appearances this year:This year the season has started very well, I have gained games and confidence. I don’t look at what happened last season, I feel good in my body and I’m doing my best.”

If the bad seasons he had in previous years affected him psychologically: “It is something difficult, in a career there are not only pleasant moments. I had a continuous period of some years with injuries, but I had my family by my side. I also worked alone and I’m fine now.”

For the characteristic of playing with the ball at the feet: “I have always had this characteristic. I’ve definitely worked out some details about when to do it and when not to, and when to take risks. But the fact that I have very good players in front of me also plays an important role.”

For the match against France: “All the guys were good in this match. And that’s why we got this result in the grass. A big well done to everyone and “thank you” to the people who supported us and it was a very beautiful experience. We were hoping for a point for the win but when you play against opponents like that…”

About the National team and how it works: “Everyone will agree that when you play with the national emblem you leave the ego behind. The coach plays a big role in this as well. We were all at a good level. We have very good relations with each other and that plays a role.”

On Poget and the possibility of going to the Euros without him: “This should not be done. Let’s go to the Euro finals without this coach. Apart from us as a team, the coach also deserves to be in the finals. It would be unfair not to be.”

For the two playoff matches: “These are 2 unrelated matches that we played in the groups with France and Holland. We are all waiting how and how. We have no anxiety because we all have confidence in our abilities. If we show the image we had in most matches in the group then we will be able to qualify”.

If he felt we were good enough against France: “There were moments when we kept the ball more than we usually do with teams like this and I felt that we can get the win.”

For the appearance of the second half against France: “From the first half we had the feeling that we were good. In the second half we entered the match as if it was 0-0. And when we scored the goal then we were even better.”
