On the team’s situation:

«It’s a tough situation, because we failed to defeat Iraklis and claim a very important three-pointer. We must leave everything behind now and perform well on Sunday. It’s our opportunity to show that we are a good and strong team. We are focused exclusively on the encounter against Panathinaikos«.

On whether the team gets affected by administrative changes:

«We are all aware of the situation. These changes have nothing to do with the team and the coaching staff though. The most important part are the players, who reflect the team’s potential. We must be stronger to prove that we have a strong side. We can do that on Sunday against Panathinaikos«.

On whether he is ready to assume the responsibility of the team’s attack:

«Several key players are injured and that creates problems for us. We must deal with the situation. Many players have proven that they can live up to expectations and can play for PAOK. We must be strong now, as we are in dire need of points and need to win on Sunday. Our coach will pick the players he considers the best for this match«.

On Panathinaikos:

«They are also having problems and got eliminated from the Greek Cup. They want to win to make up for their latest defeat. It’s a high profile encounter and we will fight for the three-pointer. In my opinion, the team to score the opener will win«.
