It has been circulated that I said how Olympiacos will qualify for the next phase. I have not said. There are three strong teams, Olympiacos, Porto and Marseille “. “The teams are worthy to advance to the next phase. The value of Olympiacos was not recognized in the press and I am not referring to the Greek media who recognize the value of Olympiacos.

We are confident, but I think we have to play against a team of good quality and good guidance and the game will be difficult.”
Since you know Porto and Conceiçοo, how do you expect your opponent to appear?
“It is going to play aggressively, a team that can play different systems. We can face it, either against a system with three defenders, or with 4-4-2. Our players have the ability to adapt to the conditions. There will be” Moments in those in which Porto will be superior and other moments in which we will be. It will be a balanced game and we will have to make our decisions on how to tackle it. “
Tomorrow you will play after many months in a crowded stadium. Is this a help for Porto?
“I don’t see it that way, I see very positively the fact that the stadium will have fans. We need fans. Soccer needs passion and that will help both teams. We have played in seats with many people and they have responded. We have the experience of that can’t bother us with the atmosphere. “
How do you assess the decision of the Greek federation not to play against PAOK?
“This has nothing to do with the decision of the federation, but with the fact that PAOK played on Thursday in Europe, we have the game here with Porto on Tuesday and that is why the game could not be on Saturday or Sunday. UEFA regulations and not the Greek federation. Regarding the preparation of our game, the fact that we did not have a match on the weekend really helped us. Olympiakos did not have a chance to prepare. Many of our players they were absent in the previous and minor days that concept helped us “.
Mist, who is here, can help. And also, why did Ba and Sudani stay in Athens?
