​Mirel Radoi explained that Mihai Stoicice made an important contribution when the former coach decided to leave the Romanian national team, and now the technical director of the FRF reacted.

Mirel Redoi, who is bothered by Mihai Stoykice: “When I see that he comes out and shouts, I don’t accept”

The former coach said that he wanted to leave during the match against Iceland (preliminaries of the 2022 World Cup), he was embarrassed by Stojcice giving instructions to the players in the stands.

“I already get along very well with the leadership of the Federation. I didn’t go to argue with anyone. But even now I blame her on Mihai. When I see that the technical director of the Federation comes out and shouts “Up, up, up!”, I do not accept.

I accept from the viewer. He is free to say what he wants. But not from the technical director. Because the CTO made me do it. If you start talking, then you don’t trust. And I don’t have to be there anymore.

No, it was the first youth match. And then it happened in the match with Iceland, 0:0, at home. We had the ball, and he shouted: “Forward.” As if we didn’t know at 0-0 that we had to win the match to finish second.

I told him that if it happened a second time, I would leave. It happened. And I went to prove it. I waited for the match to end. If we were leading, we would come off the bench during the match. I wanted to leave Dick. Seriously!” – Mirel Radoyon the podcast, quoted by GSP.

Mihai Stojčice, surprised by Mirel Radoja’s statements: “I don’t think he said that”

Stoykice stated that he has a good relationship with Redoy and that he does not understand how this discussion arose.

“When did he say that? I don’t think he said that. It’s like a theme a year or so ago when it was a game against Iceland that was decisive. As I recall, after that game ended We there were several meetings where I almost convinced him to stay in the national team.

I do not understand. I went with the president to see him. Then, in Liechtenstein, on the plane, I talked to him alone, I told him that this is happening because we want to win, I shouted: “Get up, get up.” I don’t even remember what I screamed. I don’t think he was at the youth match. I don’t even know what match.

Then there were probably spectators at Voluntar, I don’t know if it’s audible, they allowed me to shout. I don’t know if it was heard. I’m surprised, I’ve talked to Mirel before but never picked up on this topic again. I have never been bothered by someone shouting in the stands, it still happens, any spectator can shout.

Why bother me (if Sandoy was calling)? He wants to help me, not destroy me. Why not? Well, you didn’t yell at your players, Florin (or Florin Prunia), when you were in Iasi? When there was also a crisis situation.

If he accepted meetings with the president and me after the match with Liechtenstein, which Mirel was clearly told about… The meeting took place two or three weeks later. Then the players came and took me from the table so that I could go to the president and tell him that they wanted him to continue coaching.

After that I went and took the steps.

I don’t see a conflict, I don’t understand where this problem suddenly comes from. The relationship is still good. To be honest, I don’t know, about two years have passed, there was also a failure, not making it to the playoffs, some time passed, then there were many discussions with many coaches.

But after that campaign, after the match with Liechtenstein, I had three meetings with Mirel and the president. He didn’t say no from the start, he asked for some time to think. After that, he made an excuse that he wanted to train club teams, train every day. He went to Craiova, didn’t he?’ – Mihai Stoichitse on DigiSport.
