“It’s a very difficult moment for Bartek and us. He scored a beautiful goal after a great job, but he will remind him of this sad moment. We all support him and sympathize with him. He was in good shape, he gave us many options to play, but now we have to play Ernst Musi, Gozo and Rafa.” Lopez is in his position. Each of them suggests a different style of play, Partek was a different player. He got space, offered many options”- coach Michniewicz admitted during Friday’s press conference.
As he added, the team will have to slightly change how they play.
“In the middle of the field we have Partek Slech, Andre Martins and the young but inexperienced Kuba Kessel for the day. There is nothing more. We have to sit down and talk about it. After our return meeting with Flora, we will be there talking and we will look where we want to go. That with players we will not achieve until December. Injuries or cards will cause big problems. We will have to change our way of playing. Bartik fills the empty spaces, which we always fight for. The players I mentioned play a little differently “- emphasized the coach.
