Title: Press conference notes:
Post by: FPT on May 01, 2014, 12:16:31 PM
There's usually a post but isn't at the moment, so here's the notes:

Magath: Team quite fit apart from Steve Sidwell.

Magath: Players got excited after being 2-0 up and tried to score more rather than not concede.

Magath on Hull: It was terrible.

Magath: Two wins will be enough to keep Fulham up.

Magath: We know that Stoke is a very good team at home but we are confident that we have developed in the last weeks

Magath: There is no doubt about my future. I will remain here.

Magath: It's a wonderful club which has problems at the moment with the first team. We have a good youth academy. I'm here to build a team.

Magath on transfers: I don't care about next season, it's not necessary now, we have so much time after the end of the season.

Magath: Sidwell not currently in training, but there's still hope he may be fit.

Magath: The players know how to kick, but it's always a question of mentality. That is what we've developed.

Magath: We're fighting to stay in the league.

Magath says keeping Fulham up would be his greatest achievement.

Magath on relegation: I don't know that situation. I don't want to know what it feels like.

Magath: The supporters were fantastic against Hull and the players got too emotional.

Magath on Holtby: Last Saturday he was a little bit nervous, that's why I took him off.

Magath on Mitroglou: He may be in the squad, he's been training all week.

Magath on Amorebieta scoring: For him it's a new environment, but I think he'll develop depending on his abilities.

Magath: I'm always nervous. Without being nervous, you cannot bring 100%.

Shouldnt they all know how to kick regardless of mentality. Its only a football after all

I think we hang on managers' words and our manager's English, while very very good, is sometimes a little ambiguous.

I know, it was just odd that's all. I had heard that Holby was ill, so maybe that's what it was really.

Indeed.  Whatever happens in the next game or two, I think we're in good hands for next season.

For the first time in a long time it seems there's something being worked towards, even if he doesn't have the right players to do it.

I'd be furious if we got rid of him if we go down. He's at the age where it could well be his last job and he clearly wants to leave a legacy.

Next season will hopefully see the dawn of 'New Fulham' and the feel good factor will make an appearance once again.

Fingers crossed anyway!!

Or maybe that should be 'Old Fulham' finally returning.

Amorebieta.....will develop depending on his abilities (something lost in translation I think)

Or perhaps that all abilities are based on your attitude, without the desire and attitude to change something/adapt or improve your abilities wont.
