Guy Goodes was presented tonight (Monday) at a press conference as the head coach of Hapoel Holon after the dismissal of Maurizio Buscalia.
"I'm probably very addicted to adrenaline. They asked me why I'm not sitting at home and resting a bit, but I like challenges. It's an experience to be a part of this tradition and this club. I was welcomed with open arms, and we want to start working," the new coach began.
"I did not think I would return so soon," Goodes continued.
"I was already planning to go on holiday with my wife, and that's what's hard and beautiful in sports. It was an opportunity and I had to decide whether to sit at home or take up this challenge.
Staff changes: "I got on a train that flew at 180 mph, and the last thing I want is to shift my concentration to the wrong places.
I am currently thinking only of Besiktas, and then of the game against Hapoel Haifa in the quarterfinals of the State Cup.
After the next week, I will think about whether or not to make changes. "
The method of play: "It's no secret that I like fast basketball. Holon is a good defensive team, but there were too many attacks that went nowhere. We have to improve our shooting ability, and that sometimes makes the difference between losses and loss of confidence and victories that bring confidence. Everyone has Responsibility to bring his quality and experience. "
The crowd: "The crowd experience is powerful, and I have experienced it to this day from the opposing side. Now that crowd is behind me. I have been in big clubs with experiences of this kind, but in recent years less. These are the things that turn me on and push me to be the best I can be."
Club chairman Eitan Lanciano explained the dismissal of the previous coach: "When you feel around not having fun, even when you win, and when the little things do not work - then you can not replace all the players.
We all know we should not have been in the playoffs at all, but at the next stage. "
Goals: "We want to continue from where we left off, but in a slightly better and safer way, and I hope we give many moments of happiness to our crowd and return to ability from the start of the season, and that it will happen soon, because we do not want to fly on Wednesday from Europe."
