Igor Stimac backs Josko Jelicic and says he would not have tolerated Gennaro Gattuso’s behaviour after TV row

The former Croatia coach, Igor Risak, says that the behavior of Gennaro Gatoso in his public spat with TV analyst Jusku Gilic was “not worthy of Hungdock coach.”
Gatoso captured Gilic’s criticism of his and his team after the 3-0 defeat of Hagdouk on the title of the title on Sunday, and they refused to shake his hand or speak to him during the post-match interview.
Things were heated between Joško Jeličić and Gennaro Gattuso after the match.
Stimac, who won the Croatian title with Hajduk as a player and coach, did not like, although he admitted a strong link with Jelicic.
“Although I was the best man at his wedding, we are Hamimon friends, I have no reason to be personal.
“What Gatoso did is not appropriate for him, as a global hero, who is not worthy of him as a coach for Hagdouk, and is not appropriate for him as a foreigner in this country, and not the respect of those who comment on the matches.
“Regardless of the irony that Joško knows, in which he knows how to spoil it, which is not flawed, we can analyze everything he said, and there is no one part of a lie there.
“Therefore, he hits the exact place that he needs, and comments it that 99 percent of people agree with them.
On Sunday’s defeat, you witnessed the second place, and two points worsened behind the Rijicica and Rishak table in the influence of Gatoso in the division since his assumption of June last year.
“What did he bring to Hagdouk?” He added. “I think it is as long as your grandfather, Dinamo [Zagreb]Osijek and Rijeka does not insist on each of the results and [quality of] Play and will not go football and league in the right direction.
“This must be the priority of every coach, because the clubs pay them well.
“I ask a logical question.
“You shoot the target once, and do not give anything at all, your team does not have any criteria, you do not have format, and you do not have continuous movements, you do not have groups, and you have nothing.
“Many players have played constantly in wrong situations, and I still dare to do so after this game, after a 3-0 defeat, to come to the studio and the threat.”
STIMAC was a meaningful half-central in the playing profession that included a difference in West Ham and Derby, and he was not sure that he was able to contain himself the way Gilic did against Gatoso’s runner.
He said, “I was lucky because I was not there.” “It wasn’t good.”
