Bologna coach very tough on Theate: ‘He was the worst on the pitch’

Siniša Mihajlović doesn’t have his tongue in his pocket. At a press conference, the Bologna coach explained his recent choices involving Arthur Theate. The least we can say is that he did not hesitate to say what he thought.

Despite a more than interesting season in Serie A, the end of the financial yearArthur Theate looks like a calvary. In his last two games, the defender has each time been taken off very early in the match without the exclusion of a teammate or an injury being the cause. Facing Venezia on May 8, he was released after 34 minutes and only played half time this weekend against Sassuolo.

At a press conference, his trainer, Siniša Mihajlović had very harsh words against him: “I can understand the anger at a premature change but what must never be lost is respect. Arthur Theate walked out without greeting and we explained each other. He can get very strong but he has to stay calmer In the game against Venezia I decided to replace Arthur Theate because I wanted to change my system but I could have changed any player Against Sassuolo I changed him because he was the worst on the pitch , he was the least attentive defender of all.”

In January, the Serb had already shown his annoyance at the behavior of the player. With a championship day still on the clock, the former Ostend player hopes to be able to show his coach another face before, probably, joining the Red Devils in June.
