Pini Gershon, the volcanic former coach of Maccabi Tel Aviv, was rather critical of Ergin Ataman and Kostas Sloukas in a recent interview with sports.walla.co.il<\/a>, focusing on the performance of Panathinaikos AKTOR.<\/p>\n

Speaking about Ataman, Gershon said: “Ataman talks more than he coaches. I understand the pressure, he is closer to coaching in Turkey next season than in Greece. And where will be decided by Maccabi. I don’t want to get into politics because it’s nonsense. He and Giannakopoulos created a story to put pressure on the referees, but the behaviour of Panathinaikos in recent years does not tilt the EuroLeague on their side”.<\/p>\n

Commenting on Sloukas’ performance and the team’s attitude, Gershon said: “I saw a \u20ac3.5 million player with no self-esteem in Game 3. Sloukas has a lot of experience, but he lost all his self-esteem.<\/p>\n

He added about the team management: “Some Panathinaikos players don’t want him as a coach. He sat on the bench in the third game and that sends a bad message to the players. A coach must always be on the pitch so that the players feel he is on their side.<\/p>\n

The second leg of the tie, which will be played in Belgrade with Maccabi leading Panathinaikos 2-1 in the series, is scheduled for 20:45 tonight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
