Luís Castro admits he is frustrated with his situation at Nantes. The former youth coach of Benfica says he feels frustrated by his team’s string of results, having dropped points again, and also added criticism of the refereeing. The Portuguese coach does not know if he will remain in his position.

"I feel enormous frustration over everything that happened during the game", Luís Castro began, confiding to the local press, unable to hide his irritation over the refereeing mistakes that occurred in the match between Nantes and Lorient.

"It’s better not to say more, because I don’t know why no one respects our club", said the former coach of Clube da Luz’s youth teams, in statements to Ligue 1+. In addition, Luís Castro has felt increased pressure from the fans, as he has been criticized because of the team’s results.

"I can’t control that. I try to do my job as best as I can. I’m not going to wear myself out over things I can’t control", the Nantes coach also added, stating that it is a waste of time to point out the repeated mistakes in the games.

"It’s not up to me to decide whether I stay or not. I do my job as best as I know how. The things I can’t control don’t worry me", concluded Luís Castro, at a time when Nantes occupies 15th place in the French championship, close to the relegation zone.
