Pedro Troglio hits out at the press after Banfield draw | OneFootball

Banfield coach Pedro Troglio expressed his anger toward the journalists who called for his resignation as coach of the team from the southern part of Greater Buenos Aires and told them to their faces: “you’re bad people.”

Despite the journalists’ calls, Troglio’s continuity at Banfield was never in doubt, according to sources from the club in southern Buenos Aires province who confirmed it to Noticias Argentinas Agency.

“I’m upset with many of you, with many who have called for my head. This is really bad behavior, really bad behavior. Because you can criticize, give your opinion about football, but not call for a coach’s head, not call for someone to lose their job. You’re journalists, guys. And many of you are here. You’re journalists,” Pedro Troglio said firmly at the press conference.

“So you’re not people who can afford to get someone fired. Because I don’t come here and say, ‘Fire some of these people who ask all kinds of questions.’ I’ve been respectful from the first day I arrived here, and I think you’re acting in a way that I do not deserve. If you have problems with other people, you shouldn’t involve me in them,” he added.

“I want to make that clear because I’m leaving angry,” Pedrito continued. “Because I read, you know? And honestly, I brush it off, but it pisses me off that they call for a person’s head. Because I’m not some kid, I’m 61 years old, guys. I’m a football coach who works at this and comes every day to work, doesn’t get paid, and is busting his back like crazy.

“So for them to call for my head… and many who aren’t even here either, who hide, who don’t even dare to come… So they should be careful with that because I’m good up to a certain point, up to a certain point. After that, honestly, I come… I don’t even feel like it. If we had won, I wouldn’t even have come. I’m coming to…” he concluded.
