Geiger: “Petkovic is competent and will succeed with the Algerian national team” – New Algeria

Swiss coach Alain Geiger spoke. About his compatriot, and the new coach of the national team, Vladimir Petkovic, stressing that he has great experience, which will benefit the warriors in the coming period.

In an interview with a website The New ArabHe said Swiss “The Algerian Federation has chosen A coach Competent, he can bring a lot to the Greens. As he did with the Swiss national team, it is true that he is considered younger compared to the rest of the names such as Hugo Bros, Carlos Queiroz, and Jose Becer, but he has the ambition and desire to succeed outside Europe.”

Geiger also stressed at the same time that Petkovic is a mixture of football schools, and said in this regard: “I consider him a mixture of several schools; Yugoslav, Croatian, Italian and Swiss. This may be in the interest of the Algerian national team, which has professional players graduated from several leagues. He is a coach familiar with modern football, due to his work in several strong leagues. He also loves his work. Always thirsty for victories. He has a more than wonderful relationship with his players, without forgetting his work as a national coach for a long time with Switzerland. “I am confident in his ability to succeed with the Algerian national team.”

“The quality of the Algerian players will be in his favor.”

In the same context, the former coach confirmed to ES Setif club that he is a quality playerFor Algerian players, who are currently in the national team, would help the new coach, and he concluded by saying: “Compared to the stars that the Greens have, Petkovic will be very lucky in his new experience.” Especially since he is known for his offensive play. Players of the caliber of Adam Ouanas, Houssem Aouar and Amine Goueiri will allow him to implement all his ideas. He is the one who plays in more than one style in one match. Because he is a coach known for his tactical savvy, and I am eager to see what he will offer the Greens. Although I realize that the mission will not be easy as long as he is facing his first challenge in Africa. “It will examine the extent of the pressures on the Algerian national team.”

“He will lead the team to the forefront again.”

At the conclusion of his speech, the former coach assured many Algerian clubs that Petkovic would be able to prepare the Greens for the African front again, and he added: “I am optimistic that Algerian football will return to its former glory with this coach.” But the football community must extend a helping hand to him. He does not have much information about the atmosphere of African football, which has its own characteristics. As for myself, I hope to receive it soon. An invitation from the Algerian Federation to attend one of the matches of the Greens, which will overcome all its problems. He will regain his brilliance with Vladimir Petkovic.
