Atmosphere within the team...
Atmosphere within the team is very good. We were been preparing calmly to the match against Lech. In Poznan we will be ready to show everything we have got.
Mostly it was the team's mentality that I had to prepare. We had little time for group training session, and therefore we did not manage to chance much in the team's way of playing, but I believe that I have managed to improve the team's mental spirit ahead of the upcoming games.
The favorite of tomorrow's match
I believe that the two teams have equal chances [to advance]. Let's not forget that we are talking about two matches and our main aim is to get the best score possible here in Poznan. I want the clash to be prejudged only in the second match where we will be able to win in front of our own fans and advance to the next round of Europa League play-offs.
The club's current situation...
The club's current situation is far from perfect, but I believe that we did not win the championship by accident. We have a big chance to get a good score here in Poznan and advance to Europa League group stage after the second leg.
We have begun the season with a new coach, while many great players who have been fundamental in Videoton's recent successes left the team. The players that stayed had only two weeks to rest and regenerate before competing in Champions League qualifications. We are still looking for new footballers that could come and strengthen our team.
Lech Poznań...
We are glad that so many Hungrian players represent Lech. We know that the club from Poznan is a very strong and solid team. However, that fact doesn't influence our preparations for tomorrow's game.
Most of all, Lech's strength lies in the team as a whole and so we focused on the collective, not the virtues of individual players.
