An interview with Stefan Radu

This one is from the biggest sport magazine here in Romania (Gazeta Sporturilor gsp.ro) .. and i`ll try to translate as best as i can.

- Fane, what is the key of your succes at Lazio ?
- Maybe those are big words, but work and full discipline brought me here.

- More details ?
- After i left Romania, 2 years ago, i closed down all chapters: bars, clubs. Night life doesent exist for me and i like myself in that way, i think it fits me! If 22:30 o`clock founds me in Rome, once per month, it means is something special. Many times i laugh with my friends and they are telling me that i`m behaving like an old man


- Do you miss Romania ?
- Yesss, but just my family. In rest, why should i miss anything? Fights, arguments? No! Miss bars and people who take advantage from your work? Not at all! I tell you: i congrat myself because i left in time

- You were a boy who used to go alot in bars, how did you calm down so sudenly?
- I`m not a loner. I have my girlfriend here, and i see my friends when i have free time. This holiday i had only 4 days off. I rest most of the time. I know it sounds weired, but let me tell you something: in 2 years i didnt had the chance to visit all Rome.


- Are you happy because you went to Lazio ?
- Yes, i`m very happy, i think that was the best choice in my life. Too bad that, although we have a team who can play in Champions League, we have alot of bad luck. That`s why we arnt higher in the table.

- Press in Italy wrote that Bayern Munchen wants you.
- I don`t know. We are in a bad situation in Lazio. I don`t think at all to leave, my thoughts are only about how to save us.

- We saw that italian jurnalists are praising you alot.
- Since i came to Rome, i never spoke to a jurnalist from here. Not at all. It`s just what they say on the field, in games, many trainig sessions being closed here at Lazio.


- You hadnt been called to national team in a while. Arnt you feel bad about it, considering that you play in serie ?
- At first, i wanted to say "no comment". But many would have interpreted in a wrong way. I dont think about national team. I mean, i want to make myself clear..Lazio is in a bad shape now in tha table, and i want to help this club to go higher. I don`t bash anyone. I`m just doing my job here. And since everyone knows Lazio`s fax number....we only need health ! :)

Nice words....great player!

Thanks for taking the effort to translate.

Nice to see what Radu thinks :)

indeed nice humble words. With that attitude he could come a long way... Perhaps ...

Nice effort from you!
I really appreciate the interview and i will report this words to Stefan next thursday night.

Thx for the translation! Starting to become a really big fan of Stefan, daje!!!

Cheers Kurmana. Nice Contribution.

Very honest words from a very good player. Without doubt our best centre Back.

My plesure guys :). I knew that Stefan didnt talked much with the press in Italy and i thought it`s a good chance too see some words from him about Lazio.

Now..it`s a good surprise to see how he changed. It wasnt a Cantona or a Terry...but you couldnt say that he wasnt a problem kid either, while he was in Romania. Which makes me think that he respects Italy and Lazio`s name and colours. Makes me proud, to be honest with you, considering that he`s from my country and my city as well :).

Tell us more..if you don`t mind. Subtle things over the internet it`s too common to fit a Lazio web site.

My post was not meant to be subtle... I thought my point was clear, as well as the "joke part" of my post. Anyway.

When I've read this sentence <"although we have a team who can play in Champions League, we have alot of bad luck. That`s why we arnt higher in the table"> I thought, what the hell, this is not Radu, it's Tare .
And I don't give a sh*t about what Tare's says, because I don't particularly like being "preso per culo". But it's just me.

Nice words. Daje, Stefan!
