Officially, yes, but for several years I have been on the coaching bench as an assistant to such greats as Nicola Grbic and Gheorghe Cretuso I had a lot of opportunity to get acquainted with the best workshop in the world of volleyball and I hope that I will be able to take full advantage of it. That's why I'm not afraid of the challenge. We all really want to advance to the next phase of the Champions League and that is why we have carefully prepared for the two-legged match against the team from Ankara. We are getting back into shape and I hope we will prove it on Wednesday."
