Chus Matthew broke his silence in the TO BE and the COPE Shortly after communicating your Real Madrid dismissal and the Fichaje de Sergio Scariolo occupying his place on the meringue bench.
Two or three days ago. Juan Carlos Sánchez told me. I would have liked to continue, it can be a certain surprise to win the league and not follow
The 56 -year -old Madrid coach was fired from Real Madrid after winning the Endesa League and adding six titles in three years at the head of a team in which he took the relay of Laureado Pablo Laso.
My march feared even winning. I've been listening to rumors from before the playoff, but then the ACB wants and you think rumors can be unfounded and you will continue because you have another year of contract
Chus Matthew to Manu Carreño in 'El Larguero': “I have not known anything more about Florentino Pérez from the celebration”
“Three days ago they told me that I was not going to continue and it was Juan Carlos Sánchez who told me. I did not want to investigate too much, although he told me that I hope I did not have to say this. I hope the titles continue in the future because I am from Real Madrid and I will always be.”
From the first day I took the team there were always rumors that someone could come to replace me. There has never been absolute tranquility and I have learned to live with this
“I am calm, there is no other left. You have to assume certain things that do not depend much on you, and if I am clear about it, I have been three extraordinary years in Real Madrid. I have left my life for it, so I go with my head up for the work done. I have not kept anything, I have given everything.”
The white team confirmed what an open secret was
“From the first day I took the team there were always rumors that someone could come to replace me. There has never been absolute tranquility and I have learned to live with this … not wasting time in other things.”
From the first moment I have always had a shadow on thinking that someone could occupy the Real Madrid bench
“I was afraid even winning. I have listening to rumors from before the playoff, but then you want the league and you think the rumors can be unfounded and you will continue because you have another year of contract. They signed you to give continuity to a project that was not going badly, I think I have been continuous to the great stage of Pablo Laso and that continuity was giving result. Made, with two ACB leagues with 3-0, three titles last year, a Euroleague.
“The results justify the work and we have won six titles, half of those we have played.”
“What has Florentino Pérez told me in the farewell? Mmm … What do you want me to tell you? We greet ourselves in the celebration to win the ACB, when we offered the title to the Community of Madrid and the City Council, but I have not known anything more of him. It's the truth. At the moment he has not said goodbye to me. He is in the United States and you have to understand it. I do not like to go around these things. others “.

Chus Matthew to Juanma Castaño in 'The game of Cope': “I thought that winning the ACB the rumors would dissipate”
“From the first moment I have always had a shadow, thinking that someone could occupy the Real Madrid bench. I have worked very quietly, despite all this. I tried to focus on mine, in my work, on the players, in the game, in the team …”.
I understand that there is someone who prefers to be a different way of doing things; I am not the only change and you have to assume it. What does not depend on me, I have stopped going crazy for it. “
“The rumors (about the signing of Scariolo) left for a long time. People comment and even in an interview they told me. I didn't stop looking at that. I'm not so.”
“I thought that winning the ACB all these things that had always been rumored, without foundation many times, or based but that had dissipated with the results … because surely they would surely change that possibility that always was around there.”
“Two or three days ago. Juan Carlos Sánchez told me. To assume a situation that was not to my liking but understand that someone preferred to change the way to do. I would have liked to continue, it can assume a certain surprise to win the league and not follow.”
“If we look at the numbers, the arguments would not be coherent because of 12 titles we have won half, with a record of percentage of historical victories in the ACB. But I understand that there is someone who prefers that it is a different way of doing things; I am not the only change and you have to assume it. What does not depend on me, a long time ago I stopped turning crazy about it.”
“Rencon, why? I have enjoyed three very good years, we have won six titles. We have won this season 30 of the last 31 games, without losing since December almost. What else can be asked. I am very happy and with my head very high for having done a very good job.”
Chus Mateo acknowledges that he would like to train the Spanish team: “Hopefully one day it can be”
“Direct the Spanish team? As I will not like to direct the Spanish team, sure. To the National Team and many other clubs. Hopefully, because I like basketball. There are many candidates for the bench of the National Team” (Ser).
“Who would not like to be a coach of the National Team? Of course. Like many other things. I am basketball coach and I would love to continue doing basketball. Of course the Spanish team is an extraordinary site … but I hope that one day it may be. I do not say that now or in the future. It does not have to be now” (Cope).
