Heric says his short stint at the club was not an easy one from the day he arrived.
“It was very difficult from day one, to be honest. But obviously I have committed myself to the rescue mission and to improve the performances of the players as always. That was my aim,” the Serbian-born coach added.
“Besides all the challenges I had. I had a lot of challenges there. But as an experienced coach, I must say you definitely learn a lot about how to deal with all these things and then dedicate yourself to the players, and that’s what I did.
“I may have been strong in that regard, but there are some things I was not happy with, but every club and coach on the planet has a problem. So it’s not like there was anything special [about the problems I faced]. So I just need to solder on.”
With regard to whether he will be challenging his dismissal at the club, this is what Heric had to say: “I don’t know. I will sit with my lawyer when he comes back from the holidays.
“Coach Heric is a free agent now. So I am available for any other challenge. As you know, I can go anywhere and do my Job.”
