Eugen Neagoe believes that Mircea Lucescu should call Alex Mitriță to the Romanian national team

Eugen Neagoe discussed about the situation of Alex Mitrițăabout who says that he should be selected by Mircea Lucescu at the national team of Romania. The former coach from Craiova University and Dinamo believes that Mitriță’s good developments recommend him for a place in the double with Kosovo and Lithuania in September. Moreover, the technician also offered a solution to “Il Luce”, with a starting formula, where Mitriță can be included.

“I can’t say it’s a mistake (not if Mircea Lucescu didn’t summon Alex Mitriță for the games of the Romanian national team in the Nations League). Here it is very important how Mircea Lucescu sees the matches with Kosovo and Lithuania.

It is important where he sees Mitrita in the team. At this moment, on the left side, where Mitriță likes, are Coman and Mihăilă. He could play in the position of number 10. After the last performances in the championship, I think he deserves to be called up. It depends on Mircea Lucescu, how he sees these aspects”, declared Eugen Neagoe at ProSport Live about the summoning of Mitriță to the Romanian national team for the action from the beginning of September.

Mitriță has minimal chances of being selected for the Romanian national team

Mitriță’s basic position is on the left flank of the attack, where Mircea Lucescu already has the options Vali Mihăilă and Florinel Coman. Thus, with the selection of Mitriță, “Il Luce” should find solutions to introduce the footballer of the University of Craiova in the starting formula.

“Starting from the idea that he will summon him, Mr. Lucescu first analyzed the scenario of using Mitriță as a central midfielder. In 4-3-3, the system of the national team so far, the role of an inter does not suit him, he does not have a consistent defensive contribution. The staff also analyzed the option of a system change, towards 4-2-3-1, with Man on the right, Mihăila on the left and Mitriță behind the top. But what viable options do you have for the two closers? And where does captain Nicolae Stanciu play then? In addition, system change, from the first action, would have come with its risks. Therefore, the Mitrita midfielder scenario was abandoned.

Theoretically, on a difficult ground and with an opponent who we know how much challenges you physically, like Kosovo, starting Florinel Coman would be indicated, in theory. Then, you can surprise along the way by Mihăilă’s speed and penetrating power, depending on the evolution of the score. At home, with Lithuania, all the data of the problem would lead you to the tenure of Mihăilă. If a player in shape in Serie A is not a starter for the national team… And then, what do you do with Mitriță?”, said the source ProSport.
