SEASON 1996/97 - ANTWERP - SWOS 96/97

Belgium Premier Division - 16th
I start my carrer in Belgium outsaider Antwerp. The goal is to keep them in the decent table position. It's hard to play with them even though I make some transfers, the team can only compete with few others in the league. I try as hard as it is possible but after 30 games of the season I am facing the fact of being sacked.

Belgium Cup - Quater Final
I win first two rounds, and lose 4:1 with Lokeren in Quater Final.

SEASON 1997/98 - AEK LARNACA SWOS 96/97

Cyprus Premier Division - 4th place
After a season of ups and downs AEK Laranca managed to grab 4th place in the end. APOEL Nicosia surely was the strongest team in the league but fight for the second place was quite even. If we had more luck in the end of season we might took it.

Cyprus Cup - Quater Final
Not much to say. Bad performance in both legs of the Quater Final and after extra time we lost with the local rivals ALKI Larnaca.

UEFA Cup - 1st Round
Banik Ostrava was reachable, we played fair game but luck was with our rivals this time. We draw at home 1:1 and lost 1:2 in Ostrava after two close games

SEASON 1998/1999 AEK LARNAKA SWOS 96/97

Cyprus Premier Division - 7th Place
After a good start the team loses the tempo and can't find it until the end of the season, finishing 7th in the league wich is a big dissapointment.

Again it's Quater Final, begining and the end of our Cup adventure.

SEASON 1999/00 - AEK LARNAKA SWOS 96/97

Cyprus Premier Division - WINNER
Finally after 3 years of work in AEK Larnaka I managed to lead the team to League Glory. Good season with a few ups and downs but basicly situation was under control all the time balancing between first and second place and winning the league thanks to the last game victory against Olympiakos.
