Robert Beric: «Happy to see the team progress»

Even if he scored three times since his return to the team, the Slovene striker is just getting started. The Verts’ number 27 admits to feeling reborn after a complicated interlude in Anderlecht.
 
Did your quick stay in Anderlecht leave you with regrets?
I went to Anderlecht to play. The club quickly changed the coach, the situation changed as well. I didn’t play a lot and, above all, I never understood why. It was difficult. Difficult to not be playing and to not know why I wasn’t being given the opportunity to play. If I had had the opportunity to play and had not performed well, I would have understood why I was staying on the substitute’s bench. In retrospect, those are four months wasted. I quickly decided to come back to Saint-Etienne.
 
Did you find the club to have changed upon your arrival in Saint-Etienne, during the winter transfer window?
For me, nothing has changed. The day after my return to the team we left for Spain. I could tell that things had been complicated recently but, in Spain, for the New Year, everyone came back with a new energy, a positive energy. During our stay in Spain, I felt that our dynamic was different, that there was something new.
 
New players, such as yourself, arrived last month...
It’s always good to see international players join your team. But, back in the day, there were good elements to this team. We just have to find the way to work together, exactly how we used to do.
 
Have the three goals you scored since your return accelerated your reintegration?
I feel like I’m at 100%, without any discomfort or injury. Physically, I have no pain. I no longer think about my serious injury, I feel no apprehension either. Of course, it’s important to score, especially after the time I spent in Anderlecht. But, I’m still more happy to see the team progress, to get better and better on the field.
 
As it happens, your last goal allowed the team to stop OM in their tracks...
For us, it was very important to not loose this match, against an adversary of this caliber. It was good motivation for the team. We delivered an excellent performance during a very important match.
