“Food is more delicious when you want is so much and is brought. If you try it before, maybe it cannot be as delicious. So we shall do our best to prepare very delicious food from the point of performance and results.”

The Bucs supporters will get a chance to see what Sredojevic and his technical team have been “cooking” when they take on Highlands Park in their opening league fixture at the Orlando Stadium next week Saturday.
