Such events have led to Ghaly earning a bad boy reputation
but he stressed that this is far from being true:
"I'm a quiet person, he added. "It's not my character
to be aggressive or difficult. I hope on the field I can be
aggressive and work hard and make the manager satisfied he
has made a good decision."
Ghaly understands the difficult situation of Derby in the
table and adds that this was due to lack of confidence and
harmony between the new players as well.
"Derby have good players and just need to play with
more confidence. We need more time together - it was difficult
having four or five new players coming in together - to get
more understanding."
On his new teammate at the heart of midfield, Robbie Savage,
Ghaly said:
"He's a good lad and a good player, he has spent many
years in the Premier League. He's very nice on the field and
has tried to help me. I can learn from him."
The Egyptian also cleared some things regarding his move
to Birmingham which was cancelled in the last minute:
“I didn’t complain about the training in Birmingham.
I was surprised when I heard that I had refused to run. That
is wrong. When someone asks me to run, I run.
“But you know when you go to a place and you feel uncomfortable.
It was like this for me and I told my agent that I did not
feel comfortable. It was nothing to do with the training ground
or the manager — it was just not right.”
It should be noted that Ghaly's Derby will play away from
home on Saturday versus Portsmouth and the Egyptian is expected
to start in the game.
