Last week, Notts County secured the services of Lewis Macari on a permanent basis, marking a significant move for the talented player.
In an interview that goes beyond the exclusivity tag, Macari candidly shares his thoughts on the challenges he faced initially, the unforgettable debut goal, and the decision to commit to the club permanently.
Looking back at his early days with the team, Macari admits to the struggle of adapting to a new playing style. "It was a new way of playing for me, and the gaffer has his own brilliant style. It took me a little while to get used to it, but since then, it's been a lot better, and I'm really happy with how things have gone."
The defender, known for his enthusiasm, talks about the nerves and excitement surrounding his league debut, especially scoring a goal on that occasion. Macari describes the feeling as "unbelievable" and expresses a keen desire to recreate similar magic in future games.
When discussing the uniqueness of his debut goal, Macari acknowledges the rarity of attempting a first-time shot from outside the box. "I just thought, 'Hit it as hard as I can and as sweet as I can,' and it just rose into the net. I still can't believe it to this day, but hopefully, I can try and do it again."
Touching on the intensity of Notts County's playing style, Macari shares that it took some time to adjust to the quick pace and high pressure. However, he emphasises his enjoyment of the style, stating, "We want to blow the opposition away, and that's something I've had to get used to. But I really enjoy it, and I think I've got used to it now."
In discussing his decision to make the loan move permanent, Macari reveals his early enthusiasm for the club, even during periods when he wasn't in the squad. "I just can't wait to play," he says. After getting his chance, Macari felt "properly a part of the team" and expressed his commitment to helping the club progress, stating, "I want to be the one to help take it up."
As the conversation unfolds, Macari reflects on the learning curve of playing regular league matches. He highlights the importance of adapting to different playing styles and pitches, citing the valuable lessons he has picked up from the coaching staff.
In conclusion, Macari expresses his eagerness to continue improving and contributing to Notts County's success. With the permanent deal finalised before Christmas, he emphasises the relief of having the uncertainty behind him and the focus shifting entirely to football.
Lewis Macari's journey at Notts County reflects his determination, adaptability, and passion for the game. He looks forward to making significant strides in men's senior football, leaving an indelible mark on the team's journey.
