Under Starkov, you held the position of sports director ...
I was responsible for the breeding work. For example, I opened Quincy. I saw him at the World Youth Championship last year and advised him to buy it.
That is, you did not participate in the training process?
Not. This was not my position by post.
Spartak boss Leonid Fedun believes that the coach is only 10% success. Do you agree with him?
This was said in order to emphasize the importance of players in the success of the team. Personally, I believe that the coach’s achievements in success are greater. Even if the team has all the high-class players, they also need to be correctly placed on the field, prepared - only then they will win. The coach is responsible for the team’s game before the management. For poor results, the coach is fired, and the players remain.
Do not you think that the game with the “walls” and short programs that you put in Spartak is a stone age?
Who told you that? Have you watched the Champions League final? Is nobody playing a short pass there? Barcelona so scored two of their goals. Spartak plays attacking football, and here you can’t do without short passes and short runs. The Stone Age considers such a game ignorant people. So half of Europe plays.
In an interview you said that there are too many good players at Spartak. Is a long bench bad?
This is the main problem of Spartak today. Now the main team has 26 players, each of which can be included in the starting lineup. Only 18 players can be included in the application. We have several times not included in the application team players - Dedura and Yenchi. This is a more serious problem than the fact that young people from the double do not enter the application. Dear players, they move to Spartak to play in the main team, and when this does not happen, they are offended.
But what about the opportunity to vary the composition?
This is another question. We have the wrong bench. I hope that by the fall other players will sit on it. Among the substitutes there should be a goalkeeper, two young double players and football players, who for various reasons at the given moment do not pass to the base - due to poor results in training or physical condition. But even their presence in stock should be temporary. As for the young, the player must clearly see his perspective. Starkov and Skala paid almost no attention to youth.
Which of the "bench" you put on the transfer?
I will not name names. But I’ll say for sure that these players will go to good clubs - we will take care of their employment.
Previously, in “Spartak” was a “council of players”, which included Titov, Kovalevsky, Alenichev, Parfyonov, Kovtun ...
I don’t know, I haven’t heard anything about any advice. Think for yourself - why is it needed? Players should play and complete the tasks of the coach, and not confer.
Is defense the weakest line of Spartak? Does she need a boost before the Champions League?
Why is it weak? It seems to me that our defenders play great. We plan to buy only the central defender before the League. Everyone else is fine with me. We have a lot more problems with the attack. This is a strong line, but we have too many forwards. How many forwards in Spartak, you know?
It seems five ...
Right, five. And under Starkov, he played alone this season. And the other four then what to do? Is it normal? So we will give everyone a chance, and sell the extra ones.
