- They say that training for the football player is the worst time of the year. Have you already felt this?
- So far we are not very stressed. But still not involved. Every day, two workouts: one in the morning, then a break, and the second - up to seven hours. After dinner, the sauna, and the result is a maximum of three hours free time.
“Have you already made sorties into the city?”
- I don’t feel like it yet. We are not bored at the hotel either. Why go on an adventure right away?
“And who is your roommate?”
- Kovalchuk.
- Do not miss the four walls?
- Last night, after the victory over Baku Inter, we gathered in Bystrov’s room and organized the NHL 2006 tournament on the Xbox console. This, you know, is such a console with four joysticks. They began to play in pairs for different national teams.
- And what team did you get into?
- Fedya Kudryashov and I were trusted with Russia with the double player. And in the end, we only lost in the final. First, the Czechs were kicked, played by Kalinichenko and Bazhenov ...
- It’s strange that it’s not Kovacs with Jiranek.
- Kovacs at the console is more able to football. And without him, Martin refused to defend the honor of his homeland.
- Good, and then?
- In the semifinals, we made the Canadians, who were led by Torbinsky and Boyar. And in the final, Jiranek and Bystrov, we were swept by the Swedes.
- And what are you planning today?
- I'll watch a movie. As early as the first night, I looked at the upcoming dream DVD with the film "Lafayette Squadron." Or maybe I’ll talk with our fitness instructor Galina. She lives on our floor.
“You played only half yesterday.” Didn’t play enough, probably?
“I say: I have not yet drawn myself in.” He threw all his strength into the first half, to which I was released. And then he sat for a long time in the sauna, came to himself. In short, while it’s hard.
- Gedera and Mozart were sent to double. They say in punishment for being late for the collection.
- And they also say that they had problems with visas. They are still training in doubles today. When they return to the base - it is unknown. They were told why they were put in a double. I think they are not worried. After all, the double and the base are training side by side. If they sent me there for being late, I would not be offended.
- At this gathering, a man from the time of Nevio Skala, Romanian Florin Shoave, returned to the team. What are his prospects?
- We are old friends with him, since the time of the Italian coach. I even once visited his birthday. And about the future in Spartak, Florin himself is in ignorance. He wants to stay, but he was returned from the lease for actually viewing. It may well be again banished somewhere. And he is ready for it.
- I read on the club site that after the arrival of the team at the training camp in Belek, it suddenly got colder.
- Yes, it's still cold. Plus 12 for Turkey is generally "dubar". Constantly cold wind. We warm only in the game.
