- What can you tell about the Joint tournament? Is it unusual to get ready for the next season in Kyiv?
- It’s really unusual, but I like it. The idea of this tournament is unique in some way. I thin spectators enjoy it. They can follow the pre-season preparation of our team. As for me, I like the Joint tournament and I wish it were annual.
- Ukrainian teams look better than Russian at this tournament. What are the reasons for that?
- This tournament is friendly, so one shouldn’t concentrate on the score. Of course it’s a pleasure to win, but first of all we must prepare for the next season with a help of this competition.
- Have you already got acquainted with newcomers? What can you tell about their adaptation?
- Sure, we have got acquainted. As far as I know Mbokani speaks only French. It’s easier to communicate with Lens as he knows English.
- Why didn’t you take the field as Dynamo faced Zenit St. Petersburg in the second game of the Joint tournament?
- After the first game against Spartak Moscow I had a sprain so I needed several days for recovery.
- What are your impressions of the second game against Zenit?
- It was a good game, though we made some mistakes which must be analyzed. I think spectators enjoyed the match.
- Are Dynamo able to win the Ukrainian Premier League and to demonstrate a good play in Europa League this season?
- I think this season we’ll really go after Premiership. We also would like to achieve something in euro cups. We owe our fans very much, so we’ll try to win every competition we’ll participate in.
