He has told FC Dynamo Kyiv official web site about work under the charge of Oleh Blokhin.
- In what mood did you return to Dynamo-2 after the training camp with the main squad?
- I returned in good mood. It was a great experience for me. Actually the head coach didn’t tell me about aspects of my play I should improve. Now I work with Dynamo-2. Maybe in summer I’ll go to the training camp with the main squad again.
- Which training match was the most memorable for you?
- When you feature for the main squad in any game you experience a lot of emotions. As we faced Marbella FC I didn’t manage to cope with them and got the red card. I’ve already analyzed this situation.
I guess my first match was the most important one, though I played only for 30 minutes.
- Your competitor for starting spot was Danilo Silva. Was it useful to work alongside such experienced player?
- There are many high profile performers in the first team, but I don’t think that our players are worse. They just need more trust.
- What can you say about you physical conditions?
- It’s difficult to estimate at once. I think all performers are in good conditions. We’ll get ready properly for the start of the second part of current season.
- They were speaking a lot about Dynamo lack of good left back. In summer the White-Blues signed a new performer for big money, but eventually ex-Dynamo-2 defender Yevhen Makarenko got the regular starting spot. Does his example inspire you?
- Sure! Yevhen is a good friend of mine. He has proved that our performers also can demonstrate very good play.
- Dynamo players are in good books in Ukraine U-21. Why is it so difficult for them to get a regular starting spot in their club?
- I guess they rely on signed performers as a lot of money is being paid for them. Young player can approve himself featuring on loan for another team.
- Will you keep featuring for Dynamo-2 or maybe you have other variants?
- Some variants are possible. I want to feature on higher level.
- Are you talking about Ukrainian Premier League or foreign leagues?
- There’s nothing specific to discuss right now. At the moment my aim is to help Dynamo-2 to secure the place in Ukrainian First League.
- How long will your contract with Dynamo be valid?
- It will be valid till June of 2014.
- You’ve got up an appetite for big football, but now you are to make one step back. Doesn’t it make you lose you heart?
- It doesn’t. It must become a motivation for a player. You’ll achieve your aim if you work hard.
