He’s got only one goal to his name so far (against FC Aktobe), but don’t be critical towards him.
Scoring is not his main task in Dynamo.
- Jeremain, have you already adapted to Kyiv?
- Yes, I have. My apartment is located in the heart of the city. I know where one can have dinner etc.
- Dynamo experience difficulties at the moment? Do you feel any pressure?
- Pressure always exists if you play for such teams as Dynamo or PSV. Every defeat is a blow to our image. One must be able to take the heat. Fortunately we start improving our play, but it’s too early to relax.
- Can you compare Dynamo and PSV play?
- These are good teams, which perform in euro cups. Position in tournament bracket is temporary.
- Are Oleh Blokhin’s tactical schemes comfortable for you?
- I can play both as left and right winger. Still in PVS I could concentrate only on attack and in Dynamo I must also play for defense.
- Is there a great difference between Oleh Blokhin and Dick Advocaat?
- It’s difficult to answer this question. We don’t speak the same language with Blokhin.
- Which stadium do you like more: Philips Stadion or NSC Olimpiyskyi?
- Olimpiyskyi is a very impressive arena. Besides there’s a good acoustics here. Dynamo fans support the team very loud. The better support is, the more motivation it gives!
- Do you keep studying Russian language together with Mbokani?
- We have a very tight schedule, so there’s little time for lessons. But we study diligently. By the way, Belhanda and Tremoulinas have joined us.
- Who is your best friend in Dynamo?
- There’s no true friendship yet, but I communicate with Haruna very often as we both speak English.
- What can you tell about Ukrainian Premier League?
- I’ve noticed that all teams try to demonstrate their best qualities as they face Dynamo Kyiv, but in following games they can play worse.
- You are 25. Was financial well-being the main reason for your transfer to Dynamo?
- No, it wasn’t! First of all I care about my football image. I signed a contract with Dynamo to enjoy the game?
- How long are you going to stay in Kyiv?
- It’s not a secret that my dream is to play in England or in Germany. Maybe after the World Cup I’ll get new transfer offers.
