- We had a theoretical class before the training session where we analyzed our last game against Metalist Kharkiv. All guys are upset as they didn’t manage to win. In the first half three of four players didn’t demonstrate their best play. Set pieces are still a problem for us. We have three more matches. The atmosphere in the team is fine but everyone is a bit depressed.
- Why didn’t three of four players demonstrate the game you expected to see?
- We still lack stability. Maybe that’s because of our players’ young age. The team can’t start winning every game at once. Sometimes one should make one step back to make two steps forward later. It is a difficult process. One can’t create a team within two months. We must move on.
- Are there any chances to finish second this season?
- There are three more games and we are to win each of them. And after that we’ll count points.
- Did you feel the problem with strikers as Dynamo faced Metalist?
- We miss a lot goal-scoring opportunities…It makes things complicated for us.
- Was Dudu’s appearance a risk or he was ready to play?
- We followed him during training sessions and he played well. But it has turned out that he wasn’t ready to take the field against Metalist. It was my mistake in some way.
- What can you tell about FC Illichivets Mariupol?
- We’ll analyze their play later. I think there are talented young players in this team. Their aim is to qualify to Europa League.
- Does Olexandr Aliyev have a chance to take the field against Illichivets taking into account that Roman Bezus and Denys Harmash have picked up injuries?
- We’ll solve this problem right before the game.
- What are your plans for the transfer campaign?
- I’m 100 per cent sure that the team should be enforced. But at the moment I can’t state anything particular. As for Internet rumors – they are not true.
