- Your team defended pretty well, but didn’t attack that way…
- That’s because we opposed very good team. We tried to apply pressure and demonstrate our play, but we had problems with the first pass. We had to be faster to act more effectively. This is top level football.
- Are you glad or upset about this draw?
- Of course I’m upset. Players did their best to succeed, but they haven’t. We all aimed for victory.
- What can you say about Napoli?
- I think they should be higher in the Serie A table. I’m sure they’ll change the situation for better soon.
- What are positive aspects of Dynamo Champions League campaign?
- First of all I’d like to mention youngsters, who’ve deserved starting spots and gained Champions League experience. I’m sure they have future just like Dynamo U-19, who’ve defeated Napoli coevals 2:0 and won the group.
I’m glad we have young players, who can replace main squad performers. I hope we’ll keep making headway and rejuvenating the team.
- Do you know names of players, who’ll leave Dynamo in winter?
- Not yet, bit it’s a really important issue we must deal with. That’s all in players’ hands.I’ll be happy to work with motivated performers. We have five more games this year. After that we’ll make some decisions together with president of the club.
- How will Dynamo oppose Besiktas considering that this game doesn’t matter to Dynamo?
- Position in standings doesn’t matter in this competition. It’s all about reputation of the club and country. I’m sure our players will aim for victory against Besiktas. I hope fans will come to support us.
- Do you already know what the foundation of new team will look like?
- I don’t have claims to players’ dedication in the Champions League, but I have claims to some performers’ dedication in domestic league. We should already focus on the game against FC Volyn Lutsk. Next season we must lay foundation of the team including youngsters.
