Former midfielderSpartacus » Denis Boyarintsev in an interview with , he said that he did not see the backbone of the Russian “red-white” team ready to fight for the championship.
– From the Russian backbone, who from Spartak is ready to be part of the future champion team?
– I’m going to be banal, but I only see (George) jikia bye. He can train it, you can definitely bet on him. But he is alone and there should be 3-4 such players. Maybe someone will add to it, mature and prove themselves, we’ll see.
But, for example, I don’t see any leader in the attack. Yes (Alexander) Sobolev yes, something can, but there is no stability that we would like, so he doesn’t even always play in the first team.
For now, I don’t see if this team will fight for the championship. Well, it’s very difficult. Although there is progress – they took (Anton) Zinkovsky . Great transfer! It’s very good that such players appear, we have to look for more. It is clear that it is difficult to compete with Zenit financially, but you can find interesting young people. The acquisition of Zinkovsky inspires hope in Spartak’s attack.
– The departure of (Zelimkhan) Bakaev is a puncture?
– He is a good football player, but again – there is no stability. Even if we look at his performance in terms of “goal + assist” (0+6 in 26 RPL games), and he is an attacking player. At the same time, he has good speed, a good left leg, but I think it will be difficult for him at Zenit. There is strong competition. I’m afraid he will have even less playing time than at Spartak. Therefore, I wouldn’t call it a big loss for Spartak. He’s not a bad player, but you can find a replacement without any problems,” Boyarintsev said.
