“Spartak general director Malyshev organized a meeting between Abaskal and Dzhikia at these training camps. He himself was also present and was surprised that this meeting was the first between coach and player. The conversation was serious and detailed. Both sides heard a lot of new things. Everyone expressed their thoughts on the situation.
Why doesn’t Abaskal see Dzhikia in the lineup? He emphasizes physical activity, believing that Georgy does not run much. However, Jikia has always been more of a cerebral defender than a runner. He plays with his mind, not his speed. I think in this regard Jikia is superior to its competitors. I don’t want to criticize other players, but I have my own opinion. I am confident that we will cope with this situation, even if it is a new experience for us,” Shpinev shared in an interview with the “Championship” correspondent.
