Former defender of several RPL clubs Ruslan Nakhushev spoke about his attitude towards the head coach of Zenit Sergei Semak .
— You arrived at CSKA very young. And they talked a lot about Semak. His role at this time is described by the expression “captains are not made, but born”?
— I agree with these comments. They are born with them. This must be due to character: such qualities can be developed, but not acquired. Today Sergei Bogdanovich is a coach, but back then Sam was a human being and a great player. I came from Nalchik when I was 17 and saw all these people on television. In addition to Sam – Varlamov, Kornaukhov, Gusev, Shemba. When he arrived, Semak introduced himself as a captain and we got to know each other. I told him: “Seryozha, I know you. And I know who you are. And my name is Ruslan. A real captain who can be reached for any questions. Both in football and in life. Everything was easy with him. And it’s still a landmark.
— Do you like his work as a coach? After all, there is a well-established opinion that the Brazilians are trailing Zenit.
– You know, they all have to be united. And find an approach for them. Before the Brazilians, he achieved a very strong Ufa without the Brazilians and strong Russian players. He was an assistant with the national team, with Spalletti and Villas-Boas. It was clear he would be a good coach. I had to find my team. In six years, how many changes have there been in the team? Among the players, the management. But Zenit remains at the top. With Ufa, he would not have become champion. But for the RPL, he is a high-level coach. I would like to see him again at European Cup level. However, this is not yet possible,” Nakhushev said, as quoted by RB Sport.
