Former head coach of the Russian national team Stanislav Cherchesov Today, the head of the Kazakhstan national team, assessed in an interview with the changes that have taken place in the top Russian clubs and identified Zenit’s competitors in the fight for the championship in the new season.
— Have Zenit’s competitors become more experienced last year in terms of fighting for the championship?
— Look, Spartak and CSKA have new coaches. In Krasnodar, the season starts with the old and new main, who came in the last championship. Maybe something will be rebuilt as it pleases. Lokomotiv has the same coach, but there are a lot of defeats. And the Gluchenkovs do not lie on the street. And to replace such a player, you need to either rebuild the team’s game system or do something else. Dynamo has no newcomers yet, except for the former Zenit player Lunev. And at CSKA – Circular. Krasnodar will not have Safonov, although Agkatsev is a good goalkeeper and has already proven his worth, but Safonov was still the main one. And this is also a loss that simply cannot be compensated.
At Zenit, there is still everyone, as far as I understand. A plus for Pedro this year is that he will become more mature in his passport and, hopefully, in his game. Besides, last season, no matter what match he played, he left his mark. This means that there is a chance that he will break out. Overall, from the point of view of Zenit’s competitors, everything will be the same, more or less. But in general, now I am more interested in Kazakh football and I can mix things up (smiles), Cherchesov told .
