Head coach of Zenit St. Petersburg Sergei Semak said there were no plans at the moment to organise a meeting between the fans and the striker Alexandra Soboleva .
Sobolev moved to “Zenith” during the summer transfer window of Spartak Moscow and has already participated in two official matches of the St. Petersburg team.
– The fans do not accept Sobolev – everyone heard chants against him during the match against Rubin. Maybe organize a fan meeting with Sobolev with your participation?
— Today, such ideas do not exist. Many players of some teams are not liked by fans – this is their attitude towards this or that player. As for Sasha, he is part of our team – all the players are for him, and he is for everyone. He is ready to do everything for the team to achieve results. I am sure that Sasha will help us.
— How is Sobolev’s adaptation process going?
— His pass (in the last Russian Cup match against Rubin Kazan) determined the course of the match. He understood it absolutely. The goal scored is 90% of his success. The quality we appreciate in Sasha is that we do not have other players who can turn around with a player on his back and make a beautiful pass. He can help and score. The only thing missing is the tone of the game. He will earn it by playing minutes. He always helps our team. Today, we are completely satisfied with his performance, “the correspondent reports, quoting Semak.
The Zenit – Fakel match will take place in St. Petersburg at the Gazprom Arena on September 21, starting at 16:30 (Moscow time). Semak’s team is in the first line of the standings with 20 points.
