– “Vityaz” from year to year seeks and finds strong legionnaires. But your defender Jeremy Roy has been a real discovery of the season. How would you rate it?
– He helped the team very well in the regular season, he was one of our leaders. Roy’s stats speak for themselves. The club have an agreement with him and for next season Jeremy is staying at Vityaz.
– We know that Roy in December wanted to pick up other clubs. In past seasons, Vityaz has already experienced the fact that top players have been taken away from him in the middle of the championship. How did you manage to save the team from being torn apart?
— We didn’t set ourselves the task of raising the level of players to sell them later. Vityaz was in the playoff zone, everyone saw that the team was playing well. It is already the merit of the management to have succeeded in saving the composition. As a coach, I have little to do with it,” Butsaev told .
Vityaz ended the season losing to Lokomotiv in the Gagarin Cup first round – 1-4 in the series.
