When one of the most titled Russian coaches returned to Lokomotiv in May, the team was the eighth in the championship. Today Lokomotiv is one of contenders for the bronze medals.
"The most important thing is that we began understanding each other much better", said Yuriy Semin to Sport Express. "Players got used to the coach’s requirements and it will help us work fruitfully in future".
"With the help of Italian specialist Vincenzo Pincolini and Oleg Pashinin players gained very good physical conditions. Players are also eager to win and they know how to do it".
"Situation when Lokomotiv, was far behind the leaders in the first half of the championship, didn’t satisfy us. Everybody understands that we represent powerful corporation and should make progress all the time".
"We needed to play only for victory in all games and take the risk. And we often conceded the opponents’ attacks. But in general our defence looks very well".
"I congratulate Peter Odemwingie as his national team got to the 2010 World Cup. It’s a great achievement of the striker, who is one of the leaders in his national team".
"Our selection plans will be clearer closer to the announcement of the new club’s budget. Now it’s evident that there is no sense in keeping experienced players, who don’t get enough practice".
"For example, Durica is a member of the Slovak national team, but we have three strong central defenders and he can’t compete with them for a place in the lineup. And he is absolutely right when he says that he is not satisfied with this fact".
"I hope that Lokomotiv will bring up new football talents. For example we have young Gatagov, but everything depends only on himself".
