The former head coach of “Spartacus” Valery Karpin, peeking metropolitan derby with “Dynamo” in the 19th round of the Premier League, shared his impressions of what he saw and evaluated the prospects of red and white youth.
– What brings to the capital? And for how long?
– Somewhere in the week. Come on business, are completely unrelated to football.
– What, then, brings you on Saturday at the stadium in Cherkizovo?
– Went look first at the “Arsenal” – had not seen this team in action. “Loco” -That very familiar to me – as a player and coach.
– you are one of the club’s management Tula invited?
– No . Wanted – and went to the match.
– Now, many have expressed the view that “Arsenal” – a discount on the same level – in style reminiscent of “Spartacus” 90. Share this view?
– make global conclusions on one game, in my opinion, is incorrect. And if we consider the particular Saturday’s meeting, I can not say that the actions of Tula was something just a Spartak. Yes – try, yes – sometimes things work, but … I repeat: this football match “Arsenal” Spartak will not name. Perhaps in other matches it’s different.
– With Dmitry Alenichev communicated after the final whistle?
– No, I left a few minutes before the end of .
– However, your appearance in Cherkizovo immediately generated a wave of calls, they say, everything is clear: Karpin will now take “Arsenal” and Alenichev leave in “Spartacus.” What do you think?
– Nonsense. What is already on the football just can not go? And if I went on a Sunday in Tushino? Then, it means that either the “Spartacus” back or “Dinamo” accept?
– I think that’s how most and would regard.
– That’s really really – the land is rife with rumors. Precisely in order to avoid misunderstandings on the derby and did not go. In short, no subtext – the coaches are constantly appearing on the matches, there’s nothing out of the ordinary. And let the people are not looking for a black cat in a dark room – it’s not there.
– possible. But last week, Olga Smorodskaya said: “I do not exclude that someday will be our head coach Karpin.” Met with the president of “Loco»?
– Yes, I did. But nothing of the sort discussed. We have with Olga long established good relationship, so just talked a little bit. If one were to meet face to face, you would have done it in another place and another time – as has happened when I worked in “Spartacus».
– you basically interesting lead a command such as “Lokomotiv»?
– provoking? There is a coach who works well. So – no comment.
– Derby in Tushino watched on TV?
– Yes. Good football. “Spartacus” liked – the team looked quite lively, played with humor. Especially in the first half, although scored after the break. Tactics with five defenders? Nothing special here do not see – Yakin often uses three central in games against strong opponents.
– The fact is that too big contrast between these fights. On the whole, “Spartacus” and in this season, and in several previous acts unstable. What is the reason? And if treated?
– I think that the problem is mainly connected with the players – in the end, they go on the field. Heard before, and now I hear: “The coach must configure the players receiving a lot of money to fight.” It sounds absurd. How many times have talked about this, and after six months of “Mallorca” was finally convinced: this is our purely Russian “know-how”. In Spain, the players are also sometimes suffer from a lack of motivation – but in a meeting of twenty! There’s environment itself – the same fans, the press – does not give people fall below certain level. Impossible to relax.
– If we compare the metropolitan derby matches with examples and Segundo solely in terms of the quality of football?
– Immediately, I note that the duel of “Spartacus “with” Dinamo “is very different from the game” Loco “with” Arsenal “. It is clear that in the first case we are talking about fundamental rivalry that rivals are approximately equal. So the level of performers in the game Tooshino higher than in the second Spanish league. But at the same rate it much higher – as in the second division in England or Germany, for example. Yes, there is often the skill is not enough, but the movement of self-giving and thence give our team a head start. And for example, and can not speak.
– How do you like 19-year-old striker Davydov, who is already praying fans of “Spartacus»?
– Good impression produced. But for me it is not a mystery – in due time and in duplicate watched him, and charges Denis went with us. It is clear that we must continue to grow and grow. In any case, it all depends on him. And against Dynamo, I repeat, the guy look good.
– Do Davydova chance to eventually become red and white is the same figure as Rodionov or Shmarov?
– Of course there is. But this opportunity is available to everyone – the main thing is how a person will go. These Davidov is? There Is. Much to be a star of the past? Now no one will say.
– Especially before the eyes of Alexander Kozlov example, perhaps the most talented player of his generation, which can not be revealed.
– Compare the children is not easy. Davydov something better, something worse – for example, it does not have such an explosive rate, but there are other advantages. They are similar in talent, but what happens at the output – the question.
– Lucas Barrios went back in the fall and winter “Spartacus” broke up with Tino Costa, Bokketti, Shirokov, Yakovlev. Would be useful to these players now?
– I will express personal opinion. I’m sorry, that “Spartacus” owns the rights to such class players (which not only the football would strengthen, but also were able to give a command character) – and does not use them in the case. Represent three Glushakov – Tino Costa – wide in midfield – and my heart bleeds, that such a combination is not possible at the moment. But, I repeat, this is my personal view, and each coach is his.
– What are your plans? Is there any employment options?
– Not yet. Soon going to return to Spain, in addition to work, there are other concerns – family, children. As for the resumption of a career coach … The people of our profession to the labor exchange do not stand up: there will be suggestions – will be considered.
