- After the drawing you said you chances to reach the next stage are 50/50. Do you think this has changed, considering Dynamo lineup issues?
- It’s still hard to say. The game lasts 90 minutes and the situation on the field can change. I think chances are equal.
- Are Stengs and Idrissi ready to play?
- Both have come to Kyiv, but we’ll decide later whether they’ll play.
- Does the team demonstrate progress after pre-season period?
- I feel the progress although we haven’t had a lot of training sessions yet. Youth team players join us and I’m satisfied with the training process.
- Why isn’t Hakon Evjen on players’ list?
- We have skillful players, who do better job at the moment and can replace him. There must be positive competition inside the team.
- What are the strengths of your team?
- We attack pretty well as we have creative performers. We can dominate throughout the game, but we know Dynamo have really good counterattacks. So, we need to find certain balance.
- Can you compare Ukrainian and Dutch league? Which one is better?
- It’s hard to say as I don’t follow Ukrainian league. We’ve faced only one Ukrainian side – FC Mariupol, but that’s not enough to make conclusions. I know there’re good teams in Ukrainian league, such as Dynamo and Shakhtar, who usually fight for the title. Two years ago Dynamo opposed Ajax and one of those games ended in a draw. But today Dynamo are different.
