Igor Cherevchenko: ‘I have no issues with the guys’

Lokomotiv manager Igor Cherevchenko has given his evaluation to the game against Qarabag (2:2) during the training camp in Austria.

- You saw for yourself the weather conditions that we were in, although they were equal for both teams. There were many passing mistakes and very difficult movement. But on the whole I’m satisfied - the guys went for it in every episode.

- The fans note that the tempo was higher in the past game.

- The weather is an important factor. Plus the guys have accumulated weariness they have to so to say digest. The cycle is short but we still have time. We’ll correct what is needed and be in good form by the SuperCup contest.

- Why did Fernandes get substituted so early?

- He has some muscle problems. We didn’t want to register him for the game but he insisted he wanted to play. So the substitution was a precautionary step.

- Samedov wasn’t registered this time.

- Sasha has a minor problem. The doctors recommended him to miss the game.

- How did you like Boussoufa today?

- Mbark tried to direct play forward. I have no issues either with him, nor with the other guys.
