Head coach of Dynamo Moscow Valery Karpin answered journalists’ questions after the match with Sochi (3:2).
— The squad has changed a lot compared to the match against Rostov. Are you satisfied with the performance of young football players?
— Taking into account such a composition, the game was good. And considering our defensive line with (debutant) Balakhonov and Alexandrov, who is not a defender at all, can be said to be wonderful. If we remove youth football from our young players, it will be more or less okay. For now they're playing it.
— Are you satisfied with Bakhtiyor Zainutdinov's debut?
— He's not in shape yet, that's why he went out for 15 minutes. He still has to get better. As well as Sergeev, who does it during his playing minutes and the training process. He is gradually starting to find a playing form – if the game against Baltika was completely past him, then with Rostov and today it was already close to what it should be.
— When to expect Konstantin Tyukavin to return?
— When he was injured, the recovery period was immediately set at six months. If you count six months, it turns out September. We hope that this will happen within the specified time frame.
— What is the condition of Roberto Fernandez? Why wasn't Diego Laxalt in the squad? When to expect Milan Majstorovic?
— Today there was no Maouhoub either. All the guys have minor injuries, except Majstorovic. We hope that Roberto will start working in the main group in a week. Majstorovic won't be back soon.
