Valery Masalitin, former football player of CSKA Moscow and Spartak, told socialbites.ca that while sharing his thoughts on the championship race in the Russian Premier League (RPL), he also analyzed the positional problems of the army club that prevented the team from entering the championship race. results.
“You see, there are such situations… For example, how they played with Zenit in the Super Cup. The game was in sight, lots were drawn and the men played behind. They had the strongest defense of the championship pre-season. If there was no injury [Игоря] Diveeva, then it would have continued well. And what does it affect, so to speak … Maybe, if there are such problems in the defense, maybe it was necessary to change the scheme, play four defenders so that they do not have a free zone from behind, so that there is no running at all. Maybe we can play with one striker.
This is still not a location. [Федора] Chalov plays in the middle to the left or just below the winger. We are used to Chalov playing up front and helping the club as much as possible. return [Иван] Oblyakov was again placed in the left-hand trouble spot and scratched the pavement until he could create something. He was commissioned last year to play as a right centre-back and has put himself at the maximum level, giving CSKA maximum benefit. This is his position and Davila has been invited here. It’s not open at all. He revealed and dismissed the national team player Oblyakov, who claimed to be the best player in CSKA, a foreigner was taken here. Honestly, it raises questions. There is no situation where the coaches are to blame, the team is to blame, or anything else. There is no such thing, there are a number of problems to be solved. Today we see that the team is not in very good shape. Will CSKA be able to win the championship in the future? We see that everyone is losing points. All the qualifying teams have already lost points. There is no clear leader,” said Masalitin.
CSKA drew 1-1 away with Orenburg in the sixth round of the Russian Premier League (RPL). In the previous round, the army team also lost 1:2 away to Dinamo. The team is fifth in the standings with 10 points.
