Former Russian national team head coach Anatoly Byshovets said that Zenit St. Petersburg player Alexander Sobolev has self-confidence problems “Euro-Football.Ru”.
Byshovets said that in order for Sobolev to be in good shape, he needs to prepare himself when the decision to transfer from Spartak Moscow to Zenit is made.
“I think it’s all about his self-confidence. He should reconsider his vision in football. What did they say before? “Love football within yourself, not in football yourself,” Byshovets said.
Sobolev, who was transferred from Spartak to Zenit at the end of the transfer window, made his debut in the official match for the Russian champions against CSKA in Moscow in the eighth round of the Russian Premier League (1-0). The forward was included in the starting 11 and played an hour on the field but did not make any impact. Zenit are leaders in the Russian Premier League with 20 points after eight matches played. Spartak are in fifth place, five points behind.
