Journalist: "Markevich has experience, luck and the ability to unite the players"

Journalist Volodymyr Kobelkov expressed his opinion on who could become the new head coach of the Ukrainian national team.

“In fact, he lost only two matches, but he didn’t complete the task, he himself thought about it yesterday. If you change it, then who should you install anyway? We heard the numbers that Petrakov receives in the national team (about 10 thousand euros per month, - approx.), For a country in which there is a war, someone might think that this is a lot. But we understand in football that this is very little.

I see only one person who can replace Petrakov, if we discard all the talk and scandals - this is Miron Markevich. If you remove all the dirt that was between Markevich and the UAF in the press.

It seems to me that the Ukrainian national team should be coached by a Ukrainian, especially now. Perhaps at another time I would have said about a foreigner, but not now.

If we are talking about replacing Petrakov, this is only Markevich. Experience and most importantly, that he knows how to work with the national team. Markevich knows how to unite guys with one thought in ten days. This is the maximum that the national team coach has in his reserve. Well, and his luck, which the coach should have, ”said Kobelkov.
