In an interview with Sport Arena TV, former Dynamo head coach Oleksii Mykhailichenko spoke about his time working with Gerson Rodriguez.
Alexey Mikhailichenko- One of the most popular sports videos on YouTube is the one where Zherson does not restrain his emotions and shouts during the match against Shakhtar. Do you remember it?
- I didn't see that during the game. Everyone should do their job. If he came here to us, earns our money, lives in our country, sits in the reserves, and still talks something...
- Why was he shouting?
- I don't know why Gerson came here at all. I'll be honest. I don't know why he was shouting. If I had seen it then, I would have immediately kicked him off the bench. The team must be as one. If you have questions for someone, they should be resolved in private. You don't need to show it.
Well, maybe in his country it's done differently. Luxembourg, or... I think he's from Luxembourg. Gerson is hot-tempered, but not very smart.
- How did the situation end? Did you talk to him afterwards?
- If I'm not mistaken, the president made a decision and there was a punishment. And after a while, he left.
- Did this act affect his career?
- I don't know, I don't follow him. His career was influenced by his behaviour on the field and his game. When he could not come to training because he spent the whole night at the club - this is his line of behaviour. Even our guys see that it shouldn't be like that, the team doesn't accept him anymore.
- Were you upset that the video got online?
- It was unpleasant. I understand that it is impossible to hide anything now.
