Former Dynamo coach Oleksandr Hatskevych has criticised Mircea Lucescu's work at the Kiev club.
Aleksandr Hatkevich"Mircea Lucescu will always remain Shakhtar's coach for me. No matter what anyone says, he won everything he could in Ukraine in his first year. But the teacher came when the class was packed. When Shakhtar began to rebuild. Moraes, Marlos, Taison, Pyatov, Ismaily, Stepanenko injured, the young lads left. "Dynamo was not put together by Lucescu at the time. I put this team together, then Mykhailchenko. Zabarny was added.
No players appeared under Lucescu. Nobody. It was a well-knit team. Maybe I will be harsh, but over the past two years the team has made no progress. Out of 30 Champions League points. Remember what rhetoric was - the first Champions League, we have a young team, now we`ll beat ourselves there, kovid, empty stands, next year, God willing, we`ll get to the Champions League. Yes, we`ve got to the leagues for the second year. How many points have you got? In the first one, we got 4 points - we`ve beat Ferencvaros and had a draw. Then the second one was two draws with Benfica. 6 points from 30 in the LF. And again: "We have a young team, rebuilding.
Lucescu talks beautifully, everything is great. Then the Europa League - the team do not even make it out of the group. And again they say that the team is young, rebuilding for the third year. He says that he lost 11 players. I can say that when I was the head coach, we were one or two points short of Shakhtar. And we did not play a single match against Mariupol. It is not my fault that we did not play. We should have become champions then. But we didn't play, we lost by one or two points to Shakhtar.
The second year we had a real restructuring. Koval, Morozyuk, Khacheridi, Vida, Antunes, Rybalka, Gonzalez, Yarmolenko, Mbokani, Moraes, Kravets - here you have 11 players. And these are the men who have won championships. And Lucescu names 11 players who have left him. Who left him?
He is an experienced coach, he won championships, cups and European Cups. But to tell it so beautifully, the way he presents it, and it is all "swallowed". I do not see any progress in Dynamo over the last two years just in terms of the game", - Khatskevich said in an interview with Sport Arena TV.
