- Leuven took over the team after a successful league season and a decent performance in the European competitions, so the bar of expectations was already raised high. Any coach needs time. Leuven only started working with Shakhtar in the summer, which is not enough time for the players to get used to the new philosophy and methods of team management. I think Patrick should be given time at least until the end of the first part of the championship, then we can draw conclusions," FootBoom quotes Kovalets as saying.
