Shakhtar midfielder Georgi Sudakov commented on the appointment of Mariano Pusic as the new coach, referring to the former Shakhtar head coach Patrick van Leeuwen.
"The emotions from the new coach are positive, everyone was impressed. He is a good and positive person. From the ideas he gave us in 15 minutes, we understood his style of football. We understood more in 15 minutes than in 3 months before.
I hope that we have a very good path ahead of us. We believe in it. The players have full confidence in the new coach. I hope we will succeed with him," Sudakov said at a press conference ahead of the Champions League match against Barcelona.
