Former Poltava Vorskla midfielder Ivan Krivosheenko reacted to a high-profile statement by Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Georgiy Sudakov, who said that he learnt more in 15 minutes of communication with the team's new head coach Marino Pusich than he did in 3 months of work with the previous mentor Patrick van Leeuwen.
"Now I am a coach and I want to say that it is bad when players decide the fate of the team's mentor. As I see it, Sudakov is a good guy, and a great player, but you have to understand what you are saying. For me, van Leeuwen is a great specialist, but he did not find contact with the guys. I think that Sudakov's words are said on emotions, no more," SportArena quoted Krivosheenko as saying.
