Ukrainian midfielder Artem Favorov has expressed his opinion on Argentine specialist Dario Drudi, who has become acting sporting director of Polissia. Drudi once worked as Zorya's acting head coach in the 2016/2017 season, having led the team from Kropyvnytskyi in ten matches (three wins, one draw and four defeats). It was there that 's Artem Favorov met him.
- What kind of coach was Drudi?
- Well, he was like this(sighs - note "UV"). We didn't get on with him from the start. Let's be honest, he's not a coach. We trained with him for two hours without any sense, then I worked on the floor or in the gym to catch up with the load. He did what he wanted - he invited some players from France and Portugal.
- Were there any decent legionnaires or were there any left-wingers?
- There were no leftists, but I can't say that they helped in any way. They probably thought that they would invite two hundred legionnaires and sell at least a few of them later. But there was frankly no one to sell.
- Was there anyone from the category of "especially foreign passengers"?
- There was the Spaniard Aitor in the centre of the pitch. We called him "The Surfer". He had a pigtail and looked like he had come from a surfing competition. Max Kovalev called him that. He was not a football player at all. He came from the Spanish second league and thought everything would be easy.
