During the winter break, a lot of guys left us - six players, and we didn't take anyone except Ocheretko, and then at the very last moment. We had a transfer ban, it was all very difficult and we realised that we would not be able to win the championship with 13 players. So the latest results (Dnipro-1 drew for the third match in a row - ed. note) were natural, this is my opinion. Not even 20 players play football," Maksymov's words were quoted by Dnipro-1's official website.
