Igor Tsyganik: "Those Shakhtar players who have been signed as 70-million-dollar superstars must be put in their place"

Famous commentator Igor Tsyganik expressed his opinion on Marino Pushic's work at Shakhtar.

"I have my own opinion about Shakhtar. Last season, I was hated a lot, people showed me shirts and told me stories. When the players start telling us what kind of coach they have, that there will be no prospects, it's wrong. It had to be cut to the root. Otherwise, you can't catch these players and they will continue to manipulate. Last fall, I believe, Pushic played exclusively on Van Leeuwen's baggage. Absolutely!

The level of physical fitness that Van Leeuwen laid down, Pušić simply used. The team was ready for the Champions League. Now I have the impression that those players who were signed as 70 million dollar superstars need to be put in their place. I'm telling you frankly: Shakhtar's players have been playing the fool in recent matches and someone is allowing them to do so. If we don't take care of ourselves now, there will be problems," the Sport Arena telegram channel quoted Tsyhanyk as saying.
