Shakhtar goalkeeper Andriy Pyatov spoke about his goals and plans for a year and spoke about the new coaching staff of the club.

Today, June 28, the Pitmen’s legend celebrates his 41st birthday.

“I am used to the fact that I have almost all my birthdays with a football family. I am very glad that I am here in Shakhtar’s club is a big family, my big heart. So I am glad that I continue to work, give something to our young promising goal.

Goals and plans for this year? The main thing is that the team won – we always have only such goals. In miners, it is like DNA – only victories. Therefore, I understand that I must do everything that depends on our goalkeeper keeps the high level that the club has been holding the last 15-20 years.

Did any of the players or coaches say something fun, greeting? But, of course, there is no humor in football, so the boys, though young, can also be squeezed somewhere. Today they had a very good tube job, and I thank the main coach and the whole staff for the following gift for me: I stood and watched the boys were running, and I did nothing.

New coaching staff? Each coach is an individual, and his headquarters is, as they say, his strength. I respect every coach I worked with. And now it is very easy, I can say so, I entered this coaching staff: they respect me that it is nice, and I respect everyone – from the head coach and to every assistant. And my colleague, the coach of the goalkeepers of the emars, we have learned well with him, and most importantly, we have similar ideas. It is easier to enter the team when there is one common idea, a common direction – and we, the goalkeeper coaches, are very similar to work.

Basic requirements of Turan? As for the main thing, he needs a drive. As they say, football is alive, and here you need to choose your confidence and personality on every centimeter, to show that it is my area. And the coach wants to convey to the players: what they should die for their favorite business on the field. Nowadays, there are players who believe that they have nothing to do, but only play football, but football is such that if you do not show strength, you do not demonstrate the desire to achieve something, then you will not win high places.

How do I want to see the team in the season? Hungry. Hungry to the trophies, before his game, to victories. Because Shakhtar has always been such a victory machine, we dominated and dominated in the last 15-20 years, but you see what happened: third place is an indicator. So we have to think and be hungry again to win, so that it does not happen.

The most cherished desire? I thought a lot about it today, but I realized that we all have one desire is peace. And I would like to thank those guys who protect us and allow us to believe in the future and believe that we and our children will be able to celebrate birthdays. Including many of those who are now at zero, so they have a low bow to our defenders and thank them, ” – quotes the official official website of the Donetsk.
