Football!

I agree. As Mikhail Sergeevich would say, it's high time to start.
Those who watched the match on TV could see Kobyelyov's reaction (you could read a clear "strong" word on his lips) to Kerzhakov's очередной miss at the beginning of the second half. The camera caught it perfectly. It's incredibly difficult, if not impossible, for the head coach to react differently to the failure to convert almost 100% chances, especially in such an important match.

No, it's not all that bad. He's working. At the very least, he's drawing defenders away. And, in general, out of all the chances he missed yesterday, he created some of them himself.
He's not a lone wolf. He's used to working in pairs. Once he gets used to his partners, his scoring rate might improve. For now, there are no complaints about his speed and technique, only that his aim is off.:smile05:

And I also want to recall one story. Last summer, during the transfer window, Genkov was bought and registered. Kobyelyov justified his choice by saying that he had been watching the top scorer of the Bulgarian championship for a long time. And what awaited us, the fans? The "top scorer" didn't score a single goal for us. In general, they gave up on him, concluding that our scouting department is useless. Although Kobyelyov constantly said in interviews that Genkov would start scoring, that he scores in training, that he is adapting to the new team and the new league. Who believed all this?..
So, at the moment, Genkov is the second-highest scorer in the league. And although it's difficult to draw far-reaching conclusions after 5 games, everyone sees a change in his game. He's playing well. He's playing well in every sense - he's a gem.:smile12:
What's my point? That today, Kobyelyov is using the same words to justify Kerzhakov. And Kerzhakov, meanwhile, is showing even better play than Genkov did last season. So...I believe.:smile20: Why not? ANK knows best.:smile13:
