The Russian tactician believes that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alan-Dzagoev-c4249 and Keisuke Honda are recovering from respective injuries and welcomed Igor Akinfeev back to first team action.
There’s little arguing that CSKA Moscow had a terrible start to third Russian Premier League round after losing key players to injuries. A number of absences have restricted them from extending their decent domestic run during
the round. They have claimed just 7 points in 6 outings.
However, the Koni head coach, Leonid Slutsky, is optimistic about his team’s injury worries easing, as they enter the final phase of the ongoing League campaign.
Slutsky has expressed his delight after admitting that the Red-blue’s first team goalkeeper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Igor-Akinfeev-c16676, is in contention to play in the upcoming league tie against Zenit St. Petersburg at Petrovsky stadium.
"Akinfeev has fully recovered from the severe injury. I think he is ready to play at the highest level, not only for the club but also for the national team. But it’s up to the national team coach to give him a place in the national
team of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Russia-c2991.” The former Uralan Elista manager was quoted as saying.
The Russian Cup winner revealed that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Keisuke-Honda-c20516 is in contention to return to first team action as well. However, he ruled out Alan Dzagoev for the rest of the season.
Dzagoev sustained a muscle injury while playing against Lokomotiv Moscow last month, while Honda fractured his knee during the third league round tie against Dynamo Moscow.
“Honda is working on an individual program. His injury was, unfortunately, more serious than we thought originally. Keisuke is a true professional and he has done everything possible to get back after his operation. With Dzagoev,
the situation is more complicated.” Slutsky concluded.
Commenting on Viktor Vasin’s performances, Slutsky revealed that the former Spartak Nalchik player is doing a good http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 with the reserve team.
Slutsky reflected on CSKA’s chances of reclaiming the league title this season. He admitted that the upcoming match against Zenit is extremely important and assured the fans that they will fight till the end of the ongoing Russian
championship.
