Valery Karpin sums up Spartak Moscow performance and reveals transfer plans: Russian Premier League
Spartak Moscow head coach has spoken on the Myaso performance in the Russian Premier League and has highlighted that the Red-Whites need to work harder in order to claim a decent spot on the league table.
With only four league games left to play in the season, Karpin has urged his team to win the remaining matches of the season. Spartak are currently at the fifth spot on the league table and trail the league leaders, Zenit St. Petersburg, by seven points.
In their latest league tie, Spartak drew 2-2 against Zenit, and Karpin has hailed the Myaso effort to score a late equalizer during the game. The Red-white defender, Nicolas Pareja, was sent off in the first half of the match. Karpin revealed that it was
always going to be difficult coping without the Argentine national.
Spartak striker Welliton has just returned after a six-match ban imposed by the Russian Football Union (RFU), having been penalized for a horror tackle he made on CSKA Moscow goalkeeper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Igor-Akinfeev-c16676.
“In the last five games, we have not played with the same composition. Now we have another headache to replace Pareja, we really have to work harder.” The former Real Sociedad player was quoted as saying.
Karpin went on to deny that Spartak players, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Artem-Dzyuba-c6682, are for sale and insisted that the Russian club have denied any approaches from Wolfsburg to sign their leading goalscorer.
“Dzyuba now is getting used to the league and no player in the world can play at the same level for a long time. We are not going to sell Dzyuba and Welliton. We do not want to sell our prized assets to Wolfsburg.” The Intertoto Cup winner concluded.
Karpin admitted that he would love to sign http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roman-Pavlyuchenko-c31639 from the English Premier League club, Tottenham Hotspurs.
The Russian tactician is of the view that Spartak Moscow deserve a decent spot on the league table and urged his side for an attacking display, when they take on Rubin Kazan in the upcoming league fixture.
