Sergei Vedeneyev believes that the Moscow-based club have re-established their attack following the departure of Vagner Love and has urged them to win against Volga Novgorod
CSKA Moscow finished at the third spot on the Russian Premier League table last term despite retaining the top-spot for much of the last season.
The Moscow-based club failed to meet fans' expectations after failing to win the league title and gave them further disappointment by losing out in the race to secure Champions League football.
However, the Armeytsy managed to secure UEFA Europa League berth despite a series of unsatisfactory results in the last round of the Russian championship after the departure of their ultimate goal machine, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vagner-c35793 Love.
The Brazilian striker, who was the Russian outfit’s top scorer last season, returned to his native land earlier this year after joining Brazilian giants, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Flamengo-c39361, during the winter transfer window.
Sergei Vedeneyev has admitted that the departure of their prolific striker heavily affected the team’s moral and was a major turning point in destabilizing the team’s mentality offensively.
However, the Russian national insisted that CSKA have now recovered from the partial loss, saying that the Russian outfit have started to play better football after http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Keisuke-Honda-c20516 and Mark Gonzales took the responsibility
on their shoulders.
“CSKA has always been strong offensively. The have recovered after partying company with Love pretty confidently. Dzagoev, Honda and Gonzalez are doing great http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 offensively. I think if the Brazilian striker will ever return to
the Russian outfit, he will only strengthen the side as he is indispensible player.” The 1984 Russian Championship winner was quoted as saying.
Vedeneyev went on to blame the Moscow-based club on making defensive mistakes in recent games. The Russian national urged them to work on their defence if they are to claim a decent spot at the end of the ongoing season.
As things stand, CSKA are at the 2nd spot on the league table and will now play their upcoming league tie against Volga Nizhny Novgorod on Saturday. The 55-year-old believes that the Armeytsy can win the corresponding fixture on
the away turf.
