Sochi head coach Vadim Garanin spoke about his relationship with the team’s midfielder Christian Noboa.
– When there was a grinding period and Chris came to the team a little later, there must have been a little tense relationship. Not with me with him or with him with me, but within the team. But now we see Christian, who is one of the best players in the league. For the RPL, this is a player of a cosmic level of performance and understanding of the game. How can you say that a football player doesn’t like something?
– He said: “Why should I stay in Sochi if I don’t go out.”
– Footballers are always, probably, a little less self-critical than coaches. He was officially recognized as the best player of the season, and then Garanin comes in, who does not put him on. For Chris, it was a stressful situation. But now we see him, he is almost 100 percent ready. This is power, strength and intelligence,” Garanin told RB Sport.
Noboa has made 9 appearances in all competitions this season, scoring 7 goals and making one assist.
