Cooler than Lucescu and Mancini. Bubnov named the best coaches of the year in Russia
Sportbox.ru expert singled out three strongest specialists.
Sportbox.ru permanent expert Alexander Bubnov has compiled a mini-rating of the three strongest Russian coaches in 2022.
3rd place: Vladimir Fedotov
The head coach of CSKA achieved his goals with different teams. He squeezed the maximum out of the teams. Both with Orenburg and Sochi, the specialist showed excellent results, without having top players at his disposal. It is no coincidence that the choice of the leaders of CSKA for the candidacy of Fedotov. Vladimir now has to solve serious problems.
The Red-Blues have more opportunities than the same Sochi. At first, the army team got off to a good start. It seemed that they would be able to compete with Zenit. But closer to winter, the team slowed down a bit.
It will be difficult for Fedotov to lead CSKA to the championship, but the Moscow team will definitely compete for medals. It will be interesting to follow his progress.
2nd place: Valery Karpin
The head coach of “Rostov” can not yet boast of big titles. He won practically nothing. High-profile successes can only be attributed to the medals won with Spartak at the dawn of a coaching career. But the work of Valery in Rostov can be highly appreciated.
Both visits of the specialist to the camp of the Rostov team turned out to be excellent. Karpin gave the team a good game, despite the club’s modest financial resources. Third place in the RPL before the winter break is a result worthy of respect.
At the same time, you need to understand that Karpin manages almost without foreign players in the squad. Recently, the Rostov team has 11 Russian football players on the field. Now Valery has everything to lead a big club.
1st place: Sergey Semak
The head coach of Zenit, being a football player, has achieved significant results by Russian standards, having won many prestigious trophies. Now Semak is confidently moving in the same direction as a coach.
Many specialists before Sergey could not achieve significant results with the club from St. Petersburg. Semak already has four championships in a row. Now he is making a confident entry to the fifth title. The results of the work are impressive. The same Lucescu and Mancini, with the huge potential of Zenit and the experience of coaching, could not even come close to Semak in terms of the quality of the results.
