Balakhnin advised how Galaktionov should behave with Dziuba

The head coach of Lokomotiv Mikhail Galaktionov needs to understand that forward Artem Dzyuba will be a good helper if he plays, otherwise he can be harmful to the team, the former coach of the Russian national team Sergey Balakhnin told Sport Day after Day.

According to Match TV, Dziuba successfully passed a medical examination before signing a contract with Lokomotiv. The agreement with the player will be signed on Wednesday.

– Dzyuba will now help any team. Although I am sure that Lokomotiv will not fly out.

– Can head coach Mikhail Galaktionov have problems if he puts Artem on the bench?

– Yes. Knowing Dzyuba, if you take him, you should clearly understand that if he plays, he will be a very good helper, and if he doesn’t play, he will even be harmful to the team.

– In that case, how should Galaktionov behave with Dzyuba?

– Galaktionov must clearly understand that if he now takes Dzyuba, then, of course, he will have to be put.

Galaktionov needs to behave calmly, there is no need to invent anything. Dziuba will be an assistant if he is motivated and plays. This is not the question. Dzyuba’s problem is not how he trains or how he behaves. He is the perfect player if he is motivated.

The second question is, we do not know in what functional state it is. I understand that he is prepared individually, but this is all applied. When in a team playing practice is a completely different preparation.
