Torpedo announced the appointment of a 45-year-old Spanish specialist as head coach on March 28. Earlier this season, Torpedo was coached by Alexander Borodyuk, Nikolay Savichev and Andrey Talalaev.
– Torpedo is an unstable project. Didn’t that scare you?
— I have never been afraid of new projects in football. Forgive me if I do not know the whole history of the club to the end. I talked a lot with the management, the president of the club. The whole project is focused on the long term. Ideas attracted me greatly, and I was not afraid of anything. I am not afraid of new challenges. The past is important for a better understanding of the present. We are future oriented.
– Are you capable of doing a miracle – leaving Torpedo in the RPL?
– It is difficult to answer your question so directly, I intend to complete the tasks step by step. Players have to work hard to prove. Now I am focused to start winning and go forward. Headquarters, management, coaches are waiting for the support of the fans.
My philosophy is high-speed football, a quick transition from defense to attack. All my teams practice dynamic football, I will implement this in Torpedo. Football is a long-term development, I came at the height of the season. My task is to unite the team around me, to unite. We must be competitive. Now we are focused on Rostov to take three points there. I saw Rostov’s penalty statistics, they are of great importance, they affect the result. And “Torpedo” lost the first match with Rostov due to penalties. Rostov is an attacking team, they are technically strong, they penetrate the penalty area a lot. I hope that the players will also take into account how we lost in the last game, – quotes Clotet “Match TV”.
Torpedo is in last place in the WORLD RPL table with 10 points. In the next round of the Russian Championship, Torpedo will meet Rostov on the road on April 2.

The scorer of the brace against Chelsea is an Aston Villa player. Ollie Watkins appointed head coach of the team Unai Emery tactical genius. Watkins’ comment is quoted by the BBC in reference to Sky Sports.
The meeting of the 18th round of the English championship between Aston Villa and Chelsea from London ended with a strong victory for the Birmingham team with a score of 2:1.
“He changed tactics because Chelsea played man-marking, but he had an extra central defender when we played long balls. When I came on in the second half, he put Jadon Sancho and Morgan Rodgers on the wing and put Youri Tielemans in the No. 10 position, so we had an extra player. He’s a tactical genius,” Watkins said.
“Amazing victory. For me personally, to go on the pitch and score two goals is a fantastic feeling, but to continue that streak and come here to such a difficult place and beat Chelsea is just incredible,” he added.
