“CSKA has a problem only with the left flank” – Masalitin

Former CSKA football player Valery Masalitin noted that the “red-blues” have a balanced squad, but they have problems with the quality of players on the left flank.

— Yes, CSKA did not work at the end of the transfer window. But Wellington was rejected for medical reasons; there is information that there is a problem with his knees. Well, why take on an injured player? Maybe it would make sense to arrange a rental to watch it. Anything can happen, we need to remember the same Garrincha, maybe he has had this problem since birth.

If we really wanted to, we probably could have agreed on a lease. As it is, I don’t see any point in getting stronger. There are only problems on the left flank. Agapov could have been placed there, and he and Moises would have replaced each other. But Fedotov simply puts Gayich there, who is invisible there.

Fedotov stuck with his formation of five defenders, which he doesn’t know at all. And when the players drop out, he doesn’t know what to do. Play with the same tactics that you used in Orenburg, in Sochi, and you will succeed.

And so the composition is more or less, we just need to use the players in their positions. He showed himself well, why didn’t he appear on the field? Put Agapov as a central defender, so they bought him in vain? And Moises on the left lateral, because that’s his place. And then everything would work normally. The skill of a coach lies in placing the players correctly on the field,” Metaratings.ru quotes Masalitin as saying.
