Former CSKA football player Evgeny Aldonin believes that the Moscow club does not have the depth of its roster that is necessary to fight for victory in the RPL WORLD.
On Sunday, CSKA beat Paris NN Nizhny Novgorod at home (3:2) in the match of the 14th round of the WORLD RPL. The army team is third in the standings with 24 points.
— If we talk about changes in the scheme from Fedotov during the game, then I can say that the coaching staff knows better how his team should play. The team can rebuild, change its tactics, this is a big plus, but it’s hard to say that the army team is shining now. Very hard, strong-willed victories are achieved, but this is also a big deal. In part, the team is on the move, but everything is very difficult, there are no simple games. Each match has its own drama.
Yes, CSKA is now in third place, but there is a lot of density in the standings. For now the team is in good shape. It cannot be said that the army team is in the championship race, but they need to keep up and get all the possible points. Yes, the gap from Krasnodar and Zenit is eight to ten points, but everyone is losing the necessary points. In the next round, Krasnodar will play against Zenit, so they will lose all points. Even outsiders cling to leaders. Therefore, we cannot lag behind.
It is possible and necessary to fight Krasnodar and the St. Petersburg team. The extent of this struggle will be determined by the championship and the availability of healthy players. Because CSKA does not have much depth in its squad and this plays a role. In the same draw game with Spartak, the players came on as substitutes, but did not strengthen the game, but somewhat weakened it. Therefore, it is necessary that qualified football players sit on the bench, who can strengthen the game and improve. Although in the game against PARIS NN the restructuring of the formation and substitutions played a positive role. But these components still need to be improved,” Metaratings.ru quotes Aldonin.
