“He was the only one on the shortlist!” President of “Torpedo” – about replacing Ignashevich with Borodyuk

Football

After the 25th round, “Torpedo” was in second place in the FNL. Then the team began a sharp decline – six matches without victories (5 defeats and 1 draw). As a result, Avtozavodtsy dropped to sixth place. Probable leaving Ignashevich discussed in recent weeks, and on Monday it was officially announced. Today it became known that the new coach was Alexander Borodyuk. We turned for a comment to the president of “Torpedo” Denis Maslov, and this is how he explained the permutations:

– First of all, I would like to express my deep gratitude for the joint work with Sergei. It was a completely new experience for me, because he is a coach of a new formation. Previously, I worked with specialists from another warehouse. Sergey is different, and I really enjoyed interacting with him. I thank him for everything. It was clear to me where he was going, but, as it seems to us, as of today it was necessary to stop. It seems to me that Sergei will have a great future, which I sincerely wish him.

– When and how did you tell him about the dismissal?
– We had a good conversation after the match with Nizhny Novgorod. Absolutely calm dialogue, everything was clear almost without words. We parted positively.

– Is it true that Ignashevich submitted his resignation even before that?
– No.

– What do you associate such a drop in results after the winter break?
– Those who watched football understand that an attacking game has turned out with Khabarovsk. Everyone saw her. Well, the judge did not put a penalty in our favor, it happens. We didn’t even pay attention to it. We ended in a draw, but we saw that the game was given. The Seagull was also all right. Themselves missed at the last minute – our defenders watched a movie instead of football. They yawned, conceded, but there were no particular fears about the game itself. It gets worse. It seemed to us that the game was not quite intelligible with Enisey and completely disastrous with Nizhny Novgorod. It is better to ask the coaching staff what is the reason. Still, the headquarters was preparing the team. From the side of the club, everything seems to have been done. And the training camp, and the transfer of matches to Spartak, and selection … It happens so in football that the opponent is stronger. We hope this downturn is temporary.

– How much did the fans’ discontent influence on Ignashevich’s dismissal?
– Look, the fans themselves were influenced by the result. The fans are looking at the scoreboard, they are worried and count on a different score. Naturally, the fans have accumulated dissatisfaction. I understand this quite humanly. On the other hand, by the texture, by the way they expressed dissatisfaction, I don’t understand here. This method of expressing emotions is unacceptable to me. This should not be the case in a civilized society. We need to be in open dialogue and discuss constructively, not express emotions in this way. I think that it did not particularly affect our decision on Ignashevich.

– Can you guess why Ignashevich thanked not you for the work, but the other leaders of Torpedo?
– Honestly, I don’t use social media much. I have been leaving them for a long time, I have a closed account, and I was not subscribed to Sergey Nikolaevich. They just told me later. I think his logic was that he thanked those people who hired him. I came when he was already leading the team. I don’t think there is more to it. Don’t look for a black cat in a dark room if it’s not there.

As a result, they parted by mutual agreement of the parties.

– Why did you choose Borodyuk?
– We all know that Torpedo is a special club. It has its own aura, its own atmosphere, its own traditions. We felt that today we lack a person who would carry all this in himself. Associated with traditions. The best solution was to invite Alexander Genrikhovich. We met last night, talked and decided everything, and today we presented it.

– How did you understand why Borodyuk didn’t work out lately?
– We talked about the reasons, he told how and what happened. This did not bother us at all. Each coach has a different career stage. Somewhere ups, somewhere downs, somewhere misunderstandings. It was important to hear and understand. We had no doubts on this score. The main thing is that it seems to us that it is the necessary key that will solve the assigned tasks. We have the rest. Alexander Genrikhovich is the element that will make the gears turn.

– How much did the insiders get when talking about Torpedo’s interest in Evseev, Kononov, Shalimov and others?
– It’s easy to be an insider. You just look at all the free top trainers on the market and list them. We didn’t interview anyone else. We spoke to only one person.

– That is, Borodyuk was the first in the shortlist?
– He was the only one.

– Why is the contract with him calculated only for a little over a year?
– We are in no hurry, we go gradually. We need to understand what we can do right now and what we can do next season. We talked warmly enough with the new coach. I think that we will not have problems in labor relations.

– Is the task for the coach going to the RPL?
– This task is facing the whole club, and Alexander Genrikhovich leads the main team. He will guide this task.

– Someone will remain from the headquarters of Ignashevich? Whom will Borodyuk bring with him?
– It’s better to ask a new coach. Here we will rely on his opinion.
