What was written newspapers? Boris Mayorov and “Sovsport” talk about the causes of the disastrous series of UCC Moscow “Dinamo”, recalls the achievements of Russian players in the NBA, and “Sports Day by Day” satisfied editorial debate on the subject of the present and future Maxim Kanunnikov ….

“Soviet Sport” and Boris Mayorov of the problems of “Dynamo”:

1. Moscow “Dynamo” suffered for ten (!!!) consecutive defeats. Who to blame for the team in the tournament was well, and what to do to get out of it?

Frankly, last year, looking at the team Oleg Znarok, I saw her upstart, which is about to put in place. But in the final of the championship, especially in the playoffs, it was impressed by the game! Many experts agree that simply had not seen hockey players acting HC MVD, and now they have opened up …

summer team changed its name to a much more solid – the Moscow “Dynamo”, which is used to see among the leaders. And at first, the former “police” he was fully in line – surely defeated rivals. Dynamo then began to stumble. And then suddenly collapsed.

In my mind, everything turned upside down again. Thoughts returned again a year ago that the team did not shine Znarok. Links to the injury is not entirely convincing. Dynamo have a long bench. And those who are out to replace, as good as retired. Loss now can be considered, perhaps, only a lack of defenders Solovyov and Novak .

from the game “Dynamo” disappeared zest that distinguish them from their rivals at the beginning of the championship. In blue and white was clearly built tactical system, where everyone knew their place. It was built on a solid defense, sharp counterattack and effective implementation of the majority. Now you do not understand what tactics professes Znarok.

In Sunday's match

with “Spartacus” Dynamo drastically changed in each period! First dissolved in a viscous defense of “Spartacus.” Then seized the initiative, spent much time in another zone, but the result is not achieved. And in the end of the match showed increased aggression, almost hatred of “Spartacus.” The team rushed forward unchecked, forgetting about the defense. In the third period, the red and white could not throw a puck, and much more.

Why this change? Rival was treated differently! We must adjust to battle in every match. I do not think that the newbies “Dynamo” something radically change. On Sunday I watched the eminent Slovak Reel . Yes, a good pass, if possible shots on goal, the positional error striker did well … but the puck did not ran, in a strange area no one has beaten. As the Dynamo are going to emerge from the crisis, I can not imagine. And it really is too delayed.

2. In the coming year, “Spartacus,” directed by Andrei Yakovenko, general manager of combining work with coaching, scored for five victories in six games! In coaching workshop KHL surprise, a new bright figure?

Yakovenko this season, led the “Spartacus” in 16 matches. And at 11 wins. It is better winning percentage in the CHL only new head coach, “Locomotive” Vladimir Vuyteka.

This

say that red and white is all right, too early. Take, for example fines – Spartacus by their number second only to the “Knight”! This suggests that the fielders do not often fail in their duties.

Plus Yakovenko that he forced the team to play on hockey strict rules. For example, before cake , or should not be permanently connected to the attack and found himself in other people's doors. But on Sunday in a match with “Dinamo”, he rarely called in for someone else's blue line. So, he was called to order. And it provides a result. Now Spartak coaching staff goes to the victories of the old simple truths – a game of defense and labor discipline. Partly for that reason and Hasek started playing much more confidently. It looks great.

So what can be considered a good coach who gives the result. That's just to establish themselves in this role, you must go with the team to a longer distance. It is desirable, not even one season. I'm not sure that most Yakovenko you wish. I have heard that “Spartacus” is now looking for a new eminent coach.

3. CSKA Moscow for the season seems lost – to get into the playoffs CSKA will need a miracle. What conclusions should make the leaders of the club, that failure does not happen in the next season?

I was watching a recent match against CSKA in Petrograd … Sad sight! Muscovites have not seen in the leaders. No masters, around which to build the game. This is a disaster for any team! We must look for them, but it's not so easy. They are concentrated in our clubs, the oligarchs.

CSKA Moscow should decide what ways to get out of difficult situations. Now the club just awesome staff turnover. What is the strategy guide? There are two main ways – either to invite players to experience, or to rely on their students. Something specific I have of soldiers can not see. Like a lot of players invited to the summer. And now, on the contrary, they purged. Well parted Mikhailov . But how could sever the contract with Korneev , which largely kept the defense? Or a world champion, received a standing invitation to the Russian national team, it no longer matches CSKA? I have not heard an answer to this question either from the head coach of CSKA Moscow by Sergei Nemchinov , or from the club's president Vyacheslav Fetisov. to return to the elite, think about the strategy to have now ..

4. Until the end of the regular season still over a month, and all potential participants in the Gagarin Cup, seems to have already decided. Or one of the outsiders will be able to break into the cup round at the finish?

in the West are fighting for three seats, four teams – the inhabitants of Riga, Minsk residents, torpedovtsy and “Spartacus.” Red and white favorites here, but the citizens of Minsk and Riga Nizhny Novgorod still can get, considering that they spent on four games less than the same Belarusians. Although a “Torpedo” task is not hopeless and if, then arhitrudnaya.

I think it's better defined and eight in the East. How would “Tractor” or puffed – up to the playoffs he could not reach. For this we must win almost all matches. And no surprise here, I do not see. Rather, it would be surprising if Chelyabinsk, “Cupid,” “The Forge” or “Motorist” made their way to the Gagarin Cup. The only sensation in the conference was a successful performance freshman CHL – “Ugra”.

5. With respect to one of the leaders of “Severstal” criminal case. Presumably the general manager of the club Dmitri Popov is accused that he took the money in young players for getting into the first team. How to deal with “kickbacks” in our hockey?

All evil comes from the agents! As soon as they appeared, disappeared purity relations between clubs and players. Leverage to extract their own profit, the agent is sufficient. A moderate appetite difficult! Here and there, every dirt, including a criminal one. How else to explain that a person caught red-handed with labeled cuts?

“Saga of Carmelo” in the pages of “Sport-Express” writes Anton Solomin.

past week to the representatives of Russia in the NBA was formed in different ways. If Andrei Kirilenko and his “Utah” scored two wins out of two possible (with an average performance of our forwards 14.5 points per game), then Tim Brain of “New York” all three games entirely spent on the bench and missed the opportunity to mix with AK-47 in the internal opposition on January 12 in Salt Lake City. In general, central Russian national team played in the last month for “Nix” just 15 minutes. Finally, another Russian, the owner of “New Jersey” Mikhail Prokhorov, while trying unsuccessfully to get a stellar trio of Carmelo Anthony – Chauncey Billups – Richard Hamilton.

history with the exchange of Anthony in “Nets” is becoming a multi-part saga. First superforvard “Denver” said he did not want to play, “New Jersey”. Then allegedly agreed on the condition that together with him and exchanged Billups. Further guidance “Nuggets” threatened Prokhorov and Co., that if they do not stop the press to dismiss the rumors of the inevitable transition to Anthony, “New Jersey”, that will give a “New York”. And on Sunday he had already the 15th issue of “Denver,” said the team will stay in until at least late this week, that is, until January 23. “I'm not going to negotiate with any” New Jersey “or the” New York “or the” Lakers “or the” Dallas “with anyone else. Let my club is doing,” – said Anthony.

seems a little bit more – and this saga will outshine the soap opera of the summer 2010 with the passage of LeBron James 'Cleveland' in “Miami.” Only now, Anthony, with all due respect to him, on a scale not like James. So whether you need it, “Nets” to give worth it for the sake of a good half staff? Well if “New Jersey” just get rid of the veterans. So in fact there is: a team willing to give Prokhorov one of the most promising newcomers of the season Derrick Feyvorsa and choice in the first round two future draft. But Billups and Hamilton, whose “New Jersey” may receive in return a “kit” with Anthony – great players, but expensive and with aging. It turns out that “the Nets' bets on fast results rather than long-term perspective.

One of the biggest disappointments of the week – “Miami.” Until recently, the team from Florida led the league standings, but now lost James injured his ankle, and suffered three defeats in a row. Including the new season of vague “Clippers.” The latter, led by Blake Griffin, finally gave a good amount of time – four wins in five matches, including Sunday's match with the “Lakers.” However, for 4 seconds before the end of the game when the outcome was already clear, for some reason Griffin grappled with in the selection of Lamar Odom. To aid the striker “Lakers” immediately rushed to Ron Artest (which is not surprising, given his past drachunsko-deboshirskoe), Griffin has stood behind Baron Davis and … While the brawl in the end still not broke, judges, consultation, delete to the end of the match all four.

These deletions were the only ones in the past weekend. On Saturday, the forward of “Dallas” Dirk Nowitzki, just returned to action after injury, has received two consecutive technical fouls for talking with the judges during a meeting with “Memphis” and was also sent to the locker room. Texas A club, in the absence of their leader lost 7 games out of nine, suffered another defeat, the worst showing in addition the impact of the season – 70:89.

highly popular St. Pete fans Maxim Kanunnikov failed to gain a foothold in the basic structure of “Zenith” and left the club, which had long been replenished with their own pupils. What is it – a normal situation for a team with big ambitions or a consequence of some flaws? On this subject, journalists discuss “Sports”.

Opinion Sergei Bavli

This is kind of a tradition: the complaints of the lack of an influx of young players from the reserve of the “Zenith” in the main will certainly mention Igor Denisov – the last of the Mohicans.

reminded that there may, and Alexei Ionov …

But Aleksei Ionov

Many years have called into question.

theme is not new and seems to be eternally relevant. Because to see her team of home-grown artists all want.

Anatoliy Davydov perhaps more than anyone else. For obvious reasons. On Sunday, in private conversation with him on this, as he said would Zhvanetsky, “touchy topic of finding internal reserves”.

young and able to mentor before zenitovskih reservists have. Fend them to the main structure can be gradually and with caution. That is, if aim to as soon as possible to polish their skills.

Aims Luciano Spalletti stated otherwise. “Zenith” is necessary to fight for victory in the championship and Cup of the country, but still far to go in the Champions League.

If there is a contradiction, it is common to all the top clubs. For those who need to get results immediately.

Opponents foresee objected, citing an example of the slaughter: “Barcelona”.

And this example is really fascinating. True, more recently Catalan Superclub more resembled the composition of the Dutch. Today, from the academy, “Barca” giving fantastic. So it was sometime in the “Ajax”, with its famous academy. But in Amsterdam, something stuck. At the academy, “Barcelona” – “children of different nations.” While in St. Petersburg, this is unlikely. All other top European clubs prefer ready-formed young artists, because in order to ripen. The normal international practice.

Andrei Arshavin once told me that in today's “Zenith” he would not break out the double. I am sure that Arshavin could have been. But we must soberly realize that St. Petersburg was not the Copacabana, the talent of this magnitude in our latitudes, are rare.

Anatoly Davydov

over the years with zenitovskimi reservists created an interesting, fighting team. In fact, even more, given the turnover. On the double matches come to a few thousand people – great when it is!

But pets

Davydova leaving. Does this mean that he and his colleagues – Coaches Academy – are working on “another uncle”?

I'm sure not. About bolelschitskom interest have already said. Of course, humanly sorry that the guys leave. Professional attitude suggests that this is a normal process.

Maxim Kanunnikov moved to “Tom”. Why not repeat the success of Dziuba and Artema return zamaterev Nepomnyastchy from Valery, in his native club?

way, zenitovskie reservists earn their name in St. Petersburg. And the club earns by selling them to other teams.

normal international practice.

Opinion Ivan Jidkova

Any

, even brilliantly running the football academy is doomed, that not all the fruits of her work will take advantage of home team. As a coach, only accepting the post, but can now consider himself fired, and as experts in youth football will never know exactly for what they bring up the team player. Produce annually for eleven core team could only Urfin old boy Deuce, and then only for his empire. And who they are, on the other hand, we need – wooden players Oorfene Deuce?

Still, it would be strange not to use the services of its own system of training, since its establishment spent a lot of money involved in friendly professionals who probably has something to do in life than to build a Potemkin village. However, it turns while in St. Petersburg, as in that joke about the girl at the doctor: “You do not have acne and sex life? Cycle of a”.

Judge: cheap players – such that, without a shiny wrapper for senior management – “Zenith” can not be taken. Laughed at. Black children also carry prohibited and willy-nilly, Luciano Spalletti has to accept it. Even if we consider that Ivica Krizanac leaves Peter in a suspicious coincidence, after the nasty things about heard enough of his countrymen during a match with “Khaidukov.” Accordingly, we can only fly the stars. More precisely, those who agree to move to a weaker championship, second in the mass parameters of the European top five.

Once a star have paid money, persuaded, told about the gold-diamond, three cups in three years and Rostral columns, then it ought to enter the main part. And while Luciano Spalletti was also coping with it fine, not offended, players get practice as soon as possible. And if there grumblers, they still remain alone with his gloomy thoughts.

Tries Spalletti and youth support, but he is sure, well aware that rarely goes for the replacement, cup match, occurring once every six months, and Incentives on taxes – as good as dead poultices. To the young grew, it needed to throw into the water and swim out force. And the more sensible range of partners, the faster he learns. In the “Zenith” has all the conditions to the same Kanunnikov year and a half turned into an intelligent striker. But instead of who he will play? Instead Bukharova? Maybe instead of Kerzhakov?

That fated youth until the composition of “fire air”, consoling ourselves that we – the “how” Real “…
