Previously, our analysts have studied the possibility of the leaders and tried to figure out which of the clubs is capable of surprises (Russian Premier League 2007: Part 1. Leaders of the Russian Football Championship 2007: Part 2. Troublemakers)

In any championship

the largest group of participants are those who do not pretend to high places, awards, and different preferences. These clubs can, and announce out loud about his big ambitions but solve quite different tasks. They are always and everywhere called middle peasants and outsiders, these clubs are “body fat” of any tournament and, according to many, they determine the level of the tournament: the stronger compositions and more organized game, the more difficult to account for the leaders and the more intrigue in the championship.

In the championship of Russia to these commands are 12.10 clubs, some of which are struggling to maintain our place in the Premier League, and some decide local problems and is capable of local sensation. A number of clubs, showing the average results have huge ambitions, and each year intends to break into the elite. But in addition to tournament success in a particular segment of the global personal they can not afford.

The number of average people certainly are ambitious capital “Dynamo” and “Moscow”. “White-blue” the past couple of years, plunged into shock all of its transfer policy, spending tens of millions of dollars to players and created in Europe is not the most positive image of Russian football – a sort of European Qatar, where the pay crazy money to any visitor footballer. The result is lamentable, the last two seasons, “Dinamo” struggling for survival and only retain the last rounds of residence.

Situation is unlikely to change dramatically next year, the leadership of “Dynamo” do not have enough professionalism to achieve results. Inviting good coaches – Oleg Romantsev, Yuri Semin – working conditions for them are not very favorable. It's no secret that in the camp of “blue and white” there are problems in relations between the Russian players and the legions that mentors have been deprived of many mechanisms of influence on the players, coaches and authority undermined by a lot. Semin severance enough said about that directly, saying that the players simply ignore it is installed. If Andrew Kobelev receive all power in his office, but we can expect progress in the game, “Dinamo”, but so far the team, after all the high-profile departures, and the organization of the game does not correspond to the solution of large problems, so in the first place “eight” would be to team a good result.

FC “Moskva” is trying to through a clear and coherent organization of a club transfer policy to succeed. But there is a “citizens” a position that needs strengthening, without that much success they can not achieve. No matter how happy taskmasters Leonid Slutsky, but it is still “weak link” in the whole structure of the “Moscow”. He worked well with the double, but the results with a basis in his average. Of course, the fifth and sixth place may be considered as a measure of success, but no chance to climb higher in the Slutsk “Moscow” has no ambition and CEO Yury Belous and structures, funding the club, much more than the “first place after the leaders.” Expect layoffs Slutsky during the first round if the team is not entrenched in the top three.

“Tom” before the 2006 season, declared his high pretensions and even scored three wins in a row, but financial difficulties began and the team rolled to a place that corresponds more opportunities Siberians. Along with the Vladivostok “Ray,” “Moscow”, “Dinamo”, “Saturn,” “Ruby” will divide Tomichi place from fifth to tenth. Below is unlikely to “Tom” is empty, can not fly higher.

Look weaker than the other positions Nalchik “Spartacus” Samara “Wings of the Soviets,” Permian “Amkar”. With high probability we can expect the flight to the first division one, maybe two clubs from the list. Fate is not yet clear, “Rostov” – the team has already signed several strong players in this offseason, but will the coaching staff to benefit from this – it is not clear.
