Artem Dzyuba wants to return to the Russian national football team. The Zenit striker said this openly on the More Sport YouTube channel. According to the footballer, he is ready to take a step towards the head coach of the national team Valery Karpin. Will this statement help Dziuba get a place in the main team of the country? Vladimir Osipov, a sports commentator for Kommersant FM, was sorted out.
Hundreds of materials have been written about the conflict between Karpin and Dziuba in recent months. Who is right and who is to blame in this story, the devil himself will not understand. Either Karpin doesn’t call Dziuba to the national team, then he does, but the second one doesn’t come because he’s not ready. It seemed that the final of the story was the statement of Valery Georgievich about the scandalous striker: “I put an end to it. As you want – ask, do not ask – your problems. “
But now Dziuba himself returned to this issue and added fuel to the fire on the new YouTube channel “More Sports”: “I want without undercover games. I’m ready to come without all this. Do you want to play for the national team? Want. Ready to come? Ready. Without any talk that he was or did not decompose the collective. “
On the one hand, Artem Dziuba seems to have realized everything, on the other hand, the resentment towards Karpin is still felt in the words of the football player. And with this approach, the Zenit striker may not even think about getting into the national team, football manager Yuri Belous is sure: “Dziuba must understand that he cannot set any conditions, as they can do without him. He must say: I dream of playing for the national team, come, if they hire me, I will do my best, including during the training process. And he talks about what Karpin should do, and even set some conditions – this is beyond the bounds. “
It is possible that all these statements by Dziuba will have the opposite effect on the coaching staff, and now Artyom will not get into the team, even if he is ready for all 100. But despite all the complexity of his character, such a player from Karpin’s national team in the spring would most likely come in handy, I’m sure football analyst Konstantin Kleschev: “I really want to believe that Karpin is guided by common sense.
And proceeding, first of all, from the interests of the national team, he will understand that the attack needs variability, and Dzyuba can give it at the right time.
Karpin, of course, is not his own enemy. For the sake of the result, you can give up some principles without crossing a certain line. “
There is still time before the play-offs of the national team, which are scheduled for March next year. But now the leaders of all RPL clubs have gone to meet the main team and postponed the 22nd round of the championship so that the national team’s coaching staff had a little more time to prepare. Such unanimity in the actions of football officials is rare. But now absolutely everyone understands that the world championship is at stake. Maybe Karpin will eventually decide not to abandon a player of a serious level by our standards. After all, if the team had five goalkeepers, then maybe there will be a place for one more striker, at least so that the hype around this story subsides.
