Famous coach Yuri Syomin commented on the early season games of the "Zenit" team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
In the last two rounds of the Premier League, the St. Petersburg team collected four points. According to Syomin, the "blue-white-blues" still need time.
He stated that "Zenit" is lacking time because new players have arrived. The team needs to adapt, find their form, and feel the complexities of Russian football.
It is not easy for players with individual skills to showcase themselves. Syomin identified "Zenit" as a main contender for the Russian championship.
As a former "Lokomotiv" coach, he emphasized the high level of players in the St. Petersburg team. It is worth noting that "Zenit" confidently defeated the "Rostov" team at home (2:1), and then played to a 2:2 draw against "Rubin" in the away game.
In Kazan, despite "Zenit" leading by two goals, they could not achieve victory. These results reflect the team's condition at the start of the season well.
