Former forward of the Russian national team and St. Petersburg's "Zenit" Andrey Arshavin expressed his thoughts on the chances of the Moscow Central Army team in the upcoming season of the Russian Premier League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
In his appearance on the "Match TV" channel, Arshavin said: "The Central Army winning in the Premier League? If Nikolich had stayed, the chances would have been greater.
Under his management, the team showed good results." It should be noted that last season the Central Army won the Russian Cup.
In the country championship standings, they secured third place. After the season ended, head coach Marko Nikolich from Serbia left his position.
Swiss specialist Fabio Chelestini was appointed in his place. The team is striving to achieve new heights with the new coach.
