Andrey Lunyov has been widely discussed in the media not for his reliable performance on the last line of defense, but for his sharp opinions. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
Of course, his words resonated widely. In today's world, such open and direct criticism is not common.
When the press representatives heard Lunyov's thoughts, it felt like a return to the mid-1990s, a time when speaking the truth was the norm. However, even back then, such sharp criticism directed at the team or the head coach was not accepted.
Let's recall the sharp words spoken by the 'Dinamo' goalkeeper. In his first appearance, he criticized the team captain Bitello: "Why is Bitello the captain?
It's surprising. Because he didn't come to the training camp before, and now he is the captain.
Okay, let it be." These words made him the main character in sports publications for a month.
But Lunyov was not going to stop. His next criticisms were directed at Karaskal: "Karaskal apologized for being late, but he whispered something in Spanish."
Such remarks indicate that there are problems within the team. Additionally, he criticized head coach Valeriy Karpin: "Karpin's handling of two jobs at the same time is subject to criticism.
The management and club leadership need to coordinate this. If it is convenient for everyone, then it should be so."
Trying to ease the situation within the team, player Tyukavin referred to Lunyov as "unique" and emphasized that there is a warm atmosphere in the team. There are also reports that negotiations took place between Valeriy Karpin and Lunyov, and the parties reached an agreement.
It is necessary to try to understand Lunyov's motives behind his sharp words. His criticisms of the legionnaires mainly indicate that he is dissatisfied with the greater rights given to legionnaires compared to local players.
This topic is a constant issue in our football. Based on his experience as a legionnaire, Lunyov believes that local players should be given more respect.
For example, if he played for 'Bayer' or 'Qarabagʻ' and did not come to the training camp, he would never be a captain. Evaluating criticisms directed at the head coach is more complex.
Why did Lunyov say such things? Criticizing the head coach is risky, especially when recalling past conflicts.
However, Karpin's words somewhat clarify this: "I used to smoke too. If 'Rostov' players had smoked after a victory, I wouldn't have paid attention."
This means that Lunyov's situation is somewhat similar. If he is playing well, there will be no punishment for criticism, but if the quality of play declines, then the criticisms will be harsher.
Lunyov is currently the main goalkeeper of 'Dinamo' and is showing reliable performance in the team. He could also be competitive in the national team.
It is difficult to draw a clear conclusion about the internal environment of the Dinamo team. However, due to Lunyov's words, an opportunity has arisen to improve the atmosphere within the team.
If this situation had arisen in the middle of the season, it would have been more difficult to resolve the issues. Therefore, the current situation can be considered an opportunity for positive changes for the team.
