ELKHAN ABDULLAYEV: YOU WILL NEVER HEAR THAT "GARABAGH" HAS BOUGHT A GAME"

In the "Futbol+" newspaper dated on 05.07.2005 there was printed an interview of our coach Elkhan Abdullayev. Taking into consideration that the interview is interesting we present you important extracts. __________________________________________________________ To tell you the truth my aim was quite another talking to Elkhan Abdullayev. For an instance I thought that Elkhan Abdullayev had left the "Garabagh" club like others. But I was wrong. The fact that he hasn’t left the club helped us to take some information about "Garabagh". Abdullayev who remained as a coach in our national team in contrast to Toress and this team was our priority subject. - "Garabagh" don’t have trainings after the end of Championship. The management of the Club is in Turkey. They will soon be back and you will get all information you need. - Do really "Garabagh" have great problems? - What do you call problems? - For an example many players have left the club. And no one is coming in exchange. - We had 23 footballers. Along with legionaries. The ones whose contracts have ended they left. Only two players who had contract with us have left. - How many footballers have left on the team? - Nine. Azar Chabarov, Samir and Ruslan Musayevs, Vitaliy Kovalyov, Mubariz Oruchov, Mustafa Engin Ozman, Denis Sokolovski, Mustafa Coshqun, Artyom Shubin have remained in the team. - "Garabagh" will not be able to put forward its claim. Will it? - There will be changes I have talked about it with the management. We aren’t in a hurry to be a champion and participate in euro-cups. Still we have time. We try to build the infrastructure of the club. "Garabagh" shouldn’t be the team of the next season but it should be the team of the Future. We still have no chief coach. We will define it in a few days. And we will begin for trainings in two or three days...
