I hope he will make us all happy with his professionalism for a long time. When I was nominated, it was Igor who played a decisive role in my invitation.
I have my own training method, I have learned a lot from good coaches - my late father, Nikolai Gontarya and Vyacheslav Chanov. They shared their experiences with me. When I started coaching, I went to many courses in Minsk, Riga and Istanbul, where I was awarded diplomas. It was very interesting in terms of learning the innovations of modern football. Most people know my character. I'm not in favor of shouting. I show and ask more than criticism and demand. Many may not like this style, but it often helps us. "
