Commentator Dmitry Guberniev explained why he believes that the head of Lokomotiv, Yuri Semin, has been unfairly named the best trainer of 2019 in Russia according to sports journalists.
“I don’t really like it when people start taking on a lot of themselves and stoop to some banal insults there. And I’m a journalist, I have the right to ask questions.
I ask the question, why is Semin the best coach of 2019, do we have no others? Well, if you like Yuri Palych, who I also like, well, tell me that he is the sexiest coach in 2019, that he is the most wonderful coach, that he is the best coach in the world just because he is Semin, 2019.
But he cannot be the best coach of 2019 in a big country, because the people who made this decision, who voted, they, as I already called them “silver deer,” they were offended later.
This is disrespect for the profession of a coach, this is disrespect for the work of Tutberidze, Pokrovskaya, Wiener, Gabrilyan, coach Lasitsken, coach of our beach volleyball players who became world champions, coach Chupkov.
Trainer Nemtyrev, coach of Chupkov, prepared the world champion and record holder, and the best coach in the country for 2019 is not Nemtyrev, who prepared Chupkov, but Semin, who lost everything. Forgive me, of course, but my mind is seething indignant. With all my ardent love for Yury Palych. He is glorious, he is wonderful, I have been a fan of him since childhood, so what?
And then it begins: don’t touch it, it’s all kind of there, Ignatiev said that now, this is a mafia. I say that they also need me to be an agent of the State Department. But they cannot do this, because I’m an employee of state channels, because they would love to say that I’m an agent of the State Department who wants to go skiing to ruin them to hell, ”Guberniev said.
