The MŠK Žilina players started their month-long winter training with a joint meeting on Saturday 7 January. In it six preparatory matches await them before the abrupt start of the championship, scheduled for Saturday 11 February against Skalica.
28 players reported to coach Jaroslav Hynk during the initial training session. “The interim period of December was very fruitful for us. We hired the boys from team B, we played good games, even if the Sparta one was disrupted by the flu epidemic and the absence of several boys. Even after the playoffs championship, we are in sixth place, which is important for us, because we have everything in our hands, our goal is to be in the top six.
We want to prepare well for the four league games of the regular season and manage them. A applause goes to the boys for the transitional period and the current implementation of individual plans. The guys approached responsibly. I think we will continue this trend over the next four weeks.” he said according to the club’s website.
The coach can no longer count on the duo of Taofiq Jibril and Patrik Myslovič. “Jibril did a great job for the team, but the goals were absent. His efficiency was really low. He approached the things we asked him. When we said goodbye, we said we all did our best and Jib he had the space we have “Paja’s farewell was pretty quick. It’s normal to expect players to leave when working with a young squad. It happened and only with time will we see how much we will miss Patrik.”
Statistically he was the fourth best midfielder in the league after the crash, which is worth noting. It bore him fruit in the form of hospitality and sporting achievements. We simply have to replace it. We will replace this couple with guys from the reserve team. On the other hand, the team is healthy, Dávid Ďuriš is almost 100% after the injury, Jano Minárik has switched to full training.” informed coach Hynek.
The changes occurred in Žilina and in the implementation team. “We want to improve and make things more efficient in terms of tactics, fitness and analysis. Dušan Binder has been replaced by Richard Polák, whom I have known for a long time and who came to Žilina on my recommendation. I believe he will bring qualities he already has demonstrated with team B”. Hynek justified the arrival of an external analyst.
