On the eve of a friendly match with the national team of Albania midfielder of the national team of Ukraine and Schalke Eugene Konoplyanka answered the questions of the fans on the official channel of FFU on YouTube.

- How much more do you plan to perform at the highest level? Did not think about moving to MLS?.

- IN USA? No, I did not exactly think. Maybe in a few years I'll think, but for now I want to play in serious championships - England, Spain, Germany ... Time runs, but I'll play how much health is enough. So long as Tolya Tymoschuk, probably, I can not play. There are no more such as he.

- Who of the players was an idol for you?.

- Idol of childhood for me was Del Piero. Then I liked Ronaldinho. Now - Messi. He demonstrates fantastic football. Cristiano Ronaldo can just score, and Messi scores, and then as many assists can give away.

- At what age do you need to go to Europe to progress? Do not you regret that you did not go earlier?.

- No, in life you should not regret anything, you just have to look ahead and move on. I'm happy with what I have at the moment. In Ukraine, too, you can grow into a good football player, talented guys are, and they always give a chance. I do not want to talk about how to educate players in Europe. I am a patriot of Ukraine, and I believe that we can do everything not worse than Europeans.

- Who are you most comfortable playing in the national team?.

- When the team was Ruslan Rotan - then with him. We spent many years together in the Dnieper, and it's just a pleasure to play next to this player. He knows what to do, he saves your strength so that you can create your own moment. Ruslan - A man with a capital letter, not only in football, but also outside the field.

- Who is the most technical team in the national team?.

- Earlier was Andrei Yarmolenko, now added Marlos. Here they are the most technical. Of those who do not play in the national team, I will call Artem Fedetskiy.

- What goal do you consider the most important in your career?.

- I often remember the ball into the gates of Ajax, when we reached the final of the Europa League with the Dnieper. That was incredible! But I want to note the goal of Eugene Seleznev in the gates of Napoli after my transfer, I will not forget those emotions, I wanted to kiss him! I remember how Miron Markevich rushed to the field ... For the sake of such emotions, he is not ready to score any more, but only to give effective programs.

- What is your hobby?.

- I like tennis. In my spare time I try to play, but there is little free time. All I want to play with Andrei Voronin, because he claims that the second in the rating after Roger Federer ... Let's see!.
