"Tyson and Marlos are very important players for Shakhtar. I think we are lucky that they could not play today because they are very good players ".

"I had a very good time at Shakhtar, I won a lot of trophies here, I still have friends. We mainly communicate: I, Shevchuk, Lewandowski, Hubschman, Andriy Pyatov, Rakitsky, the players who played with me ".

"Of course, I know that Shevchuk is already coaching, we often talk to him. Will I be a coach? This is not for me".
