Sanjar led the Olympic in 2013.

"Was I on the verge of being fired in Olympique? I think yes. It was already in the Premier League. We had a devastating defeat, an unsuccessful second round of the first season, when we just went to the elite, "Sanzhar said on the air of the My Game program on Football 1.

"We had a good first round and took 4th place. Then, after going through the training camp, we arrived - and there are no green fields. And how to prepare a team in such conditions? We have synthetics, on which it is free and normal to work only partially ... ".

"You do not load children, then you begin to load, injuries happen, the guys start pouring in, and you do not know what to do-to load or not to load them? Of course, there was no experiment, and we acted more intuitively. Let's go defeat - one, two, three ".

"Gelzin (President of Olympic, - note.

) Probably, with his patience we supported. We even had conversations on these topics, when I told him that maybe it's worth changing the coach ... "I spoke first about this.
