George Chikhladze's thoughts: "Our goal is to maintain our place in the elite."

In the 17th round of the Misli Premier League, Gabala crushed Shamakhi 4-0. At the post-match press conference, the guests' coach, George Chikhladze, answered journalists' questions.

 

- I congratulate the players. We prepared well. We faced a strong team. The opponent plays with 2 tactical schemes. We took both into account. We prepared for this game during the training camp. Akinadze and Keita have also joined the team well.

 

- Which position do you plan to play Keita in?

- To tell the truth, he played like that out of necessity. We are waiting for a transfer to the defensive midfielder position. Jaime is suspended.

 

- There is talk about Turan Manafov's transfer to Gabala. Can this happen?

- Yes. He is an experienced football player. Negotiations are underway.

 

- How did you feel alone in the technical area?

- Football is a part of it. Coaches are also punished. I have also worked in Azerbaijan before.

 

-Can we say that Gabala made the transfers in the winter that they could not make in the summer?

- When we came from the 1st league, we had a different squad. Our goal was to protect the squad in the 1st league. But we had to get stronger. Our goal is to maintain our place in the elite.
