En kort kommentar til den ukrainske landstræner Blokhin, som få måneden inden udtagelserne herunder var en del af det ukrainske parliament ......
he (Blokhin) spoke about how young Ukrainian players are emulating the increasing number of foreigners playing in Ukraine’s domestic league.
Here’s what Blokhin said:
Let them learn from Andriy Shevchenko or Blokhin, and not some Zumba-Bumba whom they took off a tree, gave him two bananas and now he plays in the Ukrainian League. I remember when I played, if we lost a game it was not easy to walk the streets. There were a great many friends out there who could beat you up for that.
But is there any sense in beating up a foreigner? Okay, you beat him up – next thing he does is pack up and go.
That Blokhin was until March a member of the Ukrainian Parliament makes this all the more bizarre (or maybe not).
