Firstly I’d like to say it makes me immensely proud to get the opportunity to manage CSKA Moscow in Top100. I am very much looking forward to taking over and getting started. It has been a crazy 48 hours settling in but thanks to the Chairman Yevgeni Giner for showing faith in me here.
I arrive at CSKA with a squad after assessment that I feel is very strong, I can only thank a friend to me in the GW Bruin for the hard work he has put in previously and also admire the work done by Fred Dodger in previous seasons notably by bringing a Division 3 Title to CSKA.
I can not say at this time completely wherever there will be any big movement in terms of personal. It is looking unlikely as I am very happy with what I have currently seen but me and my team will continue to assess what might be needed and get more of a grip in the current transfer market.
Over the seasons CSKA have jumped between Division 2 and 3, ultimately my goal would be to take them up and keep them there. I wouldn’t want to set myself to high targets to begin with, the chairman has set me the goal of avoiding relegation but I do not think I would be doing the quality of this team justice to just try and achieve that. Ill be looking for a top 10 finish and hopefully push for more.
I do not hold a wealth of experience as a Manager and learnt a lot of my trade and have watched a lot of Top100 through close friend Mark Stewart, I am well aware of his achievements with Hertha Berlin and admired from a far what he was achieving there.
But the time has come now to step out from watching a great story unfold and start to write my own!!
Top 100
