Were all players able to come to Tiraspol?
Some of the players stayed in London. These are Kyle Walker, Paulo, Andros Townsend and YonesKaboul who has not yet recovered after his injury.

These players did not come because they needed time to have rest?
Yes, there have really been many games lately including the games in national teams, so the rest is acceptable.

Will Aaron Lennon take part in the match?
The final decision has not been made yet.

What do you know about “Sheriff”? Did you examine the matches they took part in?
I have never visited matches of “Sheriff” personally but we sent our people to their Europa League matches. “Sheriff” plays in the attacking football, they like to attack and their leadership in Moldavian Championship impresses us, of course. “Tottenham” will take the field to win tomorrow.

What can you say about Adebayor?
He came to Tiraspol but it will be known only tomorrow whether he will take part in the game.

How important is it to win tomorrow?
It is better to take this issue about going out of the group off the table tomorrow because it will be more difficult to deal with it in Tromsø taking into account weather conditions and synthetic coating.

What can prevent “Tottenham” from getting three points tomorrow?
It depends not only on us but on the rival as well. If “Sheriff” is concentrated to the maximum, it will not busy easy for us. First of all, we should come on the field being disciplined and perfectly coordinated, then we will be able make it.

It often happens in football that a popular team does not always achieve a positive result…
We have never underestimated our rival. If we have a serious attitude to this game, then we will not underestimate our rival.
