"Europe will come crawling": Russian media spread nonsense that Russia has given world football "methods and the best coaches"

Former Akron head coach Evgeniy Kaleshin, who had previously complained about the collapse of Russian football, spoke out against the transition of teams from Russia to Asia. The 45-year-old specialist also made an incredible claim that Europeans will not be able to exist without the aggressor country.

Kaleshin said this in an interview with the RB Sport portal. The Russian coach expressed confidence that "Europe will crawl to Russia," which "gave Europe the methodology, the best coaches," citing the example of specialists in general training and volleyball Verkhoshansky and Platonov.

"Why should we move to Asia when we are closer to Europe? We gave Europe the methodology, the best coaches - Vyacheslav Platonov, Yuri Verkhoshansky. We have all the best coaches! Europe has to come to us. We need to create a strong product, tournaments, starting with the Leather Ball. We need to make people look at our players and want to play with us. I think Europe will crawl to Russia. Without our country and our market, it will be very difficult for them. We have a huge market and a lot of players and thinking coaches. We can come up with something that they can't," Kaleshin said in a patriotic tone.

Earlier, the former Akron coach, who has not won a single title in his 10-year coaching career and has not worked at a high level, complained that the legionnaires do not learn Russian.

As OBOZ.UA previously reported, the European Football Union (UEFA) did not include the Russian national team in the draw for the new draw of the League of Nations. The State Duma called this decision cannibalistic.
