Azerbaijan, Baku, 18 November / Trend , corr. R.Ergun/Captain Zaur Tagizade's leaving from the Nefchi football club does not exclude.
"The term of the contract with Nefchi will expire on May 2009. I play for the team for a long term and ready to continue to play within the team. In the case of absence of any problem I will play in the team until the end of the season. I do not exclude that I may leave the team if any problem is occur," Tagizade said in the interview to Trend New.
Tagizade could not perform in the matches of Nefchi because of trauma. Recently, Tagizade passed medical treatment in Munich.
The recent changes within the team, Tagizade said, affected the play seriously.
"All replaced footballers were good players. Therefore, most football clubs want to pick up them. The leave of these footballers affected the team's performance at 70%," Tagizade stated.
Seven footballers were removed from the main composition of Nefchi several times ago. They were Rashad Sadigov, Elnur Allahverdiyev, Rashad Sadigov, Alexander Chertoganov, Georgiy Adamiya, Levent Kartop and Georgiy Chelidze. At present, Nefchi takes the ninth place with ten points amongst 14 teams in the Premier League.
According to Tagizade, one of the key reasons of the bad performance of Nefchi is frequent change of coaches.
"Frequent change of coaches affects footballers. Every new coach has his own play system. Footballers need time to sue to the system," Tagizade added.
Gans Yurgen Gede is the currenct coach of Nefchi. Before, Czech coach Vlastimil Petrjela and Ukrainian coach Anatoliy Demyanenko took the position.
Touching upon the bad relations between local and foreign footballers, Tagizade called them incorrect.
"I play for Nefchi for six years. I do not witness any problem between local and foreign players. Now, the team also does not face similar problems," Tagizade said.
Tagizade is also a member of the Azerbaijani national team, said that the national team besides of good defends, and must attack.
"I saw matches under Fogts coaching. We need time. However, I consider that besides of good defence the team must also demonstrate attack regardless of the place of the match," Tagizade added.
Since January 2009, Tagiozade will attend trainings of Nefchi team.
