Obviously I would like to see both teams in full rosters but this is the question of nearest future. I wish all injured players to be back soon and I understand that we did not see real picture. The tournament was good for us, we have seen a lot and analyzed with the players. Hopefully we will have Sonny Weems back on Monday. Congratulations to the team with Gomelsky Cup win, very important tournament for CSKA. Friendly games are over, we have to get back to real life. Thank you to the fans who supported us. I hope they will come with even bigger numbers on Wednesday to our first official game.
