Bulykin predicted a drop in the level of the Russian national team when the limit on legionnaires was lifted

Former striker of the Moscow "Locomotive" and the Russian national team Dmitry Bulykin in an interview explained why it is impossible to cancel the limit on foreign players in the Russian Premier League (RPL).

“If we have all the clubs decide that they want to play with eleven foreign players, then our team will lose to Liechtenstein, because our players will sit on the bench and just train. What's the point? If someone is outraged by the salaries of Russian football players, then let him ask questions to the owners of the clubs.

Why do they give such high salaries? So someone is interested in paying them, that's all. Other countries do not have such salaries. Everyone receives bonuses, which depend on the number of minutes spent on the field or on the place in the standings.

Our team, for which the whole country is rooting, needs personnel. If these cadres sit on the bench, we won't win anything. If the players take to the field, whether with or without a limit, then they will adequately defend the honor of the country.

Those legionnaires who will come to us point by point should be head and shoulders above the Russians. So that clubs do not seek to take average foreigners instead of Russian guys and do not play players for other national teams, ”Bulykin said.

Earlier, Dmitry Bulykin appreciated the proposal of State Duma deputy Roman Teryushkov to ban foreign players in the RPL.
