Kyiv Debrief

So far so good this season for the Ukrainian Giants currently sitting top of Division 5.  With 9 games remaining in the league and currently sitting 3 points clear of Olympiacos in second place, Manager Grant Cameron has taken the time to evaluate the goals set out to achieve at the start of the season.

SO HERE WE GO ... 

Cameron believes his side have exceeded all expectations this season so far and what has already been a great season could become an incredible season by winning the Division 5 title. 

At the beginning of the season the objective was to improve on last season and try and push for a play-off spot, currently 19 points clear of 8th placed Santos with 27 points available it would seem that a play-off place is almost guaranteed. Automatic promotion would be next on the agenda with 4th placed Standard Liege 12 points behind this is still not guaranteed.

Cameron believes that 65 points will get automatic promotion and 76 points will be enough to claim the Division 5 title.

    

So far this season 22 players have came into Kyiv and 26 have left with the majority leaving being under 21. Recently there has been a lot of  interest in Armando Izzo the 24 yaer old Italian centre back. 

Cameron spoke with Izzo and both have came to an agreement that he will not be sold before the end of the season and a decision will then be made whether or not to place the Italian on the transfer list.
