The head coach of volleyball champions Levski, Nikolay Zhelyazkov, commented to the club's website on the upcoming home match against Pirin (Razlog). The "Blues", who just days ago won their third consecutive Bulgarian Supercup, started the championship with a 0:3 home loss to Neftochimik 2010. The coach admitted that there are still some problems within the squad.

"The mood is good, we trained well during the week. Unfortunately, there are a few guys who won't be able to participate, but I believe we have the strength to cope as a team. Our goal is clear – a win against Pirin, and we will do everything possible to achieve it," Zhelyazkov stated.

The coach added that the team is struggling with some physical difficulties:

"We have physical problems. It's hard to say exactly when they will be overcome, because everything depends on the recovery process. The player we are most eagerly awaiting isGordan Lyutskanov. Hopefully, he will quickly overcome his knee problem, because he is extremely important for the team. I hope to see him back in action as soon as possible," added the Levski coach.
