Suslov came to the meeting with the best player of Groningen’s best player: This is the only thing we need to improve – Športky.sk

SENEC – Tomáš Suslov arrived at the November meeting of the Slovak national football team with the business card of the best player FC Groningen in this league season. He was declared the man of the match even after Sunday’s home draw in the 12th round of the highest Dutch competition with RKC Waalwijk 1: 1. He can enjoy individual performances more than the results of the club, which is in the fifteenth place just above the descent zone.

The 19-year-old midfielder also surpassed the only-goal scorer Jorgen Strand Larsen. He is at the top of the internal standings after a dozen performances with a five-point lead. “I still come in a good mood. As far as my individual performances are concerned, they are definitely at a good level, but as a team we want to collect more points. That’s the only thing we need to improve.” said Suslov, who is able to take on various positions in his teens: “When the 4-3-3 system is played, I like the extreme striker the most. I also like the position of the underscore player, now we play a little more defensive in the club, so I also play eight. It’s only good for my career.”

His contract will not expire until the summer of 2025, but he can arouse the interest of larger clubs much earlier: “I don’t like to talk about such things because I still have a valid contract with Groningen. Of course, when there is a serious offer, I will definitely think about it. Now I will only focus on Groningen and see what happens in the transfer window. I will not focus on that at the moment. . “

In the most valuable jersey, Suslov has seven starts. In the ending World Cup qualifiers, he hit three duels, but never once completed a full minute. At home against Malta, he appeared in the starting line-up, with Cyprus and Russia jumping in the end. More space could be opened for him in November against Slovenia and Malta. The Slovaks can only fight for the final third place: “I want to play in the national team as well, but the decision is up to the coach. When I get the chance, I have to be prepared and use it. Every national team match is important, it doesn’t matter if it is preparatory or qualifying. “We approach this as a normal and serious match. I will focus on being able to help the team as best I can.”

In the initial mutual meeting in Slovenia, a 1: 1 draw was born and the Slovaks felt that they could achieve more. They want to confirm it on Thursday in Trnava. “I think we have the best in terms of quality. We have also shown that we are a better team in Slovenia. If we give a 100% performance, we can definitely be successful. In the previous two events, the game was very good in my opinion, but we did not get as many points as we imagined “I think it will come, hopefully this suddenly. As far as the game is concerned, we can definitely be satisfied and we can build on that.” Suslov added.
