The head coach of the Russian national team and Moscow’s Dynamo, **Valery Karpin**, addressed the question regarding the potential disputes that may arise among players on the team.

**“How do you resolve disputes between players in your teams?”**
**“Conflicts between players are bound to happen. As footballers, we tend to have inflated egos. Each one believes they are the best and feels the need to showcase their abilities.
