Yes, the news flashed, the guys asked what was happening, and that's it, banal curiosity. Otherwise, the attitude remained the same. we are a good team and friendly team, many international guys, there are rugby players from Argentina, Georgia. Inside Britain they are also international — Welsh, Scots, Irish, English,» said 35-year-old Gotovtsev. «(In England) I feel great. Here I have a home, a family, I work in England, but my homeland is far away. In general, I think that everything is calm in England, I don’t feel any problems psychologically, nothing puts pressure on me, «he added.
