Famous Russian YouTube blogger Yevgeniy Savin dedicated ''Krasava'' to the Roma and Armenia midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan, News.am reports. 

In an interview 31-year-old midfielder shared his memories of the key episodes of his career, problems of Armenian football and threats from Azerbaijanis as well as relations with Jurgen Klopp and Jose Mourinho.

''The biggest problem in Armenian football is that the players do not want to learn something because of being too lazy. Of course, this does not apply to everyone; I do not want to criticize anyone. People in Europe and Armenia have different ideas about work. Most Armenians say: ‘I want to sleep, wake up and find a million dollars under my pillow.’ I earned my first $20 when I was 15, then 40, 80, 120. I never complained and continued to work,'' he said.

Mkhitaryan admitted he had received many threats from Azerbaijanis.

''They threatened me on Facebook, Instagram, but I am not paying attention. I am proud to be Armenian,'' Mkhitaryan said.
