The player keeps on saying that now he is perfectly happy. Injures because of which he was treated more than played in the last three years are in the past.

Rubin is on the first place in the championship and Bukharov is among the leaders in the top scorers race. Moreover he was invited to the national team for the first time.

"When I was young I lacked professionalism and was too hot-blooded," said the newcomer of the national squad. "That is why I had conflicts and could not stay in any team for a long time."

"When I started playing in Rubin I rethought a lot. Kurban Berdyev settled my brains though at the beginning it was easy with him at all."

"At the moment I have no agent and I don't need one. A player must have one when he wants to change the club and I am not going to leave Rubin. My contract runs off only in two years. And I like it here."

"At the age of about 17 I had a chance to be in KAMAZ. The club offered a five-year long contract."

"But when they announced the salary I laughed saying that they must have mocked at me. The proposed salary was 500 rubles a month!"

"In KAMAZ such things were all in the day's work. They gave ridiculous money to the youngsters and at the same time bind them with long-termed agreements."

"That is why I moved to Moscow to the reserves of CSKA. Oleg Malyukov who trained the youngsters said that I suited them. But at the last moment everything came off because of the fracture of the collarbone."

"When I saw Guus Hiddink in person I understood that in life he is absolutely different than on the TV screen. He looks more important."

"But actually when you start communicating with him you realize that he is good-natured and merry man."

"In the Russian Premier League the most undesirable defender for me is Ignashevich. He is aggressive, can perfectly read the play and often takes the lead."

"It is very difficult to compete with him in the air. And I want to mention Berezutsky as well."

"Actually I don't distinguish between the two brothers [Alexey and Vasiliy are twins] but taking into account that this season Vasiliy plays oftener I speak about him."

"My non-football dream is to start a family. I think it is high time I did it."

"But till now I have not met my second half. But I am going to move to a different flat and maybe after this something will change in my personal life. At the moment I am living with my mother and sister."
