The former Russia coach said, "Is the Emirates the best stadium in London? No. Everyone has their own idea of stadiums. I don't like round arenas like Wembley. I love stadiums like the old classic English stadiums, which are made in a square."

For Slutsky, the best experience was at the old Tottenham stadium, White Hart Lane.

“You sit and everyone is playing under you. Perfect picture. I like CSKA stadium very much. More than any other," he added.
