Ummmmmm...no. I do expect them, Zenit, and CSKA to have a hell of a time fighting for a title and have some impact on European competition, though.

"Makhachkala" is the city in Dagestan where they reside.

Or think the other way round..It could become famous precisely for its shitty name.. Laughing

More infamous to be exact..

Why is everyone dumping on the name of the club?

That has no correlation as how strong they will be, what players they attract or how much money they splash out.

The point is moot and irrelevant.
