• Mielestäni Leningradissa vuonna 1986 pelaamamme shakin laatu oli ilmiömäisen korkea. En usko, että tämän päivän pelaajat voisivat ylittää sitä. Mielestäni se oli paras ottelu, jonka pelasimme, enkä usko että he saavuttavat sitä koskaan. Tämän päivän pelaajat tietävät enemmän jopa keskipelin asemista, koska he oppivat meiltä, mutta päätöksentekoprosessin taso ei missään tapauksessa ole sama.
