Smart!
Baumgart is criticized for too many changes and the change of top performers, the fact is – we are not used to the double burden.
The FC also reaches its limits at some point and that’s normal.
In addition, you have to say that Baumgart said again and again that there is no A and B squad with him, everyone gets the chance to play.
That the top performers tend to play in the league to keep the league is completely legitimate and so the ‘supposed B squad’ gets the chance to show itself in the conference league.
Dietz, for example, lacks the consistency to play at this level, Husenbasic is doing better and better.
Soldo also seems to be arriving in the squad, where some may have been waiting for it.
Then you have a Pedersen who, in my opinion, didn’t do well on the outside today, with Hector at the back there was a little more movement in the game again.
What naturally pushes a team are the fans, who weren’t fully there today.
Of course you noticed the mood on TV, but it’s something different than when the block is full.
Many factors play a role, but relegation was what was proclaimed this season and last.
Now we’ve got extra bread and can see where we end up and measure ourselves against European teams again, but whoever thinks that FC will win the cup is dreaming.
But there is still a lot in the Conference League and we will be surprised what happens, on Sunday against Augsburg we need points FOR staying in the class.
