With nine points from four games, FC Schalke 04 started the new season of the 2nd Bundesliga. In the area of the royal blue, hope is growing in the race to be able to have a say in the race to be able to have a say. However, two brief icons step on the euphoric.
“You shouldn’t be blinded,” warned Klaus Fischer in the “Football Legend Talk” of early jubilee at FC Schalke 04. The latest 1-0 with promoted Dynamo Dresden was just as much a typical “0: 0 game” as the 0-1 bankruptcy on match day 1. FC Kaiserslautern. In both encounters, they had practically “no chances”.
The team of coach Miron Muslic currently shares second place in the table with SV Elversberg, which is also with nine points and a goal difference of 5: 3. After the international break, the home game against Bundesliga relegated Holstein Kiel (September 13th) is on the program.
“You have to be very, very careful, don’t spit big tones and prefer to continue working hard,” Fischer said the route for Schalke. Because: “There are problems in front.”
Rüdiger Abramczik also doesn’t quite trust the roast in Gelsenkirchen. “If we were not so good at the back, chaos would probably be there,” warned the veteran of the Ruhrpottverein. So far, “too little” has come from midfield, which is why the strikers “would hang a bit in the air”. So some more to do for Muslic?
Schalke coach Muslic praises new virtues
At the “Sky” microphone, the trainer had made it clear on Sunday not to be ashamed of the three in Dresden.
“The 2nd German Bundesliga is not a beauty competition. You need many virtues that sound a bit old school, have to knock everything in, go to the limit,” emphasized the 42-year-old.
They had “players who are far away from 100 percent. But that shows the team spirit of Schalke, the new spirit, these boys absolutely wanted to be on the pitch.”
