Borussia Mönchengladbach: Hofmann very self-critical – World Cup biggest failure

World Cup biggest failure of career

Jonas Hofmann has recognized that Borussia Mönchengladbach has lost sight of the top of the Bundesliga and that a gap has opened up to other clubs that used to be behind the “foals”. “There are teams that have overtaken us in recent years. We imagined it differently. But you always get what you deserve,” said the 30-year-old offensive player in an interview “t-online”.

Hofmann remarked self-critically: “Union Berlin and SC Freiburg are rightly up there because they do an incredibly good job and perform weekly. We haven’t been able to do that in recent years.” Going into matchday 22, Gladbach is eighth in the table after ups and downs – nine points behind a European starting place.

Gladbach: Hofmann satisfied with personal season – World Cup biggest failure

While Borussia finished fourth and fifth in the 2018/19 and 2019/20 seasons under Dieter Hecking and Marco Rose, respectively, they only finished eighth and tenth in the two previous years. In the squad value ranking, Gladbach is still in the top third of the league with 233 million euros. For more continuity, coach Daniel Farke wants newcomers with a good mentality in the summer, as he recently revealed.

With 20 goals in 20 games across all competitions, Hofmann himself provided the best scorer values ​​for his team – just ahead of Marcus Thuram (18 in 22), whose contract ends next summer, as do five other professionals. Hofmann is “quite satisfied” with his own performances. On the other hand, the early end with the German national team at the World Cup in Qatar was frustrating for him. Hofmann came on as a substitute against Japan (1-2) and Spain (1-1), and he did not play a minute on the bench against Costa Rica (4-2).

“In my life it has never taken me long to get over a sporting disappointment. But that took a while. We had the dream of reaching the big goal. That was the biggest sporting failure of my career,” revealed the man from Heidelberg, who made a total of 19 appearances for the DFB selection.
