BVB coach Rose: Challenge to FC Bayern – Jealous” of RB Leipzig’s cup success

BVB coach about the championship

Coach Marco Rose from Borussia Dortmund has renewed the challenge to series champions FC Bayern Munich. “Bayern are German champions in their tenth year. You don’t want to get used to that,” said the BVB coach on Friday. “We want to position ourselves in such a way that we gradually have the chance to have a say and attack at the top.” BVB last won the championship in 2012. Almost exactly ten years to the day before Bayern won their tenth consecutive title in the last weekend won a direct duel with the black and yellow.

Not everything has been bad in the league this season. “In order to finish second in the competition, you have to get the points first,” said Rose: “But the goal is different.” That’s why he didn’t want to give anything away in the season finale, which is not very important in the table. “If we slack off in any way, I’ll step in,” Rose promised before the turf duel against VfL Bochum, who want to make the league perfect, on Saturday (3:30 p.m.): “The last impression is not unimportant, you take it with you. “ It will be his 100th Bundesliga game as a coach.

When it comes to staff, Rose wants to try something in the remaining three games for next season, but in moderation. “Of course you’re already thinking about next season,” he said. Because of the injury worries, the team is “almost on its own at the moment”. He wants to give the talents who were there recently “another chance to show themselves”. But he also takes into account the U19s, who are fighting for the title in the cup and championship. “It is important that they reap there what they have sown all year.”

BVB coach Rose about RB Leipzig: look a little jealous

Meanwhile, BVB coach Rose is following the path to success of Eintracht Frankfurt and RB Leipzig in the Europa League with joy, but also with some melancholy. “Both are doing excellently,” said Rose on Friday: “Leipzig is also playing in the DFB Cup final. We from Dortmund look a bit jealous. But they deserved it and worked for it. You have to be able to indulge yourself.”

All in all, he was “very happy that the two are showing that the Bundesliga is not doing so badly in international comparison. Unfortunately, we couldn’t do that this year.” BVB was eliminated in the group stage of the Champions League and in the first knockout round of the Europa League.

The native of Leipzig, who worked for Red Bull Salzburg for four years, did not confirm that he was in a possible final for Leipzig. “I would wish for a German final. I’m out for the rest. The better one should win,” Rose asserted. In Frankfurt he is also pleased with the development of BVB loan player Ansgar Knauff (20), who is on the right wing and has already scored two goals in the Europa League. This is “a win-win situation for everyone, because Ansgar comes to play and continues to develop.”
