Eintracht Frankfurt: Coach Toppmöller praises Marmoush and Götze

SGE undefeated for six games

Eintracht Frankfurt attacker Omar Marmoush received special praise from coach Dino Toppmöller after five goals in the last three league games. “Omar is a very good player who has now discovered scoring goals a bit,” said Toppmöller, who also had words of appreciation for Mario Götze’s performance after Hessen’s 3-0 win at 1. FC Union Berlin.

The fact that the SGE has been unbeaten in all competitions for six games in a row and has a record of five wins and one draw is also thanks to the Egyptian, but it is anything but a coincidence, said the 42-year-old coach: “We are working with him on this . And I just like that he is extremely hard-working, that he listens, is interested and gets involved. The goals that are being scored for him at the moment are also a reward for the hard work that he has.”

Marmoush scored twice in Köpenick, as he did last weekend against Dortmund. With six goals, he has now scored more goals in the league than he ever has in an entire season. The right-footer also recently netted against Helsinki in the Europa League and has a total of eleven goals in 17 competitive games.

Toppmöller emphasized the progress of the 24-year-old, who came to SGE from Wolfsburg on a free transfer in the summer and, in the course of the latest update, increased his market value by two million euros to the current high of eight million euros (see history).

“Because of his speed, he always has moments that are unpleasant for a defender, that he goes deep,” said the coach. “But he now also has a feeling for getting into the red zone again and again and helping us with his footballing technique and putting the ball down cleanly as a wall player.”

Eintracht Frankfurt: Toppmöller praises Götze as “incredibly important”

The Frankfurt team jumped to 7th place in the table after the 10th matchday. Toppmöller also had words of praise for Mario Götze, who came on briefly after a baby break and suspension. Götze had prepared the 3-0 through Nacho Ferri eight minutes before the end. “These are the moments for which neutral spectators come to the stadium. That was a sensational pass. “Not so many players play this ball, have this eye…” said the coach.

It was Götze’s first assist of the current season, in which the 31-year-old midfielder has made eight league appearances to date. The right foot is “incredibly important” for Eintracht, continued Toppmöller, who added with a view to the template: “I’m incredibly happy for Mario, because he’s always criticized a bit. Because of his vita, he is under a completely different lens in public.” For Götze it will now be a matter of “getting into the rhythm of the game” again, “then we will have a lot of fun with him.”
