BVB bosses praise Meunier – advice from Zorc

Those responsible at BVB have praised the resurgent Thomas Meunier. Sports director Michael Zorc also gave the right-back advice.

“Thomas is showing a different face this year. He has big plans for the season personally and has had a significantly greater influence on our game in previous games than last season. That can already be measured by the scorer points alone,” said licensed player manager Sebastian Kehl im kicker quoted.

Meunier had disappointed heavily in his debut season for BVB. In the current season, the Belgian has already been in the starting line-up eleven times and prepared three goals, although he was thrown back several times due to minor injuries and a corona illness.

Meunier also convinces with a high running quota and good duel values, as Kehl commented positively: “In terms of his basic disposition, he is someone who has the engine to walk at high intensity and to run a lot; someone who has a physical presence. He works hard to improve and lives very professionally. “

Coach Marco Rose struck in a similar notch as the future sports director of Dortmund. “Thomas is an important factor for us at the moment. He is developing really well. He brings us momentum, he gives us power, he has speed, he defends well and hits good crosses,” he said.

The outgoing sports director Michael Zorc also gave the Belgian international, whom he signed for free from Paris Saint-Germain in 2020, a recommendation that would make him even better. “Thomas is very self-critical, sometimes even a little too much. He would be good to be relaxed,” said Zorc.
