Gladbach sports director Max Eberl took a position on Saturday evening on Borussia’s sporting downturn and spoke plainly. He made the players especially responsible.
in the Current gym Eberl was invited as a guest and vented his displeasure with the recent performances of his team. “It banged in the last few days. But it didn’t help,” said Eberl about the preparation for the Saturday game in Leipzig – but Eberl didn’t want to provide a precise diagnosis of the problem.
“We know more than we tell the public. We have to point out the mistakes internally, because a lot of them are happening at the moment. The game against Freiburg wasn’t a normal defeat, it was a turning point. I haven’t seen that before, and neither have the players not, that gnawed at us. “
Eberl: “‘Worrying’ is a good adjective”
Gladbach had recently conceded three claps in a row with a goal difference of 2:14: After a 1: 4 in the derby in Cologne, it was 0: 6 in front of their own audience against Freiburg, before Gladbach went down again on Saturday at the crisis summit in Leipzig . Gladbach slipped to 13th place after the seventh defeat of the season, the lead on the relegation rank is only two points.
“That shouldn’t happen to us,” said Eberl and also alluded to the goals that were conceded late to ultimately make it 1: 4 in Leipzig. “Today we threw everything upside down again in a completely confused way.”
He has never experienced three defeats with this goal difference. “‘Worrying’ is a good adjective for it. The players don’t get the quality on the pitch. We struggle with that, and so do the players. Nobody defended like you have to defend in the Bundesliga. The players have to do that question “, said Eberl.
“We have to show eggs now!”
“I don’t want to see anyone pointing at someone else. Instead, everyone grab their own nose! The team has to implement the issues on the pitch that are given by the coaching team. We’ll address mistakes and, to some extent, honor the players appeal. We have to show eggs now and stand in this wind! “
In the current situation, he has time for the upcoming contract talks with the players, whose contract will expire next summer. “At the moment I don’t really care about individual fates. Until June 30th, I can expect every player to perform for the club that pays him.”
