The Werder players are still coming to terms with the defeat against MSV Duisburg but the team are hoping to rise from the negative experience of last Saturday with some re-discovered strength. “Of course it’s bitter as a footballer to go through such a phase, but, in my opinion, the experience that you take from something like that is important too”, explained Per Mertesacker in an exclusive interview with WERDER.TV.
“We are not about to disarrange our targets just because of going through such a phase. I truly believe we will find ourselves as a team and prove our determination to change the current situation as a team”, remarked the lofty centre half, who is still convinced of his side’s strength: “We have a massive amount of potential within the team. Although we had problems earlier in the season, we managed to get a grip on things”, added Mertesacker as he reminisced on the 36 points and second place in the table going into the winter break.
With plans afoot to return to former success, this weekend’s game in Berlin could hardly come at a better time. Is the match against Hertha BSC the key? “We have been working very hard in training, that you can believe! We intend to go there and present ourselves as a team”, concluded Mertesacker, who added for good measure: “A successful team!”
