There is no such thing as a complete season without lows, setbacks or poor stretches. To overcome that you need a certain sense of realism. "Even if it runs smoothly, some time it will hit you and you are in a negative phase," said head coach Thomas Schaaf. And his team is currently being hit by it – right in the middle of a busy schedule. The Green-Whites needed to accept two painful defeats and six lost points in the Bundesliga within four days. And now the top priority to "keep this phase as short as possible," said the 49-year-old coach.
Top priority: Three points for easing of situation
And the next possibility is the big North Derby between Werder Bremen and Hamburg on Saturday 25 September 2010 on 6:30 p.m. at Weser Stadium. "It doesn’t matter who comes, in principle we have to take care of ourselves and want to get back into the game that everyone enjoys," said Schaaf. Without a doubt, three points would help ease Werder’s table situation, especially in ending the current lack of success.
Which way can the team go to get back on track? "We are not naïve. We will not just sit in the front row and wait and see what happens. We know that we have to defend ourselves,” said Schaaf. “It is important to remain calm." Using the current balance of words, deeds, emotions and objectiveness, "we will use all of our possibilities to improve and win the game against Hamburg."
