In addition to the injured trio of Mikael Silvestre, Wesley and Marko Arnautovic, who will not be on hand in London for the Champions League match against Tottenham Hotspur, Petri Pasanen was yet another Werder player not at training on Monday with a viral infection. The Finnish defender is questionable for the game against Spurs and his health status Tuesday morning will decide if he even travels with the team to England.
All the injuries means a number of youth Werder talents such as Clemens Schoppenhauer, Lennart Thy, Pascal Testroet, Niklas Andersen, Onur Ayik, Felix Kroos and Dominik Schmidt will be on the roster for the UEFA Champions League match.
"We have to get back to the attitude that we have to fight for everything. We all have to fight to get out of the current situation," said captain Torsten Frings, who turned 34 on Monday but cannot play on Wednesday due to a red card suspension. The perfect gift for Frings would come two days after his birthday and would be three points from London.
These 20 players are on the provisional roster for the Tottenham match:
Wiese, Mielitz – Pasanen, Fritz, Mertesacker, Prödl, Schmidt, Schoppenhauer, Andersen – Hunt, Marin, Jensen, Kroos, Husejinovic, Bargfrede, Ayik, - Almeida, Wagner, Testroet, Thy.
