Is a possible appearance on Saturday against Leverkusen in the cards?
Francois Affolter: The anticipation is huge. Of course I am a bit nervous. But I always play better when I sense positive pressure.
Should you play, you would possible meet up with two old colleagues.
Francois Affolter: That's right. There are two Swiss with Leverkusen - Derdiyok and Barnetta. I know both from the national team.
The head coach of the Swiss national team is Ottmar Hitzfeld, someone also well-known in Germany. Did you ask him for his opinion about Werder?
Francois Affolter: Everything went too fast for that. But Ottmar Hitzfeld sent me a text message and said that Werder is a good choice for me.
