Aaron Hunt can't seem to shake of the bad luck. After the deputy captain left training Monday early with adductors problems and was due to return to team training in the middle of the week, Hunt is now dealing with an angina as well and in the worst case could even miss the first match of the second half this Sunday against Eintracht Braunschweig (live in ticker on WERDER.DE).
"Aaron Hunt will return to training on Friday at the earliest. At the moment, he is taking antibiotics because of an angina. It will be tight for the weekend. We have to see day by day how it develops," said head coach Robin Dutt after the Wednesday morning training.
While Hunt was in bed, Dutt worked with a scaled down group of 15 players on the pitch. The rest of the players which included Sebastian Prödl, Santiago Garcia, Zlatko Junuzovic and Felix Kroos went through individual training elements in the catacombs of Weser Stadium. Captain Clemens Fritz meanwhile began his rehab program in Bremen with an easy running session on the training grounds being the first step to his return.
"We split up the group a little bit today. Five players trained indoors. Since we have such a long week of training ahead of us, we had some players go through a regenerative session," said Dutt.
The 15 players who battled with near freezing temperatures outside were in constant movement. After a number of drills focusing on ball circulation, there was a shooting competition to keep warm as well. The Green-Whites keepers were good enough to get a special praise from assistant coach Damir Buric to keeper coach Marco Langner, who was told: "The guys really did a good job stopping shots."
