Struber: “Hunger and desire from the start”

8/8/2024

On Saturday, 10th August, 1. FC Köln have their first away trip of the 2024-25 season. FC take on SV Elversberg in the URSAPHAM-Arena at 13:00 CEST. Here are the most important quotes ahead of the game from Head Coach, Gerhard Struber and Head of Football, Thomas Kessler.

Gerhard Struber on…

…fitness: “Mark Uth is ready to play. How long he can play for, we’ll have to see. He is fit enough to play. He is another option, especially when it comes to his finesse and cleverness in the final third.”

…the opposition: “We know that the opponent has a lot to give, like to play football and play football well, can win at home against big teams and like to have a lot of the ball.”

…his expectations for the team: “We are tasked with putting in a performance that pushes the possibilities of earning three points into the immeasurable. We have to be in control at all times, be engaged and invest everything. Then it won’t be easy for the opponent. We want to take the next step. We want to score goals quickly and that means showing that hunger and desire from the very start.”

Thomas Kessler on…

…the challenge Elversberg pose: “The players are focused and that is exactly what we need in Elversberg. There we’ll experience what the 2. Bundesliga has to offer for the first time. We need to put in a good performance to take something from the game.”
