Oliver Glasner let his frustration run so free following the final whistle that it might be heard from far in front of the dressing room. And that was apparently just the beginning. When asked if he was really pissed off at his team for the first time, the coach replied Eintracht Frankfurt with a wry smile: “You have a good knowledge of human nature.” And then he added: “The boys have already heard a little something from me and they will certainly hear a little more.”

So Glasner announces a tough week for his players. Understandable. Because following four points from six games in 2022, Eintracht threatens to recklessly gamble away the renewed European Cup qualification. Above all, she worked at 0: 1 on Saturday evening in Cologne strangely uninspired. “We were nice guests,” said Glasner. “We only won a little more than 40 percent of the tackles. I think we have the worst tackle rate in the league.”
Sports director Markus Krösche found the coach’s emotions good: “Dissatisfaction is important now.” But veteran Sebastian Rode warns once morest showing them on the pitch. “We must continue to work with a cool head,” he said. “We must remain a unit and not tear ourselves apart.”
