Under new leadership, Borussia Dortmund are working hard on the training ground to prepare for the upcoming season. Coach Edin Terzic wants his team to rediscover the basics of football, and he’s not afraid to leave out players who aren’t willing to put in the work.
Sahin: We’re here to work, not to play around.
Edin Terzic has made it clear that he expects his players to give their all in training. We’re here to work, not to play around, he said at a recent press conference. Those who neglect the basics won’t play.
Terzic’s no-nonsense approach is a refreshing change from the more relaxed style of his predecessor. Peter Bosz was known for his attacking philosophy, but Terzic is more focused on getting the basics right.
We need to be solid at the back and create chances up front, said Terzic. If we can do that, we’ll be a difficult team to beat.
Players respond positively to Terzic’s methods
The players have responded positively to Terzic’s methods. He’s a very demanding coach, but he’s also very fair, said midfielder Axel Witsel. He knows what he wants, and he’s not afraid to tell us what we need to do.
Defender Mats Hummels added: We’re all working hard to improve. We know that we need to be better than last season, and we’re determined to make that happen.
BVB face tough test in pre-season
Borussia Dortmund will face a tough test in pre-season when they take on Manchester United, Manchester City, and Real Madrid. These matches will give Terzic a chance to see how his team is progressing, and they will also provide an opportunity for the players to build some momentum ahead of the new season.
Conclusion
Kind regards
