At FC Schalke there is growing fear of slipping further into the relegation zone of the 2nd Bundesliga. According to reports, an intensive internal team discussion at the beginning of the week should help to overcome the difficult task on Friday (6.30 p.m./Sky) against leaders FC St. Pauli. “It was important for the players to talk about their emotions and thoughts. Everyone should tell the truth to their faces,” said Karel Geraerts. The coach spoke of an important meeting: “I think the players found answers. But we’ll see what it’s achieved on the pitch on Friday.”
Shown in table 14, which is only four points away from a direct relegation zone. If there is no positive reaction to the out of the question performance in Magdeburg (0:3), the patience of even the most loyal fans will probably be exhausted. “It’s always the same scenario that we have pressure in home games. Now we are playing against the best team in the league and we know the situation,” said Geraerts.
The day before, Simon Terodde had expressed how seriously Schalke viewed their sporting situation: “Remaining in the league with Schalke is to be valued more highly than promotion.” The 35-year-old veteran spoke of a “brutal situation” and added: “That Everyone imagined it differently. Everyone got their chance on the pitch but didn’t take it. Every player has to question themselves – me too.”
With the exception of the sick midfielder Tobias Mohr, all of the professionals were available to Coach Geraerts for training. The 17-year-old talent Assan Ouédraogo is not yet an option. “He’s making progress, but Friday’s game is still too early for him,” said the Belgian football teacher.
