| | | Do it one more time, Tamas! | | | | [27.08.] Jürgen Klopp knows from experience that certain teams suit players better than others. Eintracht, for example, suits Tamas Hajnal. And that´s why the Hungarian travels to Frankfurt "with a good feeling". After all, last season the BVB playmaker was involved in every goal against the Hessian team, scoring one and setting up the other five! | | |  | | Tamas Hajnal against Frankfurt’s Meier. |
In the build up to Saturday´s away game in Frankfurt (1530 CET, live on Netradio) Jürgen Klopp stated that he hopes that Tamas Hajnal, with this remarkable streak in mind, "will take a positive attitude into the game and that the memories from last season will spur him on to another great performance."
For Klopp, who describes Hajnal "as a bit to self-critical", the Hungarian and the rest of the team are on the right track. "Along with Kuba, his outstanding runs have helped us to create so many good chances against Stuttgart."
Borussia Dortmund started the season with a win, a draw and a loss. For Klopp this is not that unusual. "Our start to the last season wasn´t really a revelation, either. You notice that you have to start every season from scratch. We are not quite on top of our game yet, but I´m hopeful that we can sort this out!"
Frankfurt are still unbeaten this season, and picked up five of possible nine points so far. And so Klopp expects "a confident team due to their recent good form", and also a team that has under former BVB coach Michael Skibbe beefed up their long-lost attacking forces, | | Klopp and Hajnal |
though the Eintracht coach is forced to make changes to his defence due to Ochs´ suspension. "We want to pick up where we left off against Stuttgart," said Klopp who had Frankfurt watched closely and who noticed "differences in the system." He said, "At home they played a clear 4-4-2 with a diamond." But he will certainly not bank on it, particularly since Skibbe loves to change tactics.
But the Frankfurt coach will surely not only think about Eintracht´s offensive options, but also contemplate on how to defend against BVB´s attack, for example against the pace of Kuba. The Polish player was forced to sit out training on Tuesday and Wednesday with groin problems, but expects to be fit again on Saturday.
Oh, and before we forget. There´s also Tamas Hajnal who Frankfurt surely will keep a watchful eye on...
