Düsseldorf (dpa) - Despite the probably missed chance to return to the Bundesliga, Fortuna Düsseldorf's head coach Uwe Rösler continues to receive support in the club.

However, board member Klaus Allofs makes it clear that patience is limited when it comes to trainers.

“We have patience until we get the impression that there is no longer any prospect of improvement.

In the end, football is also a sport that results, ”Allofs told the Rheinische Post (Monday).

“At some point there comes a point when you have to see whether the measures taken have had any effect.

We don't fix that on a matchday, ”emphasized the 64-year-old.

The coach is not in question.

«We do not want to and will not open a back door to start a discussion about the coach.

We have demonstrated again and again very impressively that we trust him, ”said Allofs.

Nevertheless, Rösler, who has been in office for more than a year, is also under criticism after five games without a win and a nine-point deficit on the promotion places.

You just have to remain realistic in your expectations.

"We cannot expect that we will all play against the wall this season," said Allofs, who does not rule out an extension of the contract with the coach, which expires in the summer.

The talks about a contract extension have been postponed for the time being.

«We have always said that we want to wait and see what direction everything will take.

We want to achieve something together and hope to do it, ”said Allofs.
