Cologne (AP) - coach Markus Gisdol from Bundesliga soccer club 1. FC Köln is considering a more offensive approach than in previous home games in the home game against Werder Bremen on Sunday (3:30 p.m. / Sky).
"That is of course possible," said Gisdol on Friday.
The FC coach was recently criticized for unsuccessfully choosing a defensive approach in home games against Augsburg (0: 1), Hertha BSC (0: 0) or Stuttgart (0: 1).
In the first leg in Bremen (1: 1) it was “a good solution to give Bremen more the ball,” said Gisdol: “But we will of course consider the tactical direction for the next game and not say it was back then so and so."
The possible change could also bring ex-national player Max Meyer, who came in the winter, to the starting XI debut for FC.
The other winter access Emmanuel Dennis could get a break for this.
In terms of personnel at FC, “a lot is going in the right direction, even if that doesn't lead to unbelievable changes in the squad this weekend,” said Gisdol.
Florian Kainz completed parts of the team training, captain Jonas Hector is training with the team "without any problems", and defender Sebastiaan Bornauw has survived his spine surgery well.
“He says he feels like a new person,” said Gisdol: “He no longer has back pain.
Not even if he has to sneeze. "
