Schaaf praises the Werder fans
Posted by werdernews on April 8, 2008
Finally an end to Werder’s negative run! Finally a win again in the Bundesliga! The away win against Hertha BSC Berlin at the weekend saw the Green-Whites form curve take an upward turn and that which has clearly relieved coach Thomas Schaaf: “It’s very important for all of us to experience some success again following the criticism we have had to endure due to our more recent results. It’s a nice feeling and it does us good whilst helping us along our way”, said Schaaf.
Schaaf did have to admit though that not yet everything is running totally smoothly: “We can’t afford to paint everything rosy now. We must continue to work well and intensively.” And that is all the more important now that the visit of FC Schalke 04 to the Weser Stadium is looming. The ‘Royal-Blues’ are a direct competitor for one of the Champions League qualifying places.
Schaaf went on to heap praise on the almost 12,000 fans that made the trip to Berlin for last Saturday’s game: “That kind of support is exemplary and vitally important to the team”, acknowledged Schaaf.
