Union coach Urs Fischer (55) teases Max Kruse (33)!
Before the game against Borussia Dortmund, the coach of the “Eisernen” talks about Kruse.
Ground: The striker revealed on Saturday evening in the ZDF sports studio that the relationship with coach Fischer was no longer the best, especially in the second Union season.
Fischer responded to “DAZN”: “This is the 1st Bundesliga, paid football is not a petting zoo. I think it was all about the minutes, about his substitutions. I am not commissioned to grant wishes. You have to accept that he wasn’t satisfied with one or the other decision, and that’s part of it. “
Kruse had previously said on ZDF on Saturday evening: “For me, the second year was no longer like the first. I wasn’t as happy as I was in the first year. That doesn’t mean the relationship was completely broken or bad. But I imagined something different there.”
When asked about this, Fischer replied before the game against BVB: “Burdened? I can not believe it.”
In his 23 season appearances for Union in three different competitions, he was substituted 18 times in the final stages.
Union’s former striker on ZDF: “As an athlete, you always want to play from the first to the last minute, of course.” He “didn’t understand some things the way others understood them”.
On the penultimate day of the winter transfer phase in January, Kruse returned to VfL Wolfsburg for a transfer fee of around five million euros. The striker already played for the “Wolves” in the 2015/16 season.
Incidentally, the striker gave the reason that he still had to “close an open chapter”.
Hopefully Urs Fischer doesn’t have an open chapter to close with Kruse!
