Fjörtoft: Eintracht is not expected to crash in the Bundesliga
Ex-Eintracht professional Jan Age Fjörtoft does not expect that his ex-club could get into relegation difficulties by participating in the Champions League in the Bundesliga. “I’m often asked if the title and the Champions League can’t also be a danger,” writes the Norwegian in a picture column on Wednesday. “And if you look at the examples of Schalke, HSV, Stuttgart or Bremen, the question is justified.” For these clubs, participation in the Champions League was the beginning of a sporting crash that ultimately led to relegation. “Sure, it’s true: the moment you’ve won a title, you can be happy for a minute,” said Fjörtoft. After that you are already the hunted, who has to defend the title, who has to improve to keep the level.
