Oliver glasner is in better voice again. The Eintracht coach caught a cold at the end of the Christmas vacation, which is now subsiding in the sunshine of Dubai. When his commands are heard across the pitch, with which he interrupts the practice sessions to explain to the players how they should behave more skilfully in defensive and attacking scenes, he also has to speak loudly on Friday, because from the nearby mosque the call of a Muezzin sounds calling the local workers on the grounds of the Nad Al Sheba Complex to prayer.
Glasner can do without the interpreter, who is also part of the Frankfurt tour group. After years in the international football business, the Austrian is linguistically proficient enough to quickly switch from German to English so that his words can be heard by every member of his multicultural squad of professionals from 14 countries. Communication with the coach was also “excellent,” said Paxten Aaronson.
