“In the first half we are overflowing and trumped on pace and energy. That should not happen,” Sibum starts in front of the camera of ESPN. The coach, who has been in front of the group since the start of this season at Heracles was shocked by his team.
“It certainly surprised me, because I hadn’t seen this yet,” it sounds. “Not in the preparation and not yet. If you play against a team that is better and has more quality, then you would have to compensate for that with fighting spirit and with other things.”
Heracles has started the new Eredivisie season disastrous. After four rounds, the Almeloërs are stiff at the bottom with zero points. Even in the Euroborg, the tide could not be turned on Friday evening.
“I indicated in the break that this is not the way we want to work at Heracles and that there had to be a response,” says Sibum. “That does not mean that you are going to make six more in the second half. That is limiting more damage and seeing if you can give a reaction. That there is a quality difference between the selection of Groningen and ours is certainly true, but we have to put things against it,” he concludes.
