Fortuna Düsseldorf: A test of the character of Düsseldorf’s mercenary squad | sport

If you don’t understand it now, you are beyond help…

Fortuna Düsseldorf There is a threat of a season in the relegation battle, as the fear of a complete collapse in the 3rd league due to 15th place is real – especially as Markus’ starting team (51st) is not a team in the first 12 games. That should finally change for bottom team against bottom team Magdeburg (Saturday, 1pm/live on Sky).

Test the character of the Düsseldorf mercenary squad!

After the fourth defeat in the fifth opening game, the players in Kiel (0:1) received a merciless reception when the fans ignored them after the final whistle sounded. Captain Florian Kastenmeier (28) also said: “We have to work hard. It’s not about tactical content, but about mentality.” As a reminder: Under the guidance of Daniel Thioune (51), the team has committed to a better future – the results are already known.

However, this group of mercenaries (13 new members, many of them with European experience) gained enormous confidence at the rally. Fans have plenty of reasons to vent their frustration. Instead, the team was greeted with thunderous applause as they left the hall early for practice. Solidarity between supporters and teams – who now have to show how lucky they really are.

Beginning: “I think everyone should let that sink in and everyone’s feelings develop. It has shown, and that’s how I know Fortuna as a player, that the people here are united in difficult times. Alexander Jobst also said that we now have to get through this together, that runs like a common thread. I also feel that people convey that. We now want to make a positive impact.”

And Klaus Allofs (68) gave a clear mandate to the players: “Potential alone is not enough. What matters are virtues such as enthusiasm, hard work, team spirit, a sense of responsibility, a constant will to improve and a hunger for victory. These qualities have made us strong in the past and will continue to be the basis of our success in the future.”

This future must start against Magdeburg…
