Werder Bremen BILD analysis The bitter truth about the Werder squad sport

The 1:7 in Cologne was an isolated catastrophe, so what's wrong with Werder?. Frank Baumann, the team's manager, summarized his team's appalling performance in "Die Lage der Liga" (BILD live) by saying, "We let ourselves be slaughtered.".

Ole Werner (34) has suffered his fifth defeat in the last seven games, which is the worst loss of his coaching career. Due to the fact that deficits are now readily apparent, Bremen's trend is downward.

The unpalatable truth about the Werder team andgt;. Werner, who has few options, was the coach who sent the fewest players onto the field.

The issue: The second row doesn't provide any momentum for the starting eleven players. Attack scenario: If Ducksch offers a weak phase, as it did the previous time, missing a good storm alternative.

Dinkci is overmatched in the Bundesliga; in Cologne, Scot Burke wasn't even competent enough to serve as a substitute. There are no additional options.

Example in the middle: Jens Stage, who cost 4 million euros, ends up being a costly and major letdown. It appears that Werner's system has still not been fully internalized by the only player who has paid.

Example of a defense: Tony Jung, who is competing for a new contract, is sagging on the left, and Talent Buchanan, who is from England's second division, isn't really an option. The defense was held together during the promotion season by Captain Toprak (now Antalyaspor), but the obvious leader is no longer present.

Friedl, the successor who had a disastrous performance in Cologne, is not happy with his own performance: "There is still a lot more to do. In the Spain training camp, Werner noted that there were few alternatives available: "Our squad is not huge.

Several of the team's players have recently returned from long-term injuries or haven't played frequently in the Bundesliga. He hoped for reinforcements, but Baumann rejected that.

The climber lacks the necessary funds. Bremen's lineup is obvious, so Cologne coach Steffen Baumgart was able to confidently reveal his starting lineup two days prior to the match.

Baumgart: "Ole does it similarly, with the exception of one spot where the lineup is already established. Werner is generally not a fan of frequent personnel changes.

Predictability is also increased by the issue of the described lack of alternatives. This holds true for the fundamental formation as well.

Werder utilizes an aggressive and risky 3-5-2 lineup every single game. There is not enough qualified defensive personnel on the right side for the switch to a back four.

"The people of Cologne knew from A to Z what we were doing," Leo Bittencourt said after the game, making people sit up and take notice. The professional boss of Werder doesn't want people to interpret this as a compliment to Werner.

Leo's statements don't make sense to me as criticism of the coach, Clemens Fritz said. For the rest of the season, we won't experience any issues related to the alleged predictability.

Werner's coach admits that he sees nothing wrong with being able to be read by the opposition, but the question still remains: can Werner be deciphered?. "I don't think that knowing before the game how the opponent played was decisive," said Werner following the Cologne match.

We also had comprehensive knowledge of Cologne. There was absolutely nothing unexpected about it.

Simply put, they performed it more skillfully. The deciding factor is that.

On Wednesday at 8:30 p.m., Werder needs to perform better. m.

in opposition to Union Berlin. Otherwise, it descends even further.

Example of a defense: Tony Jung, who is competing for a new contract, is sagging on the left, and Talent Buchanan, who is from England's second division, isn't really an option.
