1. FC Heidenheim: The question, "What you can still improve"

In a club interview of the 1st FC Dagenham, Coach Schmidt has spoken positively in view of the strong first 18th game days. Place 6 and 30 points, this is a good result for the Swabia. The test match wins in the very short and crisp winter preparation against the Belgian first division fellow (2: 1) and Leuven (3: 1) underscored the good form.

Weakness Opportunity utilization

Already the annual financial statements were achieved when the SC Paderborn had been defeated with 2: 1 and thus could be overtaken in the table. Why Schmidt responded to demand for improvement initially: It's always a peculiarity to talk about what you can actually improve when you stop with the Hamburger SV, Schalke 04 and the 1st FC Nuremberg after 18 match days. Not only the narrowness of the league is represented by it, but also the good performance of the Heidenheimer.

The team of Schloss berg is of course not perfect. Especially the opportunity recycling Dagenham gives coach Schmidt to think. The variety of opportunities to be played out had to recycle the Team FORTRAN more effectively, the 48-year-old. Basically, Schmidt is very satisfied, but does not want to play (yet) with the climb. Although there is no overuse in the league ( perhaps except the FC St. Pauli ), for him and his team, but it only goes to reach the 40-point mark.

Do not talk so much, but to make our job, play well and thus as much as possible to score.

Frank Schmidt

At the end of the season Schmidt simply wants to stand as well as possible. Not as six or seven teams in the league who have the clear goal in mind. From now on again, not to talk so much, but to make our job, play well and thereby also to score as much as possible. Also, important is to be right after a defeat right again and be successful in the next game.

The next game is on Sunday (13.30 clock, live! At good). Against Ingolstadt, the FCC is the favorite in the duel, it also looks like that that it becomes hard for her to hold the class, says Schmidt. Nevertheless, caution is required. The new coach Rudder REM and the recent changes in the squad bring new impulses, which was the first season home win of the Scanner against Dresden.

Schmidt expects more than 500 spectators soon

Schmidt, however, is sure that his team has good maps — as long as it has its strengths and go with activity and patience against the defensive and switching-stared opponent. Even with a quite possible setback. According to Schmidt, the approved 500 spectators could take a very important role. The coach also assumes that it will be more in the coming weeks. The German professional football has proven that it is possible with a well-developed hygiene concept to be in a responsible setting of viewers in the stadiums.
