Markus Kroesche, the boss of Eintracht Frankfurt, believes the team deserves its third position in the first half of the Bundesliga this season. However, the players still have 19 Bundesliga games to prove they’ve arrived as a top team when compared to Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern Munich, RB Leipzig or BVB.
The mission is to finish among the first six and to qualify directly for the Europe cup. But at its core, “we want to achieve the best possible position, the Bundesliga is our most important competition,” he said.
The Eintracht Frankfurt will need all the focus in the world to achieve their mission. In December last year, the team lost four games from five. According to Kroesche, “We were perhaps only 92% focused at the end of the year, which is not enough.”
Apart from focus, the future of Omar Marmoush is also a topic. Will he stay or go? It’s a question without an answer at the moment.
Frankfurt has the potential to achieve their goal and, who knows, they could pull a surprise finish.
