Türkgücü Munich: Trainer Alexander Schmidt ennobles newcomer Sebastian Maier
“
The philosophy is that if we get someone, they'll also play in the top ten,
” said Schmidt.
Maier's
lightning debut
in the
0-0 draw
against
Bayern II
was certainly due to the fact that
three midfield players,
Aaron Berzel
(yellow
card
suspension),
Kilian Fischer
and
Philipp Erhardt
, were canceled.
Schmidt trained Maier
as a youth at
TSV 1860
: “He showed exactly what we expected of him.
Strategic skills, an eye for depth, calmness on the ball,
”the coach praised his new chief strategist.

In addition to
Maier
,
Lucas Röser
(on loan from FCK until the end of the season) immediately made his first appearance for
Türkgücü
.
The attacker played
45 minutes with
commitment, wore himself out in the duels and proved his speed in several situations.
“
You could tell that he is very good on the ball
.
He played the chance well, unfortunately the ball only went to the side netting.
He confirmed exactly what I had hoped for from him, ”said Schmidt.
At halftime, Röser was replaced "
because he still has no rhythm
." For
Kaiserslautern
, the 27-year-old only played
160 minutes
in the current season
.
“Basically I don't want to play 0-0, I always prefer wins,” said Schmidt after the second zero in a row.
Next chance for success:
Tuesday in Kaiserslautern
