SV Werder Bremen plays against Hertha BSC on the 12th match day of the Bundesliga and wants to improve their home record after a black week on Friday (8:30 p.m., DeichStube live ticker).
Bremen – Of course, he could have simply thrown his plans completely overboard and questioned everything at once.
After all, the week before had been anything but pleasant.
But that's exactly what Ole Werner didn't do.
Instead, after three defeats in a row, the head coach of
SV Werder Bremen
reacted as he usually does.
Namely with a pronounced resting heart rate.
"It's my nature that I deal with the situations as they present themselves in an objective manner." Consequently, his players saw each other before the home game against
Hertha BSC
(Friday, 8:30 p.m.,
DeichStube live ticker
) also not exposed to a changed approach in training.
Instead, strength should be regained through constant and familiar processes.
"I believe that this is the path that leads to working well over a longer period of time," explained Werner.

That's a thing with the long term, though.
A large part of the season still follows and of course they want to be successful at
Werder Bremen
, but now the World Cup break is fast approaching.
Only four games are still ahead of Bremen until mid-November, especially the two current duels with
Hertha BSC
and FC Schalke 04 quickly play a kind of key role - after all, it's about remaining in the league against direct competition.
But
Ole Werner
doesn't let that drive him either.
"I think that in this league twelve teams have the goal of collecting the necessary points to stay up.
We're part of that, too," said the 34-year-old.
"
I don't even know what goals for the season were formulated in
Berlin or at Schalke.
The only important thing for us is to collect every point that is possible.
And all our games so far show that it is not a matter of course for us to score points in any of them.” But since the
SV Werder Bremen
coach prefers the glass to be half full rather than empty, he also emphasized: “The good news is that we didn't stand a chance in any of these games and just kept our fingers crossed that the defeat wouldn't be too big.
That's a good sign for us as a promoter."
Werder Bremen vs. Hertha BSC – coach Ole Werner on home weakness: "Goals here are not smaller or larger"
And with this attitude, we are now entering the final sprint before the break of several weeks.
On the home stretch, so to speak.
“They are everywhere.
At the federal youth games as well as in football,” said
Ole Werner
with a grin.
“You know that there is not much longer to go and mobilize the last of your strength.
You have this break in mind and you want to go in with the best possible feeling.” In this case, of course, these are victories.
However, his team has at
SV Werder Bremen
this season, as is well known, their problems with celebrating success in their own stadium.
Things are going much better away from home.
Werner still has no explanation for this.
"You always give everything on the pitch and I think we did the same in home games," he said before the game against
Hertha BSC
.
"It's still good to look at the games in detail and the explanations there for not so good results.
And these games aren't fundamentally different from away games.” Despite this,
Werder Bremen
is currently only penultimate in the home table with four points.
"At the end of the day, the goals here in Bremen aren't any smaller or bigger than anywhere else," emphasized Werner and guaranteed with a smile: "We're still very happy to be there for home games, but we also know that over the course of the season have not scored as away.
But I still don't think there's a rational reason for that - and that's why we're trying against
Berlin
again.” (mbü) Have you read it?
