Lucien Favre is gone. Now your former neighbor has a voice in BVB. Edin Terzic is supposed to make Borussia work again. You don’t have much time. He spoke to the press for the first time on Monday.
It didn’t take long for him to realize that Edin Terzic’s type is fundamentally different from his former boss, Lucien Favre. The speech of the new coach, who is supposed to take care of Dortmund until the end of the season, is more lively and informative than that of the Swiss. At least that’s how the Menden native introduced himself to reporters in a new role at his first press conference.
They look forward to this cool and carefree boost at BVB. Sporting director Michael Zorc made no secret of what he was missing recently at Favre when he highlighted Terzic’s advantages: “It just shows the necessary emotionality that Borussia Dortmund always needs.” It was nowhere to be seen recently. Neither in the field nor on the sidelines.
From hobbyist to head coach
Terzic, 38, is supposed to bring her back. Your past seems predestined for this. He has been associated with black and yellow since childhood: “I was born 30 kilometers from here and was nine years old for the first time in the stadium. It was clear who my heart beats for. I have been a fan of the club for years.”
Now he can positively influence the performance of his heart club himself. How are you going to do that? Terzic: “There are two ways to win a match: conceding one less goal than your opponent. But I am more in favor of scoring one more goal than your opponent.”
That should get BVB fans to sit up and take note, it finally sounds like a more determined approach to scoring goals rather than getting lost in endless passing relays (crossovers).
For his project, he has hired former U-17 coach Sebastian Geppert and talented coach and former crowd favorite Otto Addo.
Since Favre took office, Terzic has been an assistant coach for the pros alongside Manfred Stefes, who also had to leave. Before that, he worked from 2010 to 2013 in the BVB youth department as an assistant coach and scout.
The first task is called Werder Bremen
But Terzic doesn’t want to turn everything upside down: “We have shown so many good things in the past, we have to remember many things, we have to preserve them.”
Already on Tuesday at the away game at Werder Bremen (starting at 20:30 on the live ticker of t-online), he has the first opportunity to show that the team can do anything more than play the lethargic and uninspired football from the last few weeks.
What makes your new role different from your previous one as Favre’s assistant coach? Terzic: “In terms of content, of course, it’s very similar because the players and I were there before. But now it’s just about deciding things, doing things. Otherwise, I’m still the same size, the same age, well , one day older than yesterday. “
