""We didn't turn up at all for the first 15 minutes and more or less gave the game away," explained the Gladbach coach, who only took over the reins in mid-September. As a result, his team had to deal with conceding an early goal at 1. FC Union Berlin on the last matchday, from which the Foals would not recover."
"For Gladbach, the defeat in Berlin was the most recent chapter in a season that has been one to forget so far. They currently have three points after seven matchdays - the lowest in the club's history at this point in the season. "Only one thing matters to us at the moment: getting out of the current situation. We have to put everything into it together to pick up points," demanded Rouven Schröder."
"With six goals, the Borussians have the weakest attack in the league alongside 1. FC Heidenheim. The problems become even clearer in view of the fact that Gladbach scored four of the season's six goals in the spectacular 6-4 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt. In the clashes with Hamburg (0-0), at Stuttgart (1-0), against Bremen (4-0) and Freiburg (0-0), on the other hand, they failed to hit the back of the net four times."
Eugen Polanski criticized the team's lacklustre start, saying the players failed to turn up for the first 15 minutes and conceded an early goal at Union Berlin. Gladbach lost 3-1, their fourth defeat of the season, and remain winless in the Bundesliga since March across 14 games, falling to 18th place. The club has three points after seven matchdays, the lowest total at this stage in its history. New head of sports Rouven Schröder demanded collective effort to arrest the slide after replacing Roland Virkus. The attack has scored just six goals, the joint-worst in the league, and four of those came in a 6-4 loss to Eintracht Frankfurt. The team has failed to score in several matches and is struggling to compensate for the absence of Tim Kleindienst, who scored 16 league goals last season and has been out since May.
