Defensive problem zone: Salzburg muddles up to become the winter king

Many games are like each other like eggs. Marsch sees it that way too. “It was almost the same situation as in the Sturm game. We played well after half-time and then we got two goals from our left flank in the transition game, ”said the American on Sunday. His team’s ability to learn seems limited. The defensive problems ran like a red thread through the autumn. Individual and tactical mistakes take turns. The defense lacks a lot, but one thing in particular: a boss. In spite of all his qualities, neither is Andre Ramalho.

It is practically impossible that Salzburg will have one in the near future. Sports director Christoph Freund will remain true to his philosophy and also bring in defensive talents, but not ready-made players. The young players who were most recently committed to central defense have not developed significantly. Max Wöber, who cost more than ten million, and Jerome Onguene, who came down by around two million, took a step back rather than forward. Oumar Solet, who was brought in at least 4.5 million euros in the summer, you can still see the lack of match practice and the physical deficits. The 20-year-old Frenchman missed the entire first half of 2020 at his ex-club Lyon due to a torn cruciate ligament.
