Mark Van Bommel and Oliver Glasner have already met. In the summer of 2019, Glasner met with the VfL during the preparation for the then from the Dutch-based PSV Eindhoven. Now the Austrians made the way free for Van Bommel at the Lower Saxony with his farewell to Frankfurt, who should continue the sporty successful way. Last year it was very good, said Van Bommel emphasized at the beginning of his tenure, but I have other ideas as Oliver Glasner.

More ball security under Van Bommel

On the good elements of his predecessor, which built mainly on the pressing and switching game, van Bommel will sometimes continue to put, especially the VfL game in the possession he wants to change. If it could not go forward fast enough under Glasner, the Dutchman short passes, dominance with the ball, game control. A change is reflected after four games that were all won in the figures compared to the previous year under Glasner. The average Wolfsburg ball property has recently risen from 51 percent to 59 percent last season. In addition, the pass quota has increased from 78.3 to 83 percent. Means: more control, fewer errors under construction. There were still 458.3 passports per game under Glasner, so far under Van Bommel 495 Pro Partie.

Further figures that prove a change in VfL football: Under Glasner, the team ran 116.4 kilometers per game in the previous year, currently it is average 109.9 kilometers. The opponent is therefore preferably run. The intensity in the VfL game has removed slightly, it was still 249 sprints per game under Shift fan Glasner, so it is currently only 209. On the aggressiveness, however, nothing has changed: The dual-fighting rate under Van Bommel dropped only a minimum of 50.6 50.3 percent.

No tips of the predecessor

On Sunday it comes to the reunion between Van Bommel and Glasner, for the first meeting in the Bundesliga. A personal handover did not exist before. I do not know Olli, just hit him in the friendly game in Eindhoven, explains Van Bommel, who deliberately renounced predecessor tips. He wanted to meet his new team unbiased.

Glasner in turn knows the VFL best, lasted him in fourth place. Where Wolfsburg, now leaders, may have problems, the Austrian looked at the Wolfsburg Champions League appearance against Lille (0: 0) on Tuesday. He looked, where we can start . Well possible, however, that compared to the king class appearance, as eleven Glasner players stood in the VfL-Startelf, now somewhat the seven new additions runs up. In the so far single duel between Van Bommel and Glasner won in the summer of 2019 by the way, the Austrians - Wolfsburg decided the test at the time with 2: 0 for themselves.
