BUNDESLIGA - Eintrachtack to the triple chain with system maker Kostic?

Published on: 16 September 2021

“We used the days to regenerate, draw our conclusions from the Stuttgart game and prepare for the game. We are well prepared. The boys are fit. We expect Fenerbahce in a 3-4-3, ”dictated Oliver Glasner into the microphones yesterday Wednesday at the press conference before the Europa League duel against Fenerbahce. It is quite possible that the SGE will also respond with a 3-4-3 line-up.

Since there is a big question mark behind the operational capability of left-back Christopher Lenz, Glasner has almost no choice but to return to the back three in defense due to the failure. At the same time, in the 3-4-3 system, the strengths of the now pardoned Filip Kostic would come into play much more effectively.

The power and dynamism demanded by Glasner make the 28-year-old left foot look almost set. A large part of the 75 scorer points for Eintracht go to the flank expert as a track player on the left. Under ex-trainer Adi Hutter, Kostic acted almost exclusively as such. The problem: Since Glasner has been at the helm, the triple chain has not been successful so far.

A hefty 5-2 defeat against BVB and the embarrassing 2-0 defeat in the DFB Cup against Waldhof Mannheim are proof of work in the current season. On the other hand, Fenerbahce, who remained unbeaten in all six competitive games this season, have not met a team that also played in 3-4-3.
