Coach Merlin Polzin explains: This is my HSV advantage | OneFootball

Things are currently going anything but badly for Hamburger SV. The Red Shorts have picked up seven points from their last three games and are sitting in the upper half of the table. That is definitely a positive to note.

The international break is now an opportunity to analyze the first few weeks and draw an initial conclusion. And that conclusion is largely positive. It’s also a good time to talk to Merlin Polzin. And that’s exactly what Sky Sport did, interviewing the HSV coach.

Polzin showed a certain calmness after the first games of the new season. The coach is pleased that they managed to make some adjustments, which then paid off.

Polzin talks about his HSV advantage

During the conversation, Polzin was also able to identify an advantage he currently has at HSV. “I think my advantage is that I’ve spent a lot of time in my life with HSV, and therefore I can assess the environment and the dynamics here in Hamburg very well. That’s why a North German calmness might help better in some situations here than letting yourself be swayed by emotions in either direction,” said the coach.

He continued: “That’s why we really try to focus on the things we can influence and what we have to do to get better.” HSV has undoubtedly improved over the course of the season. Cohesion is important, Polzin believes.

Not just within the team, but also between the team and the fans. “A lot of people who support HSV are moving in the same direction as us. And the few who don’t, we shouldn’t pay too much attention to them. Otherwise, it distracts us too much from our path,” Polzin added.
