Seven points from the last three games and a generally quite good development after a season start that raised questions. Things are definitely flowing quite well at HSV at the moment, and the positive development is set to continue.

The Red Shorts have set quite a bit of intention for the away game at RB Leipzig. They don’t just want to sniff at a point. If HSV manage to take something from this match, it would be an absolute coup.

Interestingly, HSV are indeed traveling to Leipzig with confidence. Before the match, they spoke of a major challenge, but also of having quality themselves.

Polzin wants to take further steps with HSV

The overall development of HSV was also a topic at the press conference. As is well known, there have been some noticeable improvements after the first matches. “The process that I’ve tried to describe and convey from the very beginning is of course not complete after matchday 6. We have to continue developing in all areas in order to perform at the highest level,” said Merlin Polzin to reporters.

He also set the course for the coming weeks and months: “We do this because we are very critical of ourselves. That’s exactly the culture we need at HSV and within our team. It’s about getting a little better every day and getting the maximum out of yourself and your teammates. We’re well advised to put things into proper perspective. We know we now have a very demanding match against a very good opponent ahead of us.”

A positive result in Leipzig would, of course, further advance the development mentioned.
