Salzburg is gearing up to face FC Porto this Thursday, after going through a negative streak in the Austrian championship: a draw against Blau-Weiss Linz and subsequent losses to Wolfsberger and the current champion, Sturm Graz. The team is six points behind the leader Rapid Vienna in the 1st phase standings, and full-back Lainer called for reflection.
“The frustration is immense. We lost the game and lost ground to the top. We have to pull ourselves together, support each other and rethink some things. We must remain united,” said the 33-year-old right-back, in the aftermath of the home defeat to Sturm Graz by 2-0, quoted by the club's website. “We are absolutely mediocre at this moment,” Lainer also said, in a statement reproduced by the newspaper ‘Salzburg24’.
