While he glossed over the FCB performance in the home defeat (0-1) against Servette, Heiko Vogel took away the protective hand of the team after the next debacle in Lausanne (0-3). “I will not tolerate that,” he responded to the once again emotionless appearance – and announced a lecture for Monday’s training: “Clear words will be spoken!”
The FCB players have been providing ample material for thunderstorms for weeks. Halloween isn’t until October 31, but the actors in Red and Blue must feel like the main characters in a horror movie all month long.
Since the beginning of October and the coaching change: no problem. No goals. Crash to the bottom of the table, where you will remain until at least next week. The gap to 6th place that entitles you to participate in the Championship group? Increased from seven to eleven points in October. Only the boldest optimists believe that FCB will be able to reach the top half of the table in the 33rd round. Given the current situation, staying in the league would be a success.
FCB gets what it deserves
All negative scenarios of historical dimensions have never happened before in the history of the Super League. But it’s not just the obvious numbers that are frightening. Further data from Opta and Sofascore prove: FCB is not losing and not taking advantage of opportunities: it gets what it deserves.
In October’s four matches, Basel fired an average of 8.75 shots – the worst value of all twelve Super League teams. 2.5 of those were on target – the second worst score. There were only 0.75 big chances per match – the second worst value. This also applies to the average of 2.5 goals conceded in October.
However, in one category FCB leads the way: 363 passes received per match is the second best value after Lugano. The disastrous offensive record only shows that the players do not know how to start possession.
What is also striking: most statistics were better under former coach Timo Schultz. The coaching change not only brought benefits in terms of results, but also in terms of performance.
