“If you don’t understand it, you’re in the wrong job”: classification captain Abrashi sounds the alarm in relegation battle

class=”sc-cffd1e67-0 iQNQmc”>

Despite a clear performance improvement, GC is left empty-handed. The 0-2 defeat in Winterthur is the fifth defeat in the ninth game since the beginning of this year. The change of ownership during the winter break only caused a touch of euphoria in the area – on the field and on the results board, the record champions have shown a similarly sad picture since Los Angeles FC joined the team as under the Chinese.

One person who leaves his or her life behind on the field for the rankings, regardless of his or her ownership, is Amir Abrashi. Without the 33-year-old, the team occasionally fell to pieces against bottom team Lausanne-Ouchy (1-1) a week ago. With the return of Abrashi to the center of midfield, they improved in terms of play and fighting against Winti. . But simply: GC can’t buy any of it.

Now is the time for the captain to sound the alarm. About fifteen minutes after the end of the match, the ranking players stand on the Schützenwiese in front of the traveling fans. First there are clear words, then the certainty that the curve will continue to encourage the team. Because in Winterthur they proved that they can defend themselves against the specter of relegation.

Abrashi sees problems in the offensive

Abrashi says, “You appealed to our pride. They are right. It can’t go any further down. We don’t have to beat around the bush: it will be a very tough season for us until the end! Relegation battle!”

When asked if his teammates understood that too, Abrashi said: “If you don’t understand it, you’re in the wrong job!” He sees the biggest problem in the offensive: “We are fundamentally stable at the back. And against Winterthur we had opportunities up front. But you have to use it, otherwise it’s not enough.”

Abrashi is evasive when it comes to the trainer question

Just as he complains about the lack of efficiency, Winti’s double goalscorer Nishan Burkart enters the interview zone. Abrashi points his finger at him and says, “He comes in and cleans up the place. And we don’t do that. That’s the difference, that’s why we’re at the bottom. That upsets me!”

GC is not moving forward. Logically, the question now arises for coaching for the Hoppers. Abrashi responds evasively: “That is not my subject. We players have to make sure we bring the performance on the field. We are not interested in anything else.”

Abrashi can only hope his fire spreads to his teammates. Otherwise, the prospects for the rankings until the end of the season are more than bleak.
