http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marko-Arnautovic-c24157 returns for Werder Bremen- Bundesliga news
Werder Bremen will be without start striker Claudio Pizarro for the weekend clash against FC Koln. The striker suffered a foot injury in the recent Bundesliga match against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/1-FSV-Mainz-05-c38166 which Bremen won 3-1 and is struggling to recover.
The club will, however, welcome the return of striker Marko Arnautovic for the clash as he will aim to fill in the boots of Pizarro.
Die Werderaner will face a confident FC Koln side, who are flying high after a 3-0 win against FC Augsburg last week. The club has had an impressive start to the season and is currently sitting in fourth place with 20 points, five
points adrift of leaders Bayern Munich. The team has won six out of the 11 games played and suffered three losses in the process.
Bremen manager Thomas Schaaf admitted that Claudio Pizarro could be a major doubt for Saturday’s fixture as he is still recovering from the injury he suffered last week. He added that the injury is not as bad as expected and the
player will have to go through a late fitness test.
“He took a knock and his foot has swollen a little, but I don't think that it is so bad. We will just have to wait and see,” the boss was quoted as saying in an interview.
Meanwhile, Werder Bremen will be relieved with the return of former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Twente-c39233 winger Marko Arnautovic, who returned from a three match suspension. The player admitted that he is happy to be back and is looking forward to making
his mark in the next match.
The Austrian international is hopeful that he will be able to fill in the boots of Pizarro and lead his side to all three points. He wants to prove his worth and added that his hard work in the last few weeks will surely pay off.
“I am delighted that I don't have to sit in front of the television anymore and that I can now help the team on the field. I have to give 100% in training and convince the coach to field me on Saturday,” the player added.
Werder Bremen will face FC Koln at the Weserstadion on Saturday, November 5.
