as the highest goalscorer in the Bundesliga this season.

be able to carry on with their sensational form next season.
“It was nice just being able to watch a Bundesliga match without the usual pressures. The team played really well to take all three points, as well as scoring some great goals. We put together some tidy passing moves and played
a decent game with the pressure no longer on us,” he was quoted as saying in an interview.
On the other hand, the chief hailed Huntelaar on winning the Golden Boot this season. The striker finished ahead of Bayern Munich attacker Mario Gomez with 29 goals in the current campaign. He showered praise on the likes of Jermaine
Jones and Lars Unnerstall and is delighted with the progress of the young players.
“Obviously I'm delighted for Klaas-Jan for finishing the season as the league's top-scorer. He deserves it. Lars Unnerstall also had a great game. All in all it was a positive way to round off an intense but successful season,”
he concluded.
Schalke have finished third in the Bundesliga this season behind the likes of Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich. The side has qualified for the UEFA Champions League after reaching the semi-final last season.
