The Hamburg manager has set his sights on UEFA Champions League in two years time and is impressed with the progress of his side.
Hamburg are definitely back on track after a dreadful start to the season and Thorsten Fink deserves all the credit for the team’s impressive revival in the last three months. The manager has uplifted the spirits of the team and
pulled them out of the bottom three since his arrival in October.
Fink claimed that Hamburg have traditionally been one of the best teams in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 and deserve to play in the UEFA Champions League. He insisted that one of his main targets is to bring the team back in Europe so that they can
compete with some of the best teams of the continent.
The manager has a plan and he is aiming to play in Europe’s elite club competition in the next two years. The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Basel-c39079 boss is yet to taste defeat in the league since his arrival at Imtech Arena and faces a tough test against
Borussia Dortmund when the Bundesliga resumes this weekend.
“Mediocrity cannot be the demand of Hamburg. It is also not mine. We must again eye qualification for international football. In two or three years we want to target the Champions League,” he was quoted as saying in an interview.
The former Bayern Munich midfielder has praised the performance of the team in the friendly games played in the winter break and admitted that these fixtures help in maintaining the fitness levels of the team. Rothosen defeated
Spanish side UD Marbella 3-0 in a friendly match last week as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tolgay-Arslan-c35213 scored a brace and Zhi Gin Lam scored once.
“The friendly games give us a good chance to put our training work into practise. The lads have done well on that front at times,” he concluded.
Hamburg currently sit in 13th place with 19 points from the 17 games played thus far. Thorsten Fink will be looking to maintain his unbeaten run in the league against Jurgen Klopp’s side this Sunday at home and will
be hoping to get all three points to climb up the table.
