Unsere Elf ist heute mehr als je zuvor in dieser noch jungen Spielzeit gefordert, drei Punkte einzufahren, denn nach einem zufriedenstellenden Saisonstart setzte es zuletzt zwei Niederlagen. War die Leistung im Heimspiel gegen Borussia Dortmund zumindest offensiv über weite Strecken noch recht ansehnlich, können wir mit dem Auftritt der Mannschaft in Bremen überhaupt nicht zufrieden sein. Das war in allen Belangen zu wenig und nicht im Ansatz der VfL Wolfsburg, den wir alle uns wünschen. Heute muss das Team ein anderes Gesicht zeigen, denn es geht nicht nur um Wiedergutmachung vor unseren eigenen Fans, sondern auch darum, wieder schnell in die Erfolgsspur zurückzufinden. Heute können wir nur bestehen, wenn jeder Grün-Weiße, egal ob Spieler, Trainer, Betreuer oder Fan, alles gibt und 90 Minuten Höchstleistungen abruft. Mit dem FSV Mainz 05 kommt eine spielstarke Mannschaft nach Wolfsburg, die uns zuletzt immer wieder das Leben schwer gemacht hat. In den vergangenen drei Partien gelang uns gegen die 05er kein Sieg, es ist also wieder einmal an der Zeit für die Wölfe, drei Punk- te gegen die Rheinland-Pfälzer einzufahren.
