VfB Stuttgart enters the second round of the Bundesliga with a home match against Cologne with the goal of recovering from a heavy 1:5 defeat on Bayern Munich's pitch. Coach Sebastian Hoeneß's team awaits the match after a demanding start to the season and following the end of the transfer window. sport.sk ↗
Hoeneß spoke before the match about an anxious period at the club. According to him, transfer activity brought increased pressure and uncertainty, with particular mention of Chema Andrés's departure and other changes in the squad. The coach also expressed relief that the transfer window had closed and the team could focus on the league program.
Stuttgart will try to show a reaction against Cologne after the unsuccessful performance in Munich. The defeat to Bayern highlighted the need to stabilize performance, especially after turbulent days connected with changes in the team. The match against the newcomer or a returning competitor to the top division could thus be the first opportunity for VfB to restore calm and rhythm.
Further developments will show whether Stuttgart can quickly overcome a weak start and whether the end of the transfer period will bring greater stability to the team. For Hoeneß, it will be important that attention shifts from squad movements back to performances on the pitch.
