Head coach Heiko Herrlich was unable to call on Charles Aránguiz at the start of the run-in to the important away match at fifth-placed Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday (21 October, 15.30 CET). The Chile international, who suffered a torn muscle in his right calf in the Bundesliga game at Schalke 04 two weeks ago, is still receiving treatment. Captain Lars Bender, Jonathan Tah and Benny Henrichs all missed the start of training this week – all three worked on their own following minor muscular problems but are expected to train with the rest the squad again on Wednesday.
Before the start of an intensive session on finishing, the Werkself spent an hour on video analysis on Tuesday morning. An open session is planned for Wednesday before the final preparations for the game against our rivals on the Rhine continue behind closed doors.
