Hertha BSC : Vedad Ibisevic is too old for doubt

Eventually, Vedad Ibisevic is coming to speak on Claudio Pizarro. "What he's doing is extreme," says the captain of Hertha BSC, and after a small Pause, he adds: "I don't think I can do this." Claudio Pizarro charges even at the age of 40 years by the criminal spaces of the Bundesliga. On 14 missions of the Bremen from Peru came in the first half of the season, he scored two goals and had two. He is for the fourth Time at SV Werder. So let's talk about the age.

in the coming August, Ibisevic is not 35 years old, a respectable age for a Bundesliga professional, if he is just a goalkeeper. And in the summer, the contract of Bosniers in Berlin. It is a couple of conversations with Herthas Management are thus: Is there Ibisevic’ last round Hertha, or some of both side on an extension of the job? And if so, to what conditions?

15 Times Ibisevic in the starting line-up

Still nothing is decided, says Ibisevic. Be consultant led talks with Michael Preetz, soon clarity. "Stop, it is still too early," says Ibisevic, the stand all 17 Bundesliga games for Hertha denied, 15 Times in the starting line-up, and constant met – six goals. So many of them, as he had achieved in the past season overall, which he had lost in the second round 2017/18 his place to Davie Selke.

no, says Ibisevic, a doubt, he had not had, "I'm too old". He had prepared in the summer of conscientious and benefited from the violation of Selkes. As Ibisevic came on plenty of time. "I feel good, of course I have to sleep a little longer than in the past." Hertha BSC Ibisevic has taken 102 games and 34 goals in the process. A total of 304 League games for Aachen, Germany, Hoffenheim, Stuttgart and Berlin stuck in his bone. 116 goals he scored, before the great offensive players in the League as Lothar Emmerich (115), Andreas Möller and Jürgen Klinsmann (both 110). He is the fourth most dangerous foreign striker in the Bundesliga's history, ahead of players such as Ailton (106 goals) and Stéphane Chapuisat (105). Only three foreign professionals have succeeded in their careers more goals in Germany's highest division: Claudio Pizarro (194), Robert Lewandowski (190) and Giovane Elber (133).

In the first half of the season Hertha benefited from Ibisevics resilience. For the captain it was quite okay, even if more was in there. You could see it that way, or so says Ibisevic. "We got points where they were not expected, and points, where they were scheduled." Important to the team this coming Sunday to Herthas rear round kick-off at 1 now, the. FC Nürnberg is the same. "I hope we will be awake," said Ibisevic. What I have played, the Team last weekend at the short tournament in Düsseldorf, "was not good".

"I'm naturally ambitious, and the Bundesliga is my favorite League"

Berlin team in the Bundesliga who has the dubious reputation to fight, to be of a chronic back around weakness affected. Manager Michael Preetz had dismissed the team after a pair for a flaccid performances at the end of the first half of the season with a clear message for the Christmas holiday. It is time that the team can get a better back round. The last was the case in the 2009/10 season. This was mainly mind, however, that the team had gathered in what was then the first half of the season only six points. At the end of a descent.

Even under Pal Dardai, which was in February of 2015, head coach, each of the return round of balance sheet weaker than the first half of the season. In his first full season 2015/16, after the first half of the season 32 points and 18 in the back round, it 30/19 followed in the season 2016/17 and 24/19 in the 2017/18 season. Now it is time again to beat the mark of 24-first half points. The question of return has been the weakness of him so often. A correct answer he had not yet found. "We should clean up with this myth," says Ibisevic.

Hertha BSC Vedad Ibisevic is not a small figure

occurs to go If it was up to the 34-Year-old, he would with Hertha probably like to have in an extension. "Of course I'm ambitious, and the Bundesliga is my favorite League," he says. A change in his old hometown of US don't need to be, maybe ever. "I want to enjoy football," said Ibisevic. In the way he wants to but anyone.
