Hertha BSC hopes on the whereabouts of the Serbs : Marko Grujic: like none

Marko Grujic at first oriented to the right direction of a replacement Bank, then the path to the left and after a sharp curve behind the gang on the Eastern side in the Olympic stadium. The to you only as a Service for – Marko Grujic. If you could believe his words, was gone all what happened on Saturday evening shortly after seven, in the fog of his memory. "It was a special Moment for me," said the midfielder of Hertha BSC. "I didn't know what I should do. The emotions were going crazy.“

to calm him down: After the brief Moment of disorientation – to the right or to the left? – he was running to his own Fans intuitively do everything right. But this is in connection with Marko Grujic not an unusual finding. "He has a natural talent," said Herthas Manager Michael Preetz. "He is instinctively right."

This was true for Grujic on Saturday, when 1:0-victory of the Berlin against Eintracht Frankfurt, not only for the 40. Minute, when Marvin Plattenhardt hit a corner into the penalty area and the Serbian hit send a header for his Team. It was his first goal of the season, his first goal for Hertha, his first goal in the Bundesliga. No wonder Grujic stand in the center of public interest. "He has not identified only because of the goal difference," said coach Pal Dardai on the day after. "He makes our game the difference is this: He is present in the center of the ball, both defensively as offensively. He has a good shot, good in the tackle and concedes the right Moment tactical Fouls.“ Speed, Game Understanding, And The Will To Win "Respect! I am very pleased with it,“ said the Hungarian.

Grujic is only for a year rented

at the end of August, the Berlin rented the 22-year-old Grujic for a season from the Champions League finalists Liverpool FC. Now he not only has an incredible value for the Team, but also a high Standing among his colleagues. "We always talk in terms of complete players," said defender Fabian Lustenberger, formerly in the midfield. "Marko brings with him very much, what you need as a Central midfielder. He has everything: offensive, quality, defensive, stability, and head to the ball game, football elements. I am glad that he is with us.“

Grujic makes Hertha better. With him the team is still undefeated; they lost only in the period in which he was missing due to a ankle injury. "It is not normal that a great player can kick so well," said Dardai. The positive effect of the Serbs on Herthas Cut can also statistically prove beyond doubt. If Grujic stand by the Berliners in the starting lineup, they brought an average twice as many points as without him. In the six encounters in which the Serb played from the start, Hertha, scoring four wins and two draws (2.3 points per game); of the eight matches without him, the Team lost at least three (1.1 points per game).

Here he is after his injury break, not even fit properly. Herthas Manager Preetz sees the Serbian national player at 70, 75 percent of its physical capacity. "Let's see what he shows when he is fit," said coach Dardai. "Then I expect him to still further degrees, because he can, marching from 16 to 16. He is also a goal threat.“

"The best midfield player, the Hertha ever had"

Dardai was asked in the press conference after the game as to how large his hope is that Grujic stay over the summer in Berlin. "It is very difficult to talk about how long he will stay. Our hands are tied,“ said Dardai. "But the Manager will surely do anything for it." The Manager Michael Preetz refused meanwhile, on the side of the wall, and a tired Smile forced. "We should be pleased that he plays a season for us," he said later. Because if Grujic continue as in the past, Liverpool's only one reason for him in the summer not to be ranked – because they have in midfield still much better players. The English should want to sell it, would move the price in the dimensions that would be for Hertha utopian; would like to have the Liverpool FC is, however, more access to him, could he give him again for a year to Berlin.

Grujic himself does not seem to this variant, to be averse. Dardai said that he felt very well and also the team have taken him very well. "The only small Problem is: My English is not the Best," said the Serb. Therefore, he could not talk with the coach so much. "But I have read in the Newspapers, what he said about me. I am very happy.“

Hertha BSC - Eintracht Frankfurt With happiness and Grujic

Why let yourself in for Liverpool FC on a Deal with a purchase option for Grujic, by now it should be quite obvious. And still, A player of this quality has been looking for Hertha for a long time – the man is reluctant to move back. "Maybe he's heard at some point in time. That would be nice,“ said Dardai. "I am now 22 years old here and not want to offend anyone, but I think that a midfield player has had to Hertha BSC. This is not so.“
Michael Preetz took the name Marcelinho into the game. The had been in a different category, "but perhaps can no longer remember Pal to," said Herthas Manager. But he can: "Marcelinho attacker, not a midfielder."
