The problem are the new players. Union Berlin had previously brought in unknown players. Or well-known players who have not been in the A-Team at the respective club for a long time. They have slowly integrated these players into the team and built them up. With the purchase of Gosens and Fofana, they have broken with this philosophy. They were allowed to play straight away and the players who had always played last season sat suddenly on the bench. That brought turbulence into the entire team. If there is then a lack of success, the first cracks appear in a team-unit that has not grown together.
But now we will see a new coach who will be able to deal with that.
Whatever the worst reason behind Union Berlin becoming a sudden great team to the worst they ever are is something that many are curious about this might be a sudden increase with the other team roster and I could be right about Union Berlin being a fraud and that they are just lucky getting the upper standing last season, for sure Union Berlin was like Leverkusen back then but now the performance has shifted for sure,
With what is happening now, it seems like there is no longer any hope for the Union Berlin team other than them improving this team on a large scale, but I think changing the coach is not something that guarantees changes for the better.
Maybe Union Berlin's management should provide and implement other options to be able to lift this team from its downturn, bringing in as quality players as possible.
But to be honest, I am very surprised by Union Berlin's performance this season, they are getting worse than last season, this is something that rarely happens to teams, they should be able to improve and get better from what happened last season.
I think returning to the 2nd Division of the Bundesliga isn't really bad after all and that will be their faith from that I guess they will regroup again and form a new and stronger team for sure because they are not doing so well in this division maybe this is an opportunity for them returning to the 2nd Division and prepare for the next season on the Bundesliga, and because the other teams have a spark of performance this season I really think Union Berlin can not compete even further anymore,
It definitely too early to decide the champion, so many things have changed in this season just as if they substituted each other, take a look at union Berlin that finished last season in fourth position are now in last position when match is still in 11 game while VfB Stuttgart that were battling not to relegate are now sitting comfortably in third point living behind second runner-up of last season with two points interval and Leipzig in the fourth position have one point in between, VfB Stuttgart performance this season show how serious the want to make it to champion league next season.
You have a point we are now in Matchday 12, getting into it and for sure there will be many who may disapprove of this as there are some that would like Union Berlin to improve instead of kicking the bucket and get back in the 2nd division,
