How was the game against Mattersburg analysed internally?
Ralf Muhr: The team is self-critical enough to realize that this was a very disappointing performance. Of course, we analysed the match like any other championship game, worked it through and pointed out mistakes. The fact is, this defeat has happened and we can not change that, our focus was mainly on the derby this week.
What are your expectations for the Vienna Derby?
I expect a passionate fight from both teams. The derby is always something very special, with the current standings, the new league mode and the absolute minimum goal of both clubs to be in the upper play-off, this time it might be even more special - and more intense.
How far have the plans for the transfer time during the winter gone? Are there certain positions where you see a need for action?
We strive to work continuously and consistently with the existing squad, because we are convinced of the quality of the players. If anything, there will only be minor adaptations during the winter.
Not long before the end of the fall season, Austria Wien does not meet all expectations in the Bundesliga, in the Cup we are still in the running and with GAK in the quarterfinals we play against an opponent from the third league. What are the goals for spring?
The goals for this season remain absolutely unchanged. Our goal is to secure a place in the European Cup through the championship and/or the Cup. This requires an increase in performance. We are all aware that this fall we have clearly not met our own expectations. We know exactly where there is room for improvement. As a team, we have to play much better and deliver more consistent results. The positive thing is that our minimum goal, to secure a place in the European Cup, is still in our own hands.
How much are you already thinking about the players whose loan contract expire this summer?
This is a constant process of assessing whether the borrowed players can fulfil the high expectations. Cuevas, Matic, Igor and Ewandro have all clearly signalled that they want to stay with Austria Wien. Now it is their obligation to convince us with their performances.
Our second professional team, the Young Violets, finished the fall season on the eleventh place, with 18 points from the first 15 games in the second league. What is your conclusion?
It is confirmed that the club took the absolute right step to implement this rise in the second highest league. The team has fully arrived in the league. It is very positive, that many players from the academy were able to have a first look at the professional football world.
