The final reaction from
Johannesburg - #tsginrsa
Markus Gisdol:
“We had the best training conditions, a fantastic hotel, great weather and absolute peace to be able to work with concentration. The positive effects of training at high altitude are well-known. It increases performance. Therefore lots of other sportspeople use the South African facilities for training. But the most important thing was, as I've said, the reliable weather, good pitches, plenty of peace and god friendly match opponents, like the top-flight club from Johannesburg, Kaizer Chiefs.”
Alexander Rosen:
“We're very happy with the training camp. We had the best conditions in South Africa to put in intense and highly-concentrated preparation for the second half of the season. It went exactly how we imagined it would. We felt very welcomed here.”
Andreas Beck:
It was a training camp of the highest standard. It was about fine-tuning, we always have to adjust and the days here brought us a long way. The terrific conditions of course helped our concentrated work a lot. Furthermore the mood is: We don't have to find ourselves here. We know ourselves, many for a long time and are sure of it. The characters fit together well and you can feel that too.”
Kevin Volland:
They were long, hard days with two or three sessions a day. We had to dig in deep but you're expected. Training camps are brutal work. We've done a lot and have, in my opinion, have come on a further step.”
