RB Leipzig go into the international break with plenty of confidence. Coach Marco Rose's team are still unbeaten in the Bundesliga and have the best defense so far, conceding just two goals. Managing director Marcel Schäfer reported after the 1:0 (0:0) win at 1. FC Heidenheim that the past few days gave him an "extremely good feeling". The 40-year-old did not call for an attack on the championship, but he once again underlined the club's ambitions.
"Of course" RB wants to "compete for titles" and "get the maximum out of each individual player, but also out of our team and our club", Schäfer explained. "It's too early to say what that maximum will be." Many factors will play a role: Whether the team gets into a flow, whether they are spared any major injuries or how quickly the new signings integrate fully.
