Dialogue with Simon Krivec

The football club Eagles are gearing up for a new season, with their season fully funded, according to the team's new coach, Krivec. The city of Krefeld is currently in talks with the Eagles about the necessary renovations for the Yayla Arena, which will be the Eagles' home venue from next season due to the required renovation of the Glockenspitzhalle.

Krivec has stated that the team's goal is to stay in the league, a challenging task given the close competition. No specific competitors in the battle against relegation were mentioned by Krivec, but it is clear that the season will be a tough one.

The Eagles have had a turnover in the team after promotion, and the coaching team's task, according to Krivec, is to preserve good performances and form a functioning team. Krivec emphasized the importance of the team giving their all in every game, regardless of the number of losses.

The financial situation of the Eagles, as mentioned by Krivec, is one of growth with an increased budget, but with a need to tighten belts in economically difficult times. A small inflation-related increase is likely unavoidable at the Yayla Arena, but the Eagles are trying to keep prices stable for the fans.

Looking ahead, this Sunday, the Eagles are off to Ferndorf, but no specific expectations were mentioned. The Eagles are also considering playing one game in the second round at the Yayla Arena this season.

Krivec stated that the team has shown both light and shadow in their performances so far. He suggested that even the tenth place in the table could still be relegated on the last matchday, indicating a close season.

The Eagles' ambition does not stop at staying in the league. Three years ago, the club aimed to achieve promotion to Liga 2 within three years, and this goal still stands. No other hall in Krefeld meets the criteria for the Eagles' new home venue, making the Yayla Arena the perfect choice.

On a side note, the Philadelphia Eagles will play their home games in the Lincoln Financial Field in the next NFL season, leaving the Eagles to focus solely on their football club.

As the season begins, the Eagles are ready to face the challenges ahead and strive for success.
