Dynamo Dresden: Coach Stamm sees room for improvement before the start of the season!

Dynamo Dresden looks back at the halfway point of summer preparation and coach Thomas Stamm has a mixed feeling. After four test matches and an intensive training camp, he names both positive aspects and points that still need improvement. According to onefootball, the team's work ethic is commendable, but the stress in the games so far has not been entirely unproblematic. An intensive final training session before the duel against Slavia Prague had left its mark, which was reflected, among other things, in a weak second half in which Dresden conceded four goals.

However, Stamm himself remains calm and sees no reason to panic. “We have to work on the intensity and the sprints,” he explains, while at the same time being optimistic that the team is on the right track. There are still a few weeks left to prepare for the start of the season in Fürth in order to further consolidate the team dynamic. Fair competition within the squad is seen as a key success factor, and Stamm emphasizes the need to eliminate potential coordination problems.

Injury problems and their meaning

A downer in this preparation phase are the injuries to goalkeeper Tim Schreiber and talent Jakob Zickler. Schreiber is struggling with lower leg problems and Zickler had to leave the field with a shoulder injury after just 19 minutes in the game against Prague. “I hope that the injuries are not serious,” says Stamm. Fortunately, apart from an appendectomy for Niklas Hauptmann, there were no other serious injuries in the team, which is positive news for the coach, who is paying more attention to dealing with the risk of injury to his players.

In the world of football, there are numerous factors that increase the risk of injury. According to sportaerztezeitung, it is extremely important to take preventative measures. One of the injury prevention models that has proven successful is the multifactorial approach, which also includes the latest findings in the field of neuromuscular training. This could also be an advantage for Dresden to further minimize the risk of injury.

The look forward

With intensive training that gradually promotes load control and the integration of young players, Dynamo Dresden aims to be optimally prepared for the coming season. The next few weeks will be crucial to eliminate the deficits from the previous test matches. Coach Stamm is optimistic and sees the chances that the team can further improve their fitness and rhythm of play.

Things will get serious for the Black and Yellows in just 19 days when they face Fürth - a game that has all the signs of an exciting phase of the season. The competition and the integration of talent could make the difference and help Dynamo stay high. One thing is clear: the team still has a lot of work to do, but the signs point to progress.
