According to Andreas Bornemann Knoop likely will follow Hürzeler but it is not yet sure. He had been asked during the presentation of our new coach Alexander Blessin. Nemeth will stay with us.
This is exactly how many on our side feel. But there is certainly a huge difference in salary (triple I wpuld estimate) and maybe Brighton is exactly the one club which could take him from us.

We were placed high because of the run we had under Hürzeler the season before. But from which time are these figures? There were two heavy weight relegated teams with Schalke and Hertha BSC. During pre-season those were the favorited teams for promotion.
