Robin Koch

And I think there are signs that Adi Hutter is starting to get a bit more consistency out of his side.

Robin Koch is one man I want to give a bit of credit to because I feel as though he was much better the last two weeks, to be honest.

And after that ribbing that he got a few weeks ago against Leipzig when he was taken off at half-time, I think he has shown a reaction and credit to the Kaiserslautern native for that.

I think Elias Baum was good at right back.

I was pessimistic at points, especially in the first half, because it felt like Hart SV had a good grasp on the game.

But in the second half, Frankfurt took over, took a 3-0 lead thanks to goals from Robin Koch, Jonathan Burkhart and Younes Abdel-Talib.

Hart as well did get a goal back and they did get it back early enough to maybe allow fans to think or people like me to dread that they were going to come back into the game but that didn't happen in the end Frankfurt getting a victory the other game where we nearly had a shock or well the game where we would have had the biggest shock Rottweil Sesson against Lornball Roddice Essendon taking the lead in this game in the ninth minute through Lucas Bruma and then sort of being helped further at the end of the first half when Nicholas Seifeld was shown a red card I thought at that point wow it really could be on of course Essendon were one of the sides who shocked us in the first round.

They knocked out Sveita Bundesliga St. Pauli and it looked like they were on their way to knocking out Bundesliga Lornborg.

You've got the cock and the jewel.

So if Robin Cock was managed by Paul Jewell at some point.

Don't think so.

I don't think their paths crossed.

I mean, interesting to me, but not necessarily interesting to the listenership of the this podcast but anyway instead of talking about that let's go into match day six of the bundesliga and a quick rundown of the results we started off on friday night and track frankfurt one kill nil munis ebn al talib with the only goal of the game a big win And perhaps bigger than that, the clean sheet that they kept in this game.

You might remember last week, Robin Koch was subbed off at half-time against Lone Bull, Ardy Hutter, with...

Some strong words for his captain and they seem to have worked because he bounced back in this game and was a lot better.

The whole Frankfurt defence were a lot better obviously they kept a clean sheet.

But especially coming on the back of a 6-0 annihilation by RB Leipzig, I mean, the clean sheet was needed.

You know, Robin Koch put in an improved performance.

I think Brassier was pretty good as well in the game.

As you say, Rory, it wasn't a classic, this one.

But you look at the back of the lineup, and if they hadn't signed Noah Tobolo, they would be in an even worse place.

Robin Koch is the prime example.

Why is there no one to replace Robin Koch in center back? They have one, two, three, four, five center backs under contract at the moment.

One of them is Namandi Collins, who is also actually more of a wingback, isn't he? Brasileir, he was signed as an emergency measure.

Otavio, they found in Brazil, but then, you know, we don't know how good he is.

But they have got enormous problems in defence.

Like, Robin Koch, he's just not improving, unfortunately, for Frankfurt.

And I think, obviously, the bust-up that he...

I mean, Hadi Hüter absolutely slated him last week after the performance and hugged him at half-time.

So, whether we'll even see Robin Koch...

I mean, I'd imagine we would as a player of character, but...

He's not having a good season at all, backing up a very poor season last year as well.

But it looks so exhausting from a Leeds point of view because by this point as well, so when Bamford went off, Tyler Roberts was sort of nominally the striker.

But then Roberts comes off for Robin Koch, who's in front of the back four with Kalvin Phillips.

So there's no one up front.

So whenever Leeds do touch the ball in their own half, there's just no out ball, so it's coming straight back at them and they're just shuffling from side to side to side.
