Erik ten Hag reiterated he has no magic wand to instantly improve Bayer Leverkusen after a busy period of outgoings. Leverkusen lost Xabi Alonso, Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong, Amine Adli, Jonathan Tah and Granit Xhaka, with Piero Hincapie linked to Arsenal. Ten Hag acknowledged the Hoffenheim defeat, said the reasons are known, and stated corrections have been made that must now be applied. The club has brought in 15 new players and expects further additions before the weekend. Lucas Vazquez joined from Real Madrid, where he won 23 trophies.
Pressure is always there and we must win. That's clear.
I am no Harry Potter. We will work to take a step forward.
We know the reasons [for the Hoffenheim defeat]. We have corrected it and need to apply it now. We must always win.
One or two things could still happen on the weekend for us and for the whole transfer market. On Tuesday we will know what it will look like.
