“I’m often asked if the title and the Champions League can’t also be a danger,” writes the Norwegian his column for the “Bild” newspaper. “And if you look at the examples of Schalke, HSV, Stuttgart or Bremen, the question is justified.”
For these clubs, participation in the Champions League was the beginning of a sporting crash that ultimately led to relegation.
“Sure, it’s true: the moment you win a title, you can be happy for a minute,” said the former crowd favorite of the Hessians, who played for Eintracht from 1998 to 2001.

“Nevertheless, I’m not worried because everyone in this team has a great motivation to improve,” wrote Fjörtoft.
In addition, there are people with the right values in so many key positions in the club: “Which means that only players who also represent these values are brought on.”
