A Nicolas Rossard clarifies the same. “I am no bringer of salvation,” he says. “I just want to help the team.” His help can use the BR Volleys currently, in any case. Because Rossard French national team player – an outstanding Libero. And particularly in the adoption of the Berlin had the least problems. This is also why the German champion is in the table of the Bundesliga only on the sixth place.

Now, Rossard, should help to stop the low blows for the Volleys. The Cup was semi-finals this Thursday against the SVG Lüneburg, Hamburg (18.10 Uhr/live on Sport 1in the conference circuit with the second semi-final) the perfect start for the important games in the next few weeks, says the 28-Year-old: “It is a fresh Start for the club and for me.”

That this reboot is ever so possible in the short term, to problems at his previous club in the Polish first division club Stocznia Szczecin. The club undertook prior to the season, expensive Stars, such as the Polish national team player Bartosz Kurek, and took over. Stocznia Szczecin ran into financial difficulties and had to give players. Therefore, Berlin could access so quickly. “This was a great opportunity for us,” says Volleys coach Cedric Enard. The Frenchman knows his country man in a long time. He worked for several years in Toulouse with him and the national team. “Nicolas is incredibly strong in defence. He moves excelling on the field. So he achieved very many balls,“ says Enard.

As Ausbootung of the previous root-Liberos Dustin Watten Enard’t see the Transfer but. “First of all, I wanted to have 13 players in my squad, to play in Training, with two complete Teams,” says Enard. “Now we also have two Liberos, and not in competition at all positions.” Who will start of the two counter-Lüneburg, he did not decided but still emphasizes Enard. “Dustin has shown in the Training a very positive reaction. I’ve seen that both are ready.“ In the next time between the U.S. national team, Watten and Rossard toggle back and forth, and can’t imagine Enard, however: “I’m going to decide for you, because I want to have a root formation.”

Rossard wants to convey to his new team-mates more self-confidence

Watten comments on the recommitment of a competitor in a surprisingly selfless. “Nicolas’ Transfer is great for the team,” says the 32-Year-old. “No matter, what is the role of the coach for me provides, I’m going to try them as well as possible to be completed. I want to be the best teammate I can be.“ That he has not yet met the expectations in Berlin, Watten. “When I stood on the field, the results were not as we had hoped,” he says. “Because we have as a Team is enormous potential.”

This potential is now to awaken Rossard. “Nicolas always brings a lot of energy on the field,” says Enard. But, above all, the 42-Year-old appreciates his skills as an organizer on the Defensive: “He is structured in super, and feels the football.” Rossard comes from a volleyball family. His father was a national player, his mother, his uncle and his grandfather. “In addition, he takes responsibility, that’s all we need a little bit,” stresses Enard.

Rossard sees as one of its tasks, in Berlin, to give his teammates more confidence. “I’m a positive guy. And I don’t know what’s happened before here in the defeats. This is a good Situation,“ he says. He does not want to back but very much in the foreground. “I see myself on a stage with Dustin. This is a competitive situation, we both benefit,“ says Rossard. “For me, there is no Ranking between the two of us.”

he will now take on more of a invisible the main role, not bothering him as well. “As a Libero, the Fans see not the safe assumptions, but the error. But I can live with that well,“ he says. Ever Rossard is pleased to be able to now alone again in football thinking: “The last few weeks in Szczecin were difficult. Now the game is finally back for me.“
