It was a difficult campaign for Furth last time out under both Kleine and Vogel, but they narrowly avoided the drop with victory over Essen in a relegation play-off. The Cloverleaf have hit the reset button in the summer with many changes to the squad. The first was to secure tenacious midfielder Paul Will on a permanent basis after a solid loan spell in the second-half of last season. Furth conceded the most goals in the division last season so an upgrade was needed in defence. Heuer is experienced at this level and Hungarian Keresztes on loan should be a solid addition. Youngster Dal is also likely to be a promising backup. Appelkamp and Pohlmann should add creativity from midfield while young winger Wallentowitz on loan from Schalke has potential to shine. Top-scorer Futkeu has left for the Bundesliga so it's difficult to see where the goals are coming from, Benjamin Zank is the only attacking signing so far and is unproven at this level, he could also miss the start of the campaign through injury. Furth will be looking to improve under Vogel and should be stronger, especially in the midfield area, but a lack of leadership could make them vulnerable after the loss of captain Hrgota and senior figure Green.

Target


Mid-table. Furth will be aiming for a much-improved campaign, a good start will be crucial otherwise it could lead to another relegation tussle.
