SV Elversberg‘s story has been one of the best in German football over the last couple of seasons.
Starting out in the fourth division, the Regionalliga, CSO Nils-Ole Book took the club to multiple promotions with head coach Horst Steffen.
During these seasons, the team consisted of a strong core that was well complemented by many loan players, like Nick Woltemade, Paul Wanner or Fisnik Asllani.
The story nearly had a perfect ending last season.
After a fantastic season, Elversberg finished third in the league and qualified for the Bundesliga play-off, but fell short to 1. FC Heidenheim and Léo Scienza, despite being the better team over the two games.
When it rains, it pours.
Manager Horst Steffen and his assistant coach, Rafael Duarte, left the club for Bundesliga club Werder Bremen.
Both full-backs left the team, with Elias Baum having to return to Eintracht Frankfurt and Maurice Neubauer moving to Hannover 96.
Their starting double-pivot also left, with Semih Sahin joining Kaiserslautern and Robin Fellhauer joining FC Augsburg in the Bundesliga.
Additionally, their attacking duo, Fisnik Asllani and Mohammed Damar, had to return to their parent club, 1899 Hoffenheim.
With these departures, everyone expected Elversberg to end up in the relegation battle, but after eight matchdays, Elversberg head into the international break as the league leader in 2. Bundesliga under new coach Vincent Wagner.
In this Elversberg tactical analysis, we will examine how Elversberg play this season and how Wagner’s tactics are helping them achieve success.
In the first part of the article, we will examine their approach in possession and how they create progressiveness and goalscoring opportunities.
Then, we will quickly examine their work against the ball.
