Bo Svensson sees continued shortcomings despite new FCK win

FC Copenhagen manager Bo Svensson acknowledged the team's hard-fought 3-1 away win over Silkeborg IF, but emphasized persistent issues with their overall play. "We are not well-tuned enough in our game against the ball, and that doesn't just apply to the defense," Svensson stated on the club's website.

We are not well-tuned enough in our game against the ball, and that doesn't just apply to the defense.

He pointed out that Silkeborg was allowed too much space to play into depth, highlighting both structural problems within the team and significant individual errors. Silkeborg took the lead in the first half, and could have scored more goals with greater sharpness. FCK's defense faltered multiple times, requiring crucial saves from goalkeeper Dominik Kotarski to keep the visitors in contention.

Silkeborg was allowed too much space to play into depth, so it's about both the team's structure and that we made big individual mistakes.

Svensson also noted technical errors and unnecessary turnovers in the attacking phase, indicating that much improvement is still needed. However, Elyounoussi's three goals were sufficient to secure the victory, giving FCK six points from their opening two Superliga games. The team also advanced in Conference League qualification earlier in the week and will face Hungarian side Debrecen next.

But also in the forward game, we made too many technical errors with many unnecessary turnovers and passes that are in the wrong place, so there is still much that needs to be improved.
