What They're Saying (quotes via the official Bundesliga official website):
Salomon Kalou (Hertha Berlin Striker): "We've not played badly so far, we've just not had much success. When we win a game, the confidence will come back."
Christian Streich (SC Freiburg Manager): "Like Hertha we've only got one point, so a win would be good for us."
