Frimpong: I did things you can not do here

It runs for Jamie Crimping. Also, on Wednesday at the end of the unit when he wins the game at the Rebound Board against Nadeem Amir, Mousse Diary and Daley Sink graven, in which technology and skill are asked.

The triumph, which celebrates the small Dutch people with raised arms, is not his only personal success experience in recent times. On Sunday, the 20-year-old had achieved his first Bundesliga at the 3-1 victory in Leipzig — only shortly after the goal of the host.

It was an important moment in the game against a top team, says Crimping on Wednesday afternoon his premier gate, but emphasizes all joy: We have a long way away from us this season. Which should lead him and his colleagues to a big triumph.

Of course, that's possible, explains the right-back, Leverkusen is a big club. We deserve to play titles. We deserve to win titles. With the team we have, we can win titles. Secure.

Crimping and the greed to titles

Crimping says this with full conviction, even if the good-humored Dutch has a sunny mind. Whether it was easier after leaving the DFB Cup, to triumph in the Bundesliga or in the Europa League, Crimping answers as he plays. Offensive.

Every title would be good. A title is a title. Both to win, would be nice, he says, and laughs to immediately adopt unequivocally that he means it's serious: We want to win things. We do not just want to play things, We want title.

We want to win things. We do not just play. We want title.

Jamie Crimping

From the words of the small defense player, great confidence speaks. He impressively shows this season. His first half year in the Bundesliga was after his transfer from Celtic Glasgow to Bayer, on the other hand, went broken.

It has taken some time until I got used to the league. I came to January last season. For me, it was a big step, explains the U-21 international, which from the seventh year of life in the Academy of Manchester City was trained.

According to Bundesliga change: I had to change everything

The conversion from the Scottish to the German League was gigantic. The biggest distingué is that in the Bundesliga every game is difficult. You can also go against the last games here, and they will deliver a good game. You can never switch off, Crimping describes his adaptation problems, if you give the opponent here Chance, then he uses them directly. I had to change everything.

What was above all about that Celtic throne dwell over most other Scottish teams. At Celtic we had the ball all the time. We did not really have to defend. Only when we played against Glasgow Rangers, Hibernian or Aberdeen, explains the attacking defender.

This footballer cultural shock led Crimping quickly to boundaries at the beginning, which concerns combat behavior and mainly positioning. I did things that I got away from Celtic. But in Germany, of course, you play against much better opponents. These were things you can do here, he knows today.

But Crimping pulled the right conclusions: I adapted, I learned the whole season. And I still learn. Especially in the defensive. And that's exactly fast as the sprinter moves on the square.

The Local and the Right Timing

With his start and his top speed he was long feared in the league. Especially since he usually forms a turbo couple on the right with the similarly small wing-tower Mousse Diary. Four assists in the league and two more in the Europa League testify to his offensive intensity.

These qualities should someday bring him to the Dutch A national team. That this comes so, Crimping is absolutely convinced. I believe in Timing. I have no hurry, he says, I knew, one day I would play for the U-18 national team, one day for the U-21 national team. Because I believe in my skills.

Consequently, he looks only at his performance. I have to show what I can. I have to prove myself, he emphasizes and does not cause any doubt about where this will lead him. Whoever plays for Leverkusen, says Crimping, who will also play for his national team.
