Bailey talks about his team’s impressive run of eight wins in the last nine games: “Everybody is having fun: the players, the coaches, the staff and other employees and hopefully all the fans too.” And the winger also had a few words to say about our next opponents: “Hoffenheim are a very good team. They were even more commanding than us in going through the group stage of the Europa League. They haven’t been able to show consistent quality in the league but they did demonstrate their class in the wins against Bayern and recently against Augsburg. It will be a tough challenge for us.”
