So here it is, Merry.... Nope, not yet. Steffen still has work to do. He comes in, says hello and we're off with the news that there will be 3,300 Unioner in Köln but that, sadly, Robert Skov, Dmytro Bogdanov and the suspended Janik Haberer will not be amongst them.

Asked if Saturday has a greater meaning fater his 2 and half years there, Steffen says that everyone knows what agood time he had there, he's always happy to go back. Of course he's also happy to go there in the hope of an Union victory.

Asked about Leipzig, he says of course it was a weight off everyone in the club. But it's not a great change in atmosphere inside the squad.

Though he says he won't change as a person,his experience as a coach has lead to some changes, maybe he's a little quieter, he says with a smile. He is in a good mood today.

Of Köln,of course, he says, that they'll be hoping for an opportunity, but then he is the same as his opposite numberin this. About the make up of his team, he is giving nothing away, just saying that Bundesliga games are decided in the milimetres.

He's glowing about Köln,the city and the club. I am looking forward to everything around the game, he says. When you've been there... But this one is all about our performance, he says. He wants to win. Nothing changes that.

The fact is that I seea clear development in the boys, he says. He returns to the theme that all games in the Bundesliga are tough, that sometimes thing go your way, sometimes they don't.

He leaves the room having promised everyone that, seeing this development in the side- the most important thing for any trainer, he says - he will have agood Christmas. Here's hoping you all do to. But first... work. See you Saturday. Eisern!
