From Flying Kiwis. Singh will probably enjoy a change and a run around with the AWs in June.
Where have all the cool Sarpreet Singh highlights been lately? There haven’t been any, that’s where. When he initially got back from his injury (and was finally registered) he popped up with a few goal contributions and seemed to be picking up where he left off prior to getting hurt. But Regensburg have been so poor this season. Singh had some unlucky breaks with shots off the woodwork, being fouled by the last man, that kinda thing. All the while his team continued to lose games whilst doing seemingly little about it.
They probably should’ve sacked coach Mersad Selimbegović months ago given how steadily they kept sinking down into the relegation battle. That only finally happened last week following consecutive losses in which Singh was subbed off at half-time... and even then seems to have been as influenced by a falling out with the technical director than it was by the results. American coach Joe Enochs has been hired in his place, his most recent job was at FC Zwickau in the third tier (he was fired in February) having previously spent two decades as a player and coach at VfL Osnabrück. That’s him with his hand on Sarpreet’s shoulder in the pic above.
A very ambitious hire, that’s for sure. Enoch’s first game in charge was at home against Hamburger with the Reggies knowing they really needed to spring an upset to have any chance of even sneaking into the relegation playoff. Automatic survival would be officially goneskees with anything other than a win. Then Arminia went and beat FCK with a 97th minute winner to make the task even more desperate for Regensburg by extending the gap above them to five points.
What Joe Enochs did was he dropped Sarpreet Singh to the bench, not even using him as a substitute, and his team lost 5-1. They were 3-0 down after half an hour. Could be that Singh was dropped because he’s not coming back next season or it could be to do with the formation switch and wanting more defensive wide players (they went with the stock standard 4-4-2 so not a great fit for Singh). However on recent evidence he probably wouldn’t have made a difference. This team is bad. With two games left they’re five points adrift from even having a playoff’s chance of staying in the second tier. It’s not happening.
Singh’s luck with loan spells has been awful, the bro can’t catch a break. In three years he’s had six good months the first time with Regensburg and then he got injured (which eventually cost him a transfer to Werder Bremen). He never found a fit with Nurnburg before cutting that one short mid-season. Then there was also the registration drama earlier this term followed by relegation murkiness which has minimised Singh’s best attributes. Not sure what the future holds but thank the eternal spirits that it won’t be at Jahn Regensburg... and pray that there’ll be no more loans either.
