Kevin Diks shares thoughts on captaining Borussia Mönchengladbach and leading Indonesia to FIFA ASEAN Cup glory
· Bundesliga-Official
Borussia Mönchengladbach stand-in captain Kevin Diks has spoken about how he gained his leadership skills and what it was like to lift a trophy with Indonesia in an interview with international journalists.
Gladbach have endured a tough start to the season, losing all five of their opening five Bundesliga matches, but that makes it all the more valuable that Diks is remaining philosophical and optimistic.
Speaking to international Bundesliga journalists, the defender said: "I've played so much footbal by now and been in many situations when things are not going your way. You can end up losing a few matches in a row, with a 4-3 here or a 2-1 there, like in the derby [ against Cologne on Matchday 5 ].
