- Reese acknowledged Wolfsburg have made a strong start to the season with seven points from three league games and accepted the club’s favorite tag in the 2. Bundesliga.
- He warned that promotion is not automatic, saying the team must build a spirit and cohesive squad rather than rely on having the most expensive roster.
- The transfer drew public criticism when it happened in the summer but Reese has publicly defended his choice, a development that raises pressure on Wolfsburg to convert early form into results and on the squad to show unity.
