Das Überleben in der Regionalliga Bayern wird nicht einfacher, viele Klubs sind ambitioniert und rüsten ihre Kader auf. Wie geht der FC Memmingen damit um?
Richtig, es wird für uns nicht einfacher in der Regionalliga Bayern zu bestehen. Mit der SpVgg Bayreuth ist ein Verein aufgestiegen, der Ambitionen hat. Die Würzburger Kickers planen den Aufstieg in die dritte Liga, rüsten ihren Kader auf und stellen auf Profitum um. Die Liga wird insgesamt ***an Niveau gewinnen***. Darauf müssen wir uns einstellen.

: Like "raise the bar": http://www.si.com/nba/2015/06/17/nba-finals-warriors-stephen... Nothing with "level," please. // To incorporate "raise the bar," you'd have to rephrase, which is why I didn't post an answer.
