Target
Several years ago the main goal for Heracles Almelo was staying in the Eredivisie, but they are aiming for a higher classification on the ranking list now, since they have been a stable factor in the Eredivisie in the last few seasons. A position between 8 and 12 on the league table at the end of the season will satisfy them, as the 6th place at the end of the previous season was simply exceptional.
