Werder Bremen: Klaus Allofs fights against common mechanisms

Now they come also. Were fed through here again. This was to be expected. Now they are just fed by others, from television, from the leaves with the big letters. Mario Basler says this, Uli Borowka says that. Even Dieter Eilts, the good one. There must breathe deeply and Klaus Allofs yet maintain one's composure.

He is accustomed to the storm and the gray clouds, Bremen is not Marbella and the North Sea coast not the Costa Brava. Even climate. But what happens to him now that is at least used to, "which has a different quality." On the justification argue he does not like, "sure, we are international not, are we out of the Cup kicked out, and place 14 in the Bundesliga, all 19 points in the preliminary round, which is certainly an unusual situation.

"An embarrassment to say he would actually. Now Werder Bremen has always been an exceptional club, even in bad times here, no one has made rampage, it was never the head coach called for, and certainly not the manager. The calm, at least the one who carries the head now hanging on his shoulders, he hardly needs to fear for his job.

The calm, at least the one who carries the head now hanging on his shoulders, he hardly needs to fear for his job. "For us, the usual mechanisms are not," said Allofs anywhere mantra. Current mechanisms that are in league with prolonged failure of the trainer and continued kicking helplessness and inaction, both see Cologne, is the manager for debate.

But one must be to blame but now, one must believe in it, that's always been so, so ask the journalists Allofs morning, noon and night for Thomas Schaaf, when he has to go, how long you hold on to it yet? The Supervisory Board also asks these questions purely rhetorical rather, the members know, the answers are the same for years.

". If you ask me about the coach, I can argue easily, Thomas Schaaf is still working class," And when still a nagging, he begins a counter-question, which it guarantees can not satisfactorily answer all, "Where is a better solution for Werder Bremen? "Schaaf Schaaf remains so, yes, he sometimes looks a bit dark, maybe he has become really thin-skinned, this is a miracle? If not the team's work is at least rely on the trainer, who works and works and if it is to talk about it, he brings do amazing things to light.

He had over Christmas a lot of thinking about the team, not about himself, and from the training camp in Belek (Turkey) back he could report first: "My person is not so important." Second, the team declared dead by many, is very much alive, visibly active in training, equipped with the will to do better in the second half, or more precisely today against TSG Hoffenheim.

It's called optimism, at once, tolerate, however, fill up not quite with the results in the preparation phase, rather than against supposedly weaker lost, self-consciousness, embarrassed the team, so that Mario Basler unpunished because not all wrong may secrete his words of category. "Werder is the increase of embarrassing" There is so kind-hearted Uli Borowka still, quote, "I see black" and even Dieter Eilts, the honest, cares about the seemingly only friend, "I wonder if Thomas does not seriously soon think about it, train times to another club.

"So is holding its winter break, some people work, the other the time is too long, they invent stories. Although, the test matches against Duisburg (1:4) and Eskisehirspor (1:3), not exactly awe-driven teams, acute Allofs also on the palm, with a wink he does today, with a little distance from the danger zone, "we have ? played not always bad in Turkey, "Of course, he public will get their pick, earned or not, he is the first politician in the house staff, so what now is and where he got to Özil Diego, or: where is equivalent replacement? Then, the sports director responds first with shrug, such caliber does not simply grow on trees, the next artist, whom he sees as promised, he brings back.

Who thirty years in football and eleven to the post, which is a loss for an answer. Six games and not a single point or vice versa: 16 points made up for the Werder has already experienced. Maybe come back the happiness of the past few years. "As we rode on a nice big wave," said Allofs.

Stay on is great. Falling down no shame.
