DFB manager Oliver Bierhoff has been looking a EM-Quartier in Poland

The manager of the German national team know how hard football fans can be: After Oliver Bierhoff in 1998 was changed to AC Milan, the audience booed the 42-year-olds in games without scoring from first. The striker was at the top club by anyway: In 91 games he scored 38 goals for Milan and won the 1999 Italian championship.

Of the German fans after he calls the criticism in the second half in a 4-0 against Kazakhstan in future international matches more support for the team - especially in games against weaker opponents. Daily Soccer Buzz: Mr. Bierhoff, you upset the whistles of supporters in Kaiserslautern? Oliver Bierhoff: I found the atmosphere quite well.

The fact that times are a few whistles when the game just does not work out is how it is. Not good I think the spectators have whistled when Bastian Schweinsteiger was replaced. He was against Kazakhstan certainly not his best day, but he has fought in 86 internationals for Germany always full.

Since I lacked the support. Maybe it's the rivalry with Bayern Munich. Daily Soccer Buzz: The is given, except in Munich almost everywhere. Bierhoff: Yes, that's why I wish for neutrality in international matches by the fans. There should be no club thinking, if the national team occurs.

That there is not, in most cases. Daily Soccer Buzz: If the team has become a victim of its own success, even if it is still at a 4-0 whistles? Bierhoff: Sure, we have set the standards very high. But we also see in the other qualifying groups, that the big football nations do not shoot the little ones supposedly with Kanter wins from the stadium.

There are many 1-0 - or 2-0 victories are not exactly confident. But that should not be an excuse: We want to offer attractive football and were just in the match against Kazakhstan not only get three points, but also further develop our game. That must be our goal. So we pick up the viewers who keep coming to our numerous games.

We want nice football with this special connect with the audience. However, this connection must work in difficult moments, the other way around. Especially in difficult times, it would be nice if we support the fans involved. Anyone who knows anything about football, has seen how difficult it was to Kazakhstan to find rooms for combining.

In the first half we did well in our second game is unfortunately stalled. Daily Soccer Buzz: Is it really so difficult for a professional, play a clear leadership to further concentrated, or is absent because the German team just yet the so-called killer instinct? Bierhoff: We have to design with the class and the experience that our players, the game also attractive with a clear lead.

Of course there are situations where players who still play in the Champions League or a title, rather than withdraw completely dying. This is understandable and rightly so. But it has not located against Kazakhstan. We just lost the plot and made us difficult to slower game of life. Daily Soccer Buzz: Despite all this, Germany in Group now eight points clear.

There are still five games to complete, but you still have doubts that Germany 2012 will be here in Poland and Ukraine? Bierhoff: No, I have no doubt more. But we will celebrate only when we are qualified to final. But we have been the right and enough quality to achieve the sovereign. Daily Soccer Buzz: Have you picked a neighborhood? Bierhoff: No, not yet.

In April I will fly with the coaches to Poland, where we will look at three quarters, I have chosen in advance. Daily Soccer Buzz: The team will then live in Poland and in Ukraine? Bierhoff: Yes, it is focused on Poland. Daily Soccer Buzz: Tuesday is still a friendly match against Australia on the program.

Bierhoff: We'll always have to also compete to play where it's about nothing. But these contests are designed by us well. Australia is a very good opponent. We want to use this game to try things and to use those players to test and which do not belong to root formation. That since not everything is recorded, is clear.

We want our fans but also offer something against Australia. Recorded by Lars Wallrodt
