As with Niko Kovac? After the disappointing draw in Augsburg, the leadership of FC Bayern has to take a stand, asks Joscha Weber: back cover, or get thrown out. Anything in between is not.
He brings to Müller’s criticism, he him – just one of the many Problem of Niko Kovac in Munich
The trend is your friend, says a stock market wisdom. And how wise is, know all of that already set time to be long in a supposedly solid stock. The Trend is sometimes mean and everything other than your friend. For example, in the case of Niko Kovac: The Hashtag #KovacOut trendete on Saturday evening on Twitter in Germany. So it’s called in the Social Media-English, if in a short time, many Users talk about the same topic. #KovacOut, so the demand for the expulsion of the (Still-)Bayern Coach Niko Kovac, is currently all the rage. And this not only on the drive home from the Arena with the train home, or in the case of beer in the Munich pubs, but good visible in the social networks.
This is also part of the everyday life of a Trainer, perhaps the most stressful Job in the football Business. Before on the floor the Fans with chants or banners stands against the Trainer points, do it today, on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram. The frustration of the Fanseele after disappointing results such as the recent 2:2 FC Bayern in the Underdog FC Augsburg gets, first of all, typically the Trainer. Niko Kovac but it’s, like, an announcement.
No “Mia san mia”
Because from the beginning, Kovac lacked the undivided backing of the Association. Board Boss Karl-Heinz Rummenigge avoided striking is often to make a clear commitment to the coach and not just as the conveyor. Due to Kovac, it should be also come to a dispute between Rummenigge and President Uli Hoeness. From his first day at Kovac for his allegedly low international trainer had to justify the experience. He led Croatia to the world Cup and Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League. Both are nice achievements, but it is actually much too little for the “Mia san mia”-the self-understanding of the FC Bayern. And exactly here lies the Problem.
DW sports editor Joscha Weber: “Now, there are exactly two solutions to the Dilemma of the FC Bayern with Niko Kovac.”
The Bavarians chose a Trainer that you doubted really something. As a “small solution” was referred to at the Säbener Strasse, the spoil was sounding trainer names such as Pep Guardiola, Carlo Ancelotti or Jupp Heynckes. That lack of confidence leads to success, now should be a surprise to anyone. And if Kovac says that his Team was still so far to provide “three or four good games in a row”, that’s not what you want to hear in Munich and not really “Mia san mia”. But how in the name of self-confidence also?
Either or: back or get thrown out
Two draws, a defeat and just two wins against the cellar children Paderborn and Cologne – so the pretty poor record of Bayern is out of the last five Bundesliga Games. A intermediate 7:2-Kant victory against last year’s finalists of the Champions League, Tottenham Hotspur, helped only for a short sentiment. The hangover after Oktoberfest is in Munich.
Now, there are exactly two solutions to the Dilemma: Either the entire leadership of the FC Bayern Munich now, and just now demonstratively behind Niko Kovac. Or you finished this Chapter, it reads like a single misunderstanding.
