The days of Niko Kovacs at the German record Champions FC Bayern are counted, believes Stefan Nestler. He says, however, that it is all too easy, if you are looking for the reasons of the misery, only the Trainer.
“What I saw for the first goal, I really only Slapstick films”, said Uli Hoeness blow usual line-prone to the point. The Bayern President has not lowered with this Expression the thumb only on the dropouts from defender Jerome Boateng in the said Situation. His criticism was focused on the entire performance of the team during the embarrassing 3:3 against Fortuna Düsseldorf after a 2:0 and 3:1. Because so much is clear: the unintentionally hilarious as the cast of Slapstick films may not occur Bayern players in Hoeness’s view of the world. In the case of the person in charge of the clubs, take it as obviously less accurate – as the media is untouchable “-played at the legendary”The Dignity of the people press conference, the Bayern top a month ago, impressively took.
An unspoken “yet”
A popular style in Slapstick films are chases. And such is likely to have heralded Hoeness with his words that at the forthcoming Champions League game on Tuesday against Benfica in Lisbon, “our coach will certainly be Niko Kovac”. The “still” remained unspoken, but unmistakable. The days Kovacs as Bayern coach are numbered, he should succeed now, not yet, as if by a miracle, the great turning point. Four winless home games in the series, the bitter defeat in the top match at Borussia Dortmund two weeks ago, the table in fifth place, nine points behind Borussia Dortmund is to Bayern-scale. Of course Kovac is responsible for this. But it is all too easy, if you try to blame him alone for the misery.
Strategic Error

Already before Kovac from the DFB Cup winners Eintracht Frankfurt, Champions on the river Isar moved, have made a strategic error. The Association sold to service providers, without replacing them adequately. The much-needed generation change in the squad had to wait, you trusted the deserved Over-30 group. The result: the opponents, the rapid lightning, hit-and-run attack football, it’s against Bayern in the rule.
Salihamidzic looks pale
Responsible for the management planning sports Director Hasan Salihamidzic. The Ex-Pro brings always the impression that the contract would be in his work, that he had good nod to when President Hoeness and Chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge start to their Mia-san-mia digressions. Not much more came so far from Salihamidzic. Still, the result is a stand – structurally and athletically. FC Bayern someone of the caliber of the former sport boss Matthias Sammer is missing: with above-average football expertise, new ideas are developed and you can also enforce time in the club’s tip against resistance. Because remember: The loudest one to laugh at Slapstick movies when the cake lands in face of the chief.
