One thing you can’t accuse Christian Heidel quite sure that he makes the really important decisions of public expectations to steer. As Heidelberg was still Manager of FSV Mainz 05, he has released a few days before the start of the new season, his coach Jörn Andersen who had returned to the club in the football League. Blueberry has let that success fool you. He was not long ago come to the realization that Andersen did not fit with his way to Mainz football idea, and that it would be better to end the cooperation as soon as possible – even at the risk that most wouldn’t understand.
This risk does not exist at this time. At the latest at the end of this season, the blueberries will cease as a sports Board of FC Schalke 04. The decision he made in the beginning of this week, and he announced on Saturday after the 0:3 defeat in – of all places – Mainz, is likely to meet little more lack of understanding. Schalke are playing their worst season in the football League for 36 years, as they were only able to prevent the Relegation of the descent. Games like the one in Mainz meet for the Fans of the club for the offence of assault. And the team is in this respect, already a repeat offender. There’s the man of the bears by virtue of their office, the overall responsibility of advocacy, in General, only a few.
the Plan of Schalke with blueberry is quite the charm: The permanent magnet club from the Ruhr area requires a Manager who is noticed in his first season in professional football is not by glaring contradictions, but through sustained work; in his native city of Mainz from a trivial division a more or less stable Bundesliga side made, and also repeated a good eye has demonstrated, both for the coach (Jurgen Klopp, Thomas Tuchel), as well as for players. With Heidel, the former car dealer, also wanted to be the S04 is a bit mainziger, what was certainly not a bad idea. You have even, you could see that from the duration of the present Supervisory Board was listening to chief Clemens Tönnies long.
Schalke has long been re-Schalke
Meanwhile, however, Schalke re-Schalke – and not a second of Mainz, only with more money. And at the centre of all debates Christian Heidel. For weeks there were discussions about his Person, he explained on Saturday evening. If he was but the trigger for all the commotion, it was only logical to vacate the place. This is quite honorig, as well as the notice to terminate the agreement and not to speculate nor to a severance payment.
It is distracting but also a little bit of the view from the Heidels responsibility. The statement that he was the trigger for the unrest, finally, a different point: Heidels balance sheet in the case of the scarf the core of the criticism is quite worthy. The team should not be DFB-Cup winner, does not qualify you for the second Time in three years under blueberry for the European Cup. His game obligations, brought forward Schalke. On the contrary, players like Embolo, or Rudy were especially expensive. So precious Heidels resignation is, presumably, his time would be gone to Schalke in the summer anyway.
