About the behavior of volleyball coaches during a game could all write books – so wonderfully unpredictable, their actions are so wonderfully unconventional, you sometimes. Velimir Petkovic, for example, the coach of Füchse Berlin, has confirmed to the on Thursday night time. In the Bundesliga game against SG BBM Bietigheim led his Team a few minutes before the end with five goals; the case was decided on the stands, the celebrations already began. Only Petkovic wasn’t going to do so not to celebrate to Mute; he was pissed off about the fahrigen appearance of his team. So mad, that he would Signal for a break – a short-hand for purposes other than intended, the Green card usually and angry behind the bench, threw.
Why Petkovic upset and so he said afterwards: “I am satisfied with the two points and the victory. But with the performance I am not at all agree. That is not so!“ It was not the first Time this season, in the Berlin warehouse dissonance between decision-makers and players on the surface. “We have made the most mediocre”, it was Manager Bob Hanning.

foxes-players should Alarm lights
The experience of recent years teaches: If upper said Hanning such sharp sentences, should give the players all the alarm lamps. Usually Hanning does not interfere into the daily business of professionals – with the exception, perhaps, of delicate interventions, to the use of time of the young players. Otherwise, he knows almost without exception, with national players occupied squad with Petkovic in good and experienced hands. However, when it comes to basic factors such as attitude, willingness and determination to understand Hanning no fun. “At the Moment we are in a mode that we want to retrieve only in special situations, special services,” says the Manager, “but a top team does not work according to my ideas.”
Actually, the Berlin have in this season a strong Talent for games herzuschenken or to make it exciting, the of the paper clear matters should be. In the Bundesliga, eight down to two-thirds of the season already in the balance sheet – no compatible value with the high expectations of the club. If the team is not for the final tournament of the DHB Cup on 6./7. April qualified, and in the EHF-Cup prospects in the race would be, the situation would be a little tense.
“In the first half of the season we have suppressed often enough and for obvious reasons, a blind eye,” says Hanning. At the time the Berlin phase of the way, and suffered ten wounded. “But the back are now almost all back. The width of the squad or on the staff, it can not be so.“ In spite of all the exchange options, few professionals showed reliably good performance, especially the young backcourt player Paul Drux and Jacob Holm.
the future must worry, in Berlin no-one
Drux and Holm are equipped with the foxes with long-term contracts, to your immediate future in Berlin, you don’t have to worry about that in contrast to some other team-mates. “It may well be that there will be in the summer for a cut,” says Hanning. How determined the Manager will pursue this idea, not least from the appearances of the foxes until the end of the season at the 9. June. Than can consider approximately circular runner Erik Schmidt and defensive leader Jakov Gojun, the Hannings maneuvers criticism were mentioned by name, not good, got away.
