Cologne winters in the relegation zone

Steffen Baumgart has left the question of his future at 1. FC Köln open after the next setback in the Bundesliga and no longer rules out resigning. “It’s clear, in the situation we find ourselves in, that we question everything, including the coach. It’s not about me personally, it’s about all of this and it doesn’t look good to us, » the 51-year-old said in a press conference after the 2-0 defeat to 1. FC Union Berlin .

But he rejected a hasty decision. “It’s clear that we think of everything. What they will look like will certainly not be revealed to you tonight. The “Effzeh” is ranked 17th in the ranking. in the direct relegation zone for the short Christmas holidays. In 124, Baumgart has averaged 1.27 points so far, but this season the average is only 0.72 points. After matchday 16, the last time they found themselves in a worse position was during the 2017/18 relegation season.

Faced directly with the question of a possible resignation on « Sky », Baumgart explained: « It’s not about throwing in the towel, it’s about the club. Cologne is my club. When you work here for two and a half years, it’s about what’s best for the club, what’s best for this club. That doesn’t mean yes, it doesn’t mean no. We all have a responsibility and we must face it.

Cologne were the better team against Union for a long time, but they couldn’t find an answer after conceding their first goal. Baumgart was asked if he thinks he can give his team new momentum in the relegation battle. His response was twofold: “I think we should eliminate emotions now. When we see the pure performance, I think that when we see the results of the last few weeks, it is clear that there are discussions which are part of it. Therefore, let us discuss before giving an answer in any direction.

1. FC Köln: Schwäbe and Selke consider coaching discussions unnecessary

Marvin Schwäbe and Davie Selke disagree with their coach Baumgart, who is one of the three longest-serving coaches in the Bundesliga. A coaching discussion? Useless, FC professionals said, even after the sobering defeat in the relegation battle. Selke attested to the coach’s “clear announcements” and “excellent speech.” A separation would be counterproductive, the striker said. Goalkeeper Schwäbe described it the same way.

General manager Christian Keller also commented on the precarious situation, but remained open: “Steffen is a very, very good coach. For me, the crucial question is not whether the work is good – whether it is good. What matters is that everyone is convinced that we are moving things in the right direction. I am convinced that we will achieve it in the end. » When the Bundesliga resumes on January 13, Cologne will face 1. FC Heidenheim, the promoted team, who scored 20 points, twice as many as « Effzeh ».

Paris Saint-Germain striker Kylian Mbappé (24 years old, 15 games and 16 games in L1 this season) is it frustration in the central position according to the orders of manager Luis Enrique? Scorer against Lille (1-1) this Sunday in Ligue 1, the French international failed to achieve this achievement. And RMC radio consultant Daniel Riolo has a great overall attitude in Paris!

« Frustration or not (in relation to his position, editor’s note), he is still a professional player and his attitude is deplorable. It is absolutely deplorable in this match. There is zero defensive response, there is nothing, he does “When he goes to defend on a guy, he goes so badly, he makes mistakes and hits. He has a bad mind,” Riolo sighs.

On the sidelines of the reception of Clermont (Site notre blog d’information) on Sunday, during the 16th day of Ligue 1, Olympique de Marseille welcomed two of the legends: Lucho Gonzalez, who received the kick-off of the Meeting, and Dimitri Payet, assistant of the Venu. to meet and greet his former partners and conductors, Christmas hat on his head. Lucho, who Marseille fans remember as one of the architects of the title won in 2010, spoke of OM with great affection and without denying that a return to the club’s organization chart interests him.

“I have a huge pleasure in coming back. The supporters are always warm to me. OM is a great team which has the same state of mind as the winner’s successor. Coaching OM one day is a dream for me”, declared an Argentinian at the microphone of Prime Video. Retired since 2021 after six seasons with Atletico Paranaense in Brazil, is currently an assistant at Internacional, twice in Brazil.

At the break in this match, Yann M’Vila, the French international, did not hide the fact that the rumors of a signing for OM or OL, where he is frequently sent by the specialized media, do not are not unfounded.

“They are two good clubs, with a very good project. My qualities are compatible with the style of the equipment, but not for what? « .

Recently at Olympiakos, the former Stade Rennais midfielder, 33, is free of any contrast.

Both don’t match in my opinion. I don’t see Funkel and Boldt as a duo capable of working together, and Breitenreiter is not better than Walter, just maybe more flexible in choosing the system.

Why Walter should go:
Point 1:
If I see that the central defenders – even new ones – can neither complement Schönlau nor get closer to Vuskovic, I should rethink the system with the passing game in their half.

Point 2:
If I notice that the fullbacks, except Van der Brembt, cannot handle the system, I should rethink the system with the passing game in their own half.

Point 3:
If the wingers get worse and don’t develop further, I would have to rethink the 4-3-3 system.

Item 4:
If my players fail to maintain a lead over time because they continue to play the same way and don’t play safe or secure the ball in the opponent’s half, I should rethink the system.

Point 5:
If I notice that my team is no longer scoring away points and not performing as expected, especially against supposedly weaker teams, I should rethink the system.

Point 6:
If my key players are injured or out of shape, then I would have to rethink the system.

And if anyone from the fan-coaching team starts now, I’m going to freak out. HSV filled the stadium before Walter and would do so without him if the fans saw that the players put their heart and soul into it. With the exception of the first year of the second division, HSV has always had an average score above 50/51/52,000 in non-corona times, so there you go.

And if someone said that success proves the coach right, I would simply say what success?
Failed twice in relegation with a team that was still considered the big favorite before the start of the season?
The first relegation was particularly bitter because you even won in Berlin and were simply too stubborn and stubborn to approach an opponent differently and change the system in the second leg?
Their performance this season shows that they had no chance against Stuttgart.

I’m not saying that HSV has to win every game, but the common thread of needlessly losing points unfortunately runs through all the years of the second division, even in Walter’s era – and that’s despite having three strongest teams in terms of quality all the years. . Every HSV fan must ask themselves: Wouldn’t a coach with a somewhat variable playing style have been promoted a long time ago?

As reported by ‘Sky’ among others, Karim Adeyemi will be absent for the next three weeks due to an ankle injury. The 21-year-old, who recently had a solid game including a goal against PSG, will probably not play any more games for BVB this year. Quite bitter, because the runner-up can currently use all the difference players in the final push of the first half of the season.

Still without an appearance in the Bundesliga

1. FSV Mainz 05 awarded 23-year-old David Mamutovic a professional contract after the first team appointments. At the same time, the Rheinhessen team hires the former Leverkusen student, who arrived last year at the “Zero Fives” from Rot Weiss Ahlen, for another year until 2025.

Mamutovic continues his unusual evolution. The winger, who left Bayer 04 at the age of 16, joined the men’s division of SV Bergisch Gladbach. After 45 games with the local regional league team, he moved to Ahlen for a year, from where he joined the Mainz reserve team with 14 goals in 33 fourth division games. In the Bundesliga, Mamutovic has been on the bench for eleven match days so far without playing.

“Since his arrival at Mainz 05, David has made great development and achieved good performances among the U23s for training and the professional team. He really won his first contract as a professional player,” explained sporting director Martin Schmidt.
