Mehmet Scholl criticizes the obstacles in the training of coaches at the DFB and is angry about the appearance of Peter Maffay.
Former national player Mehmet Scholl (50) has called for fewer hurdles for deserving footballers on the way to a coaching career. He sees the German national team’s early exit from the European Championship due to their training.
“The essentials are no longer trained because the knowledge of success is dying out,” said Scholl at the picture. Years ago he was “tarred and feathered” when he pointed out the problems of German football, “with his education, his characters, the sorting out of creative people and leading players”.
So the DFB get “a well-trained mass of players”, admitted Scholl. “But when things get tight, then they are not good enough, then they scream for mom.”
Scholl echoes over Maffay appearance
Therefore one must integrate deserved footballers into the training of the players and “make sure of it as quickly as possible, the Schweini [Bastian Schweinsteiger] and Philip [Lahm] to give the coaching license. ”
Scholl continues: “Why should the eleven months go to Cologne to train as a coach? Give them the certificates, give them a bit of the structure – and then take them to the market.” There are too many coaches “who have never broken anything as players or were successful.”
The visit of singer Peter Maffay to the national team’s quarters a few days ago also made Scholl angry. “The DFB has a huge image problem,” he complained. “When I hear that the world star Ed Sheeran sings with the English and Peter Maffay from Lake Starnberg with the Germans. Maffay is a great artist, but the kids don’t even know him anymore.”
