Iwans Big Toe 382 Posted May 21, 2014 No threads on this guy and I''ve only seen his name mentioned in one post so far. Probably more wishful thinking than possible reality too. He announced to Mainz his intention to leave on the 11th May and the same day we got a statement that there would be a new management team announced within a week. Mainz turned down his request as they don''t want him to leave. Could this be what the hold up is? I don''t believe that there are any jobs available in Germany with a higher profile than his current club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bethnal Yellow and Green 2,424 Posted May 21, 2014 He''s almost certainly off to Schalke. He''s pretty much the hottest manager in the Budesliga, he knows its only a matter of time before one of the biggest clubs comes calling for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 335 Posted May 21, 2014 Been a big fan and promoting him for months now; far too good for the championship unfortunately but would have loved to push the boat out to lure him if we had survived. hey ho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herman 11,136 Posted May 21, 2014 What Zipper said. We are in the wrong division now to lure him over. Shame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Walking Man 13 Posted May 21, 2014 I''ve been banging on about him for more than a year now. Wished we''d made an attempt for him last Summer when he was making noises then about taking Mainz as far as he felt he could. Like everybody else has said, he''s way to good for the Championship.
