VfB sports director Michael Reschke remains firmly in the saddle. But since his team plan did not work, he must act himself. Two, three new players are expected in winter.
Stuttgart – At the Ultras in the curve of Cannstatter, the sports director of VfB has long been a very tough opponent, but his own boss reinforces the back of Michael Reschke. "He enjoys our absolute trust," said Wolfgang Dietrich about the future of his manager. This is not disputed by the President of Stuttgart. Although in the distant California, with Jürgen Klinsmann, an alternative came into play, the word Dietrichs holds: Reschke remains our man.
Meanwhile, critics of the best VfB planner have to wait for headwinds. For example, Guido Buchwald, who was beginning to describe the premature renewal of Reschke 's summer contract with coach today defeated, Tayfun Korkut, described it as "mistake" before demanding a more important sporting skill in the direction: "It's still difficult," he said. 1990 World Champion, "when everything is moored to one person".
What are the consequences for Buchwald?
This is obviously different in the top VfB. After all, there will be a meeting of the Supervisory Board next week – and Dietrich has already announced that they will also debate the Causa Buchwald. The fact that the honorary captain, member of the Supervisory Board since July 2017, is even advised not to participate, which, according to the statutes, can only be done on his own initiative, is one of the possible options. .
Michael Reschke, meanwhile, can continue – and only expected if the crisis at the bottom of the table with a series of defeats in the last five matches is even more dramatic, to expect personal consequences. This was also heard at Klinsmann's home, from which it is already evident that the offer of the former federal coach to take over a responsible task at VfB has set deadlines.
Reschke still has about five weeks left before the traditionally difficult winter transfer market opens its doors. However, the search for reinforcements, which VfB so badly needs in light of the previous season's performances with just two wins and two draws in the first twelve games of the season, is already in full swing.
The VfB wants to sign at least two offensive players, while only eight goals were scored in the season. Reschke could therefore revive once more considering its summer plan A with an initially promising mix of experienced and young players and the position in the seasonal goals table, which was far away, for now. This has many reasons – artisbad and less predictable.
On one side, Mario Gomez, attacking now unsafe ("Someone else has to do it?"), Which usually represents a one-man show under the VfB storm. But why did Reschke let Daniel Ginczek settle in Wolfsburg this summer? At a time when the muscular striker was finally getting back in shape after an endless injury? It is missing now a supplement or a backup solution for Gomez. And it seems very questionable that Sandro Wagner leaves Bayern to go to VfB.
Daniel Didavi is absent in every corner
As Ginczek departed, Reschke took Daniel Didavi to Wolfsburg. The fact that he has lined up a lot in the offensive game on the delicate left foot has fallen into the hands of the coach and is focusing on a close-footed team. Didavi has been missing for weeks – although this time it's not the old Woe on the knee, but the Achilles tendon.
Other players such as Holger Badstuber and Gonzalo Castro are lagging behind their usual form, so the critics also have the advantage. Why, it is said, was Reschke to equip a 29- and 30-year-old boy with a three-year contract? Borna Sosa, 20, and Pablo Maffeo, 21, have signed for five years. While one inhibits an injury, the other remains guilty until further notice of being a positive stock for VfB Stuttgart 1893 AG. The same goes for Christian Gentner, who alludes to the accusation that he has pbaded the zenith of his career.
A loan from Maximilian Philipp would be an option
Because others, like Emiliano Insua and world champion Benjamin Pavard, have played in the form, the VfB has not yet reached the pre-season stage. The Reschke A plan did not work. The staff will now be improved with two or three new people, but you have to find them first. The Gladbacher Patrick Herrmann is a possible candidate. It is also a loan of professionals from BVB and external striker Maximilian Philipp, formerly of SC Freiburg, will be examined. For Michael Reschke, it is not easy to convincingly apply a Plan B.
