The double Bundesliga champion s 39 is imposed on FC Zurich: Ludovic Magnin, 39, coach of the Cup since the end of May. In its second season of Super League, the dynamic and innovative Romand has a lot to offer. He wants to reduce the difference to the top duo YB and Basel and talks in an interview with the Keystone-SDA news agency about his consistent journey with valuable FCZ talent.
The night of the victory, you have many times the confidence of the club thank you for your work.
"I've been here for eight years and I know every corner of the club, I was aware at the time of success, how much heart and soul are in such a victory." Such successes are only possible if all world is involved It was important to me that everyone could have the impression of being a winner of the cup.It takes more than 20 players to win this trophy.It must work a lot.
What do you think of as the winner of the Cup in the new season?
"As a player, I have twice had the chance to win a cup. Germany No one knows anymore that I've lost a final with Stuttgart But remember the victory with Bremen.I also forwarded this message to my team – in ten years nobody knows who challenged the world champion in France.On the other hand, our cup trophy remains in harmony. "
You identify yourself extremely well with your club.
"My heart FCZ has grown.After my return from Germany, I probably could have gained more elsewhere.But FC Zurich m drew me, he played something special for me And of course, I now know the whole machine.I know how much effort the many professional helpers make in the background. "
Is the top position of the professional team a privilege for you as an ex-junior coach?
"It does not go without saying Can be the boss of an ambitious team.You know, I'm not a simple person, I have a lot of asperities.I would have also accepted some detour through the Challenge League, or to complete a second year U21.This is why I consider my promotion l & # 39; Last winter as a sign of great appreciation from those in charge. "
Where do you set your priorities?
"It's important to me that my team is almost tactically perfect and able to play differently. Modern football is moving in this direction."
In addition to seven years of the Bundesliga, his collection includes 62 international matches and Four Final Entries: Is Your Past Flowing Into Everyday Life?
"Playing at a high level is not a prerequisite for my work, but it increases my repertoire. I know exactly what it's like to stay in the stands if you're not considered by the trainer. I have experienced crisis situations – I always have the feeling that frustrated VfB fans were lying in front of our cars because of poor results and thus prevented our return home. I know what pressure can do with one. "
They never used to chew words before – do you work as a trainer?
" The most important thing in my job is human leadership. For me, there are currently difficult discussions with players who have to queue. We have a 30cc team, so many will not play often. I have and I want to communicate openly – I am not someone who speaks behind the back of others, but rather unconditionally honest; I do not want players to hear relevant things through advisers or the newspaper. "
So you are honest to the point of pain
" That's how I go. Of course, I am fresh in the business. One day, I will be released. My goal is to be correct and sincere, to have done everything to succeed – to have acted so that I can look at myself in the mirror at night.
Back to everyday life. They announced before the summer break that they wanted to harass again the crazy clubs of Young Boys and Basel.
"We had a lot of backlogs, so I did not even look at the table, I want us to reduce that distance as fast as possible." The two big players have worked very well in recent years, but we have to push them away without losing sight of the reality, I am convinced that the 35 points behind YB are not the real difference between us and the Bernese. "
What super-league role do you have for the FCZ?
"The visiting teams should feel again, that they have to suffer a lot in Zurich for a good result, I want to see a dominant team that wants the ball.Inversely, we should also be able to play counter-attacks – an intelligent team that is able to adapt their style to the task of playing realistic football.This is not like playing against Cottbus at home against FC Barcelona. "[19659007] The Canepa presidential family establishes a course strongly based on its own concept of coaching.Do you feel the attitude of the club owner to help you, the former coach of the under 18s , even in difficult situations?
"We have pretty similar ideas about football. Nobody has to tell me how many boys I should use. This is not necessary because we believe in the same concept. They are aware of the change we must make. The club management has people who understand how demanding our work is. But it would be worthwhile to defend this philosophy and these principles with all their might. "
Speaking of Philosophy: A talent courted on a European scale such as 16-year-old defender Becir Omeragic signed with the FCZ a transfer with a signal effect. Other exciting juniors have also signed professional contracts with us. For Omeragic: The hiring was a huge blow. It is a signal transfer signal for all of Switzerland and Europe. He was hunted by big organizations. He has taken into account the sporting aspects that are important to him – and we are currently one of the best addresses! "
