The Schalke Club’s head coach, Frank Kramer, acknowledged that he does not comprehend the source of the fans’ ire over their team’s third-from-last finish in the German league standings (Bundesliga).
Schalke, who returns to the lights league this season, won only once until now, before his match against his guest Hoffenheim tomorrow, Friday, through which he seeks to avoid the fourth defeat in a row, as it is expected that Kramer will be dismissed if the team is lost.
When Kramer, a former coach of Armenia Belfeld, took over as Schalke’s manager in June of last year, he declared, “Right from the outset we committed to work on staying in the Bundesliga.”
He added: “If you look closely, we are in the position we expected. ”
At the end of the season, Schalke will be in third place from the bottom, giving its owner the opportunity to compete in the upmarket and land a supplement to the Bundesliga against the third-place league in the second division.
After Mike Boskin’s decision, which caused the team to promote Kramer rather than keep him in his position, Schalke agreed to a contract with him. However, Kramer is not well-liked by the supporters, and many called for his firing following the discouraging loss at the Bayer Leverkusen Stadium with four goals scored without reply last Saturday.
When asked about the pressures he faces, Kramer responded, “You are also human, of course, you feel it, but also such a chat before the matches is not useful, my emphasis centres on playing Hoffenheim.”
Not just the outcomes, according to Roven Schroeder, director of sports for Schalke.
“The last game caused disappointment with all of us,” he continued, “the outcome was one side of the issue, but this was not the Schalke that we prepared.”
We are quite hopeful that things will change tomorrow, and there is a strong willingness to portray ourselves differently then, he continued.
Schroeder escaped from answering the question whether he had already had talks with potential substitutes of Kurmer.
Schroeder stated, “We are dealing with the fait accompli, the present, and the game against Hoffenheim, and nothing else.
Thomas Reese has become the favorite candidate to train Schalke, and reports stated that Schalke wanted to contract him in the summer had it not been for his association with Boukhum’s training, which later removed him..
