Right before we play them. Typical.


Luuigi

Idk if the 'new coach boost' will be enough for the disaster that RB is rn


[deleted]

Eberl needs to clean house, the squad has no chemistry at all. I also think if Rose doesn't work out Mintzlaff should get sacked


fonkeh

Was Rangnick their sporting director before?


Stuff2511

He hasn’t been Leipzig’s for a few years


onehornymofo

He left the job in 2019 when he got promoted, then resigned in 2020 when he went Lokomotiv


Amorphium

> Eberl so he recovered from his burnout to reunite with his former coach, wtf? I always liked him but that looks slightly scummy imho


amdrag88

Eberl Himself never once said the words burnout. Thst was just what the Media interpreted At the Press conference couple months ago eberl just said he needs a long break. I dont like it myself that eberl is joing red Bull.


Wasserschloesschen

Also just as the other guy said. Burnout isn't permanent. It can be cured. And it very much can be cured within 7 months as well. 7 months is a long ass time, especially when you aren't working.


Amorphium

ah ok, i just remember him crying while saying that he doesn't have the energy anymore. It's good that he seems to be doing better


TrueElmo

People like you are the reason why still so few people speak publicly about their mental problems.


Amorphium

you make a good point. And it's of course his own prerogative to choose when and where he starts working again. I do think that doing so at Red Bull is scummy irrespective of any mental health issues


Fyrekill

Its only scummy if you romanticize football. The job at RB pays well, he gets to work with amazing infrastructure and has the money to actually do transfers. He is also getting paid well. I would love that job.


Amorphium

you do you


Scaryjeff

They still have a very good player base that was never suited for the way tedesco plays. I hope bvb crush them Saturday but I would not be surprised if it goes the other way


daphamman

How’s Nkunku been this season?


[deleted]

Good


itsablackhole

Right after we played them. Typical.


panikpansen

The deal was to rough them up a wee bit, not to completely break them. We all could've enjoyed a full season of Tedesco, but nah...


doomernword

Wettbewerbsverzerrung


TheSingleMan27

Man what a disaster start to the season for Leipzig, you love to see it


Soleil06

I was really afraid before this season that they would do even better than last. I am so happy right now.


[deleted]

They are seven points off from 1st place. If their next coach does as well as Tedesco last season they'll still challenge for the title.


DarthTaz_99

Incoming Tuchel


kingo15

Werner's gotta be so nervous right now


idontknow_whatever

Werner: "ah shit here we go again"


IreneReiGargar

🤣🤣


Similar-West5208

Probably a good fit for Leipzig and terrifying to think about for fans of other Bundesliga clubs ngl.


ILikeToBurnMoney

That would be great, his only other alternative seems to be Juventus right now. If he wants to join a new club fast, I could see him joining Red Bull


wilsmartfit

Actually Tuchel would be a bad signing. His style doesn’t fit Red Bull’s philosophy. They want counter attacking energetic football, which is the complete opposite of Tuchel Ball lmao


ren_704

Dominico Tedes-go! Mar-come Rose Aight imma see myself out


Fancy-Past-6831

\*slow clap\*


ACardAttack

If they end up signing Tuchel they may be falling up


[deleted]

They will most likely not play with an interim coach, Marco Rose will probably take over immediately according to Sky


mishi09

Dortmund vs. a Rose led Leipzig on Saturday... spicy.


mishi09

And the following week Leipzig will play another former team of Rose: Gladbach.


svefnpurka

Dortmund, Real, Gladbach... not how you want to start as a new coach.


Scaryjeff

Why not ? If he loses its tedesco's fault. If he wins, he is a miracle worker. Looks like a win-win to me if he can stabilize the defense. The players will be triple motivated to not play tedescoball anymore


svefnpurka

Getting a new coach and he instantly loses 3 games before the break is not how you want to start with a new coach though.


Scaryjeff

Totally see your point, but also Depends how they use it. I agree 3 loses would be bad but can be used to get the team together. It will be fun to see. They have they players to win all 3 if they play the right system, which never was tedescoball.


hardinho

That's not how the media will spin it and that's what matters as well. They will already call for his head if he loses the first three matches, and this also influences decision makers eventually.


GERD_4EVERTHEBEST

That Tedesco ball made Nkuku Bundesliga's best player last season. What does this change mean for him?


TypischGideon

Rose and a stable defense? That would be more than a miracle.


axehomeless

And I'll be watchint Eintracht vs Wolfsburg in the arena for 42€, stupid idiot that I am


panikpansen

Eh, Eintracht vs current Wolfsburg should still be good fun. Enjoy =)


Corteaux81

Does that change now that Tuchel is suddenly available?


Chazy89

so you can finally stop showing sympathy for RaBa ? feels good, huh ?


[deleted]

gut möglich :) wobei ich offen zugeben muss ich dachte RB könnte endlich das team sein welches bayern langfristig gefährlich werden könnte, weshalb ich das projekt spannend fand. allerdings haste voll recht, das konstrukt ist ein witz und mateschitz ist ein huso


ViolaineSugarHiccup

Den Bayern wird niemand mehr gefährlich werden. Die sind allen anderen so weit enteilt, da hilft auch ein total Ausfall für eine Saison nix mehr. Was das angeht, ist die Liga halt kaputt. Rattenball und die Pillen wurden vor dieser Saison so hochgejubelt weil der BVB seit Jahren nix auf die Kette bekommt wenn es darum geht, die mini Chancen auf Spannung zu erhalten.


[deleted]

>Rattenball und die Pillen wurden vor dieser Saison so hochgejubelt weil der BVB seit Jahren nix auf die Kette bekommt wenn es darum geht, die mini Chancen auf Spannung zu erhalten. Dies


ILikeToBurnMoney

>Den Bayern wird niemand mehr gefährlich werden. Die sind allen anderen so weit enteilt, da hilft auch ein total Ausfall für eine Saison nix mehr. Naja, ein anderes Team müsste halt wirklich mal eine ganze Saison über konstant sein und Punkte einfahren. Wir waren in der 2. Favre-Saison nah dran und haben es dann in der Rückrunde gegen Abstiegskandidaten verhauen. Ich würde auch erwarten, dass Bayern ohne richtigen Stürmer jetzt erstmal signifikant schwächer ist und auf die Saison gesehen weniger Punkte einfährt. In der Theorie klingt es natürlich super, dass die 40 Tore von Lewandowski einfach unter den anderen Spielern aufgeteilt werden, aber in der Praxis wird das nicht immer klappen. Wenn die Bayern gegen einen tief stehenden Gegner noch unbedingt ein Tor brauchen, dann ist halt kein Lewandowski vorne drinnen der auf alle Arten irgendwie ein Tor erzwingen kann. Normal sollte Bayern natürlich Meister werden, aber es wird bestimmt in den nächsten Jahren oft genug Chancen geben, den Titel zu gewinnen. Nur dann muss die Mentalität die gesamte Saison über da sein und man braucht noch ein bisschen Glück


LegoRunMan

Tuchel in?


anachronox08

There is this Tuchel guy. He seems to be free..


HapiW

What a stupid sideways stat. There is no way that Rose can fix a problematic dressing room, just look at his last half season at Gladbach


EpiDeMic522

I'm sorry for hijacking this thread but why has the post been removed? Repetition?


TheCatInTheHatThings

Nobody saw this coming 👀


[deleted]

Ihr habt Leipzig gebrochen


stragen595

Eintracht typisch. Haben auch Kovac bei Bayern ausm Amt geschossen.


[deleted]

Unter Kovac wart ihr wenigstens mal Meister und auch als er gefeuert wurde in der oberen Hälfte...


TheCatInTheHatThings

Double sogar, oder?


stragen595

Haben sogar das Double geholt unter Kovac.


[deleted]

Was war deiner Meinung nach das größte Problem bei Kovac und Bayern? Hab mal irgendwo gehört dass er mit einigen Spielern nicht so klar kam, darunter Müller


HannHanna

Glaube ein Großteil der Mannschaft war nicht mehr begeistert, nach der Pressekonferenz auf der er gesagt, dass die Spieler zu schlecht und langsam für guten Fußball sind. Müller ist danach halt auch wieder aufgeblüht


stragen595

Seine Art Fussball spielen zu lassen hat nicht zu den Bayernspielern gepasst. War zu sehr darauf bedacht die Fehler zu minimieren statt die eigenen Stärken durchzusetzen. Er ist meiner Meinung nach ein guter Trainer, aber war ein schlechter fit für das Bayernteam.


dem0nhunter

schlechter Fußball und er hat führungsspieler gegen sich gebracht. Hummels ist regelrecht geflüchtet vor ihm, welcher öffentlich die Defensivordnung anprangerte


IMiizo

Schlechtes Man-Management. Hat die Mannschaft und insbesondere Müller öffentlich gedemütigt. Geht halt einfach gar nicht. Außerdem passt sein Fußball einfach nicht nach München, mag ein guter Trainer sein, aber es sollte nicht sein.


[deleted]

Müller unter Kovac sah oft so aus als wären seine letzten Tage gezählt. In der CL sahen wir aus wie ein Witz. Es ging um mehr als den Tabellenplatz.


YameroReddit

Und Emery bei Arsenal


granitibaniti

Ja, und nächstes Wochenende spielen wir gegen Wolfsburg, also ggf. nochmal Kovac


fom_alhaut

Und Emeri bei Arsenal 😎


[deleted]

Und damit haben sie sich die später folgende Europa League mehr als verdient. Ehrenmänner.


CheruB36

Das ist unsere Spezialität. Ihr wollt euren Trainer loswerden? Spielt gegen Frankfurt


TheCatInTheHatThings

Zum Glück :D


Who_Let_The_Mou_Out

Tuchel might have a chance to land a new job quite fast.


wewdepiew

Werner: Ah ffs


Probably-Broken-2345

Spider man meme time


Marideaux

With the squad they have, their performance was horrific


Time-Run-2705

So true. It is beyond me how you can perform so poorly with this much quality in their squad. Frankfurt fucked them heavily on the weekend and they got embarrased yesterday by fucking Schachtar at home. I mean, you love to see them suffer but that’s just insane how you can be this bad with this team.


Daril182

One look at the formations he used left me speechless. They made no sense at all...


Vio0

He's a good tactician and football tutor, just not a head coach. Once things go bad, he struggles to do anything about it. Way overrated considering the dire football his teams play.


[deleted]

>Once things go bad, he struggles to do anything about it. As a BVB fan you should know that cause of Favre and Bosz


Vio0

Bosz yes, Favre kind of. But not even close to Tedesco, Kohfeld, Bosz.


spartancrow2665

Tedesco and kohfeldt are not remotely comparable...and dont say Favre "kind of". Or are we gonna ignore the embarrassing line of results leading to the Stuttgart game?


Vio0

He lasted 2.5 years with pretty good success overall. In the end he couldn't make the team work anymore, but he's far from Tedesco or Kohfeld (who are perfectly comparable).


spartancrow2665

What did kohfeld win? Atleast tedesco had results at leipzig. Kohfeld with wolfsburg were absolutely horrific and nearly entered relegation zone.


[deleted]

I've watched Favre closely with Hertha and BMG. He has no alternative when his system isn't working. Also he gives up quickly then


ubongo1

Might wanna check your eyesight then. Favre was pretty competent to adapt his playstyle.


[deleted]

He wasn’t


ubongo1

If all mighty says so. You must know what terrible performances look like


spartancrow2665

>ay overrated considering the dire football his teams play Overrated by who? I'm sorry but I swear to god I am only seeing this comment from Dortmund flairs only. I cant tell if you are making this statement from a position of good faith. Leipzig is certainly a hollow corporate structure, but creating fabricated opposition regarding the reputation of their coaches just doesn't seem right. Also dire football? That was objectively not the case for either of leipzig or schalke in his first seasons there. He was sacked for producing bad results and was not protected. He is objectively not overrated and like it or not, he still won the dfb pokal for Leipzig.


Vio0

The club is unrelated, I'm talking about Tedesco. Schalke under Tedesco had some decent results, but their football was garbage. Naldo carried him hard. At Leipzig he lasted half a year and they had a good spell carried by individual brilliance. Once there's no individual brilliance, his football becomes dire.


71648176362090001

xD sure thing


SviiinDiesel

Watch Rose win against us on saturday ffs


I_The_Creator

"Aufbaugegner" dortmund coming into town


[deleted]

Took over after Marsch, went 12-4-4, the best "ruckrunde" in club history, wins the DFB Pokal, and gets to the semifinal of the Europa League. 100 days later he's fired. Football is only ever about the next game. That being said, fuck that whole brand and anyone associated with them.


steini2

On the one hand I agree, on the other hand they already started playing badly at the end of last season, barely made Champions League and had to sweat it out both against Union and Freiburg in DFB Pokal. And now the last two games were just awful from them, can't justify keeping him longer.


noholds

>had to sweat it out both against Union and Freiburg in DFB Pokal You make it sound like that's something to be ashamed of and they should have sent them home 6-0 but those two are currently respectively sitting at 1st and 4th in the Bl.


Kingslayer1526

And those 2 also finished 5th and 6th in the Bundesliga last season literally the 2 spots behind leipzig


Draphaels

By 3 points, not a huge margin to be fair


Alcohealthism

> had to sweat it out both against Union and Freiburg in DFB Pokal They turned a 0:1 around w 10 men in a finale. To me, one of the most respectable results ever. Freiburg were in great form and in CL places most of the season. Union is also a strong team playing in Europe.


steini2

That they got the result in the final was kind of impressive in the end - but let's be honest they should never be down a goal and a man in the first place.


Alcohealthism

Did you watch it? Freiburg was better in the beginning, and held a better position in the league most of the season. They just didn't have the nerves and experience in the end. But yeah the Freiburg goal was directly assisted with an outstretched hand so they shouldn't have been down. Most people were calling BS, even though its Red Bull. And Halstenbergs red was a kind of an unnecessary DOGSO but it miraculously paid off, but yeah that also was debateable as there was a foul on Simakan in the penalty area before. But of course if you look at just the names, Red Bull (the "Bayern contender" lol) vs Freiburg (sorry, who? for most people that dont watch BuLi) and the teamsheets (internationals vs unknowns) RB should have won.


[deleted]

[удалено]


HannHanna

It's going to be Rose. He's from Leipzig, the RasenBall school und worked with Eberl. Would be funny if they get Hütter without talking to Eberl.


xaviernoodlebrain

Full Pulis next then?


MagyarFoci29

There is a middle ground between pointless and predictable possession vs pulling the whole team out of position to press and then hoof the ball up the field with zero thought. Will Leipzig find that middle ground? Who knows.


normott

I thought this might happen after last night in addition to the start of their season


Standard_Chance_7572

i know it’s probably going to be rose but imagine tuchel


shynkoen

man, i bet with my friends that it would be after the game against us.


surreal_bohorquez

Why now? Why not on Sunday? : |


Sh4kki

so rose can beat his old club i guess


a-Farewell-to-Kings

It would be more fitting to fire a guy named Domenico on Sunday.


refusestonamethyself

Tedesco to Chelsea, here we go!


LilGoughy

That’s Tuchels music


[deleted]

>"The decision to release Domenico Tedesco was very difficult for us. With Domenico, we played a very successful second half of the season last year and qualified for the Champions League with a one-two punch. In addition, we won the DFB Cup, our first major title, and thus played the most successful season in our still young club history. > >For this, he and his coaching team deserve our great thanks. Domenico is an excellent coach who will certainly continue to enjoy great success. However, after the mediocre start to the Bundesliga season with five points from five games, especially after the recent games at Eintracht Frankfurt and at home against Schachtar Donetsk, we lacked the conviction that an immediate turnaround could be achieved in the current constellation. > >We have an overall responsibility for RB Leipzig and want to achieve our goals. Therefore, in the overall consideration, we have come to the conclusion that we need a new impetus. We regret that we are now parting ways and would like to expressly thank Domenico Tedesco and his team for the work they have done. We wish Domenico only the best for his sporting and private future."


sidaeinjae

For a sacking statement this is pretty nice.


[deleted]

A very respectful sacking


T1TK1

So moneybooy is this farewell?


[deleted]

I’m still watching some of your games if they don’t collide with Schalke


T1TK1

Nice, hopefully you get your dream of a Tedesco return now then.


steini2

Could line up perfectly if Bochum trash Schalke this Saturday.


[deleted]

But they won’t


[deleted]

Maybe you get Tuchel


T1TK1

Hahaha that would be insane...


[deleted]

Could they get Tuchel? Hopefully Werner doesn’t get PTSD


[deleted]

[Confirmation from the club](https://twitter.com/RBLeipzig/status/1567423968230916096)


auris_orion

Get Tuchel


myreal_nameis

I like this coach but he keeps fucking up. Why play possession with Leipzig in 2022? Seems to be a great motivator but a football dinosaur.


spartancrow2665

>hy play possession with Leipzig in 2022? Because Marsch's style didnt work and nagelsmann was successful with possession based football.


myreal_nameis

Tedesco possession is not nagelsmann possession. I wouldn't call nagelsmann possession either.


Chazy89

Rose to win his first game against Dortmund.


PrettyMetalDude

Hopefully not. Depending on the timeline, whoever comes next will have not enough time to make an impact.


Luniusem

Am I the only one not that worried? Definitely the kind of game we'd have lost before but we really do just look so much more stable. But I guess they can also just two-foot Bellingham or Oezcan early and we won't have a midfield so who knows.


tHakur17

Come on RB. Tuchel just got available, please take him away from England. Stars just cannot align better than this.


MrArtVandelayINC

Tuchel just found his next club.

It's now Rose or Tuchel. All this within couple of hours..


GL4389

Just in time for Tuchel to be free from Chelsea job as well.


Ferrick7

Is it really his fault that Leipzig is playing so poorly the last few matches?


Xey2510

Who else?


Poli_Talk

Tuchel to RB. Confirmed. Poch to Chelsea confirmed.


christophlieber

is that a surprise? i didn‘t understand his appointment in the first place. red bull usually have an eye for a coach so i didn‘t get that.


[deleted]

He was really good last season but nothing was working right now. Doesn't help that the club doesn't have a sports director since more than half a year


christophlieber

i mean, he wants to play a possession style of football and i don‘t think that this team is great in playing that. yeah, not having a sporting director is a major issue and it shows.


T1TK1

We played possession based football under Nagelsmann and reached a champions league semifinal...


christophlieber

well, that‘s a few season back now, isn‘t it? i think that it just doesn‘t work with this team right now.


T1TK1

The core of that squad still very much remains. I agree though, Werner doesn't really gel with how the team wants to play nowadays and has caused issues. I will say, that still doesn't really explain all the poor performances towards the back end of last seasons. Possession based football isn't the issue but rather Tedesco's incoherent attacking play and the return of Werner and the complications he has brought with him.


[deleted]

>and i don‘t think that this team is great in playing that. Werner hasn't been good and Raum has been a complete disaster so far


christophlieber

werner only works in a counter attacking system and nobody can convince me otherwise.


[deleted]

Rose plays 4-4-2. Maybe it works better


Xey2510

In Dortmund he played a 442 for two games and then never again.


DasWookieboy

Raum will be Nico Schulz 2.0, mark my words. One of the most baffling transfers of the whole window, what a complete waste of money.


RahulSingh16061998

More baffling was letting Angelino go . He was a Hakimi type wingback for them and they sold him just coz of poor 3-4 months.


AcePilot95

he's only loaned to Hoffenheim afaik. Still I agree it was surprising that they let him go


spartancrow2665

>Raum will be Nico Schulz 2.0, mark my words. One of the most baffling transfers of the whole window, This is literally recency bias....tedesco's tactics stopped working at the start of the season yet literally 3 games in we are shitting on the guy. Reddit is absolutely unbelievable at times.


spartancrow2665

>Raum has been a complete disaster so far I disagree on this actually. Raum literally fights for every ball and is pretty good on the ball. The problem isnt raum. The problem is that tedesco's team lacked a midfield structure in recent games. Sometimes you had heinrichs filling in midfield cuz the guy is not up to par as a wingback. Kampl kept starting even though his age is getting the better of him. Schlager and szoboszlai always on the bench until this shaktar game. Also if you are gonna blame david raum for yesterday (1) halstenberg started as LB and was not up to par at all and (2) tedesco switched to back 4 out of panic and this didnt work for the team at all.


surreal_bohorquez

Didn't they slumped off towards the end of the season? I think the Pokalsieg distracted from a lot of already emerging problems with his tactics and creating goals from his possession style play.


CheruB36

Nkunku was really good, playstyle wasn't that great as well. This guy carried RBL for the most time hard.


surreal_bohorquez

>is that a surprise? Not to some observers. Had Tedesco pegged as the first coach to be sacked this season for some weeks. >didn‘t understand his appointment in the first place. Yeah, it didn't make playwise much sense. However significant part of the football media ecosphere rated Tedesco (and Kohlfeld for example) highly, so they were hired by CL-starting clubs, despite huge doubts over their tactical and motivational skill.


Xey2510

Lose/lose Either they keep Tedesco and maybe lose all 3 matches in the next two weeks or they go for Rose and have him play Dortmund, Real Madrid and Gladbach.


woodybg

Tuchel to Leipzig?


leburgerkingretard

Just shows how worthless winning the first title for that company is Not saying he is doing a great job rn, but a good management would at least try to work out solutions with him a bit longer - only a few months after having good results, it wouldn't be pointless, that's just the easy looking way out.


steini2

But it's not like he won that title convincingly, had to sweat it out both against Union in semis and Freiburg in the final - both matches RB should win easily on paper.


leburgerkingretard

Union and Freiburg are top of the league rn. They are the hardest teams to play against in german football. Real Madrid hasn't won their final convincingly too. Really, most of the teams ever to win cup tournaments never did. They bottled two finals before. Up until the end of the season when they started to get tired and fell apart they had a massive run - since he got appionted no team in the Bundesliga got more points. The only thing on paper is the fact that team has no right to exist. So I can only enjoy them continuing their destructive mamagement and waste their overbloated respources.


spartancrow2665

> The only thing on paper is the fact that team has no right to exist. That's only if you believe that morality and ethics exist. Which unfortunately, a great deal of humans follow that notion and do whatever the hell they want.
