The national team disappointed at the end of the European Championship qualifying. Due to the 0-1 defeat against Romania, they missed the group win. The way of doing things causes discussions. Also with the ex-Nati players Blerim Dzemaili (37), Alberto Regazzoni (40) and Valon Behrami (38) in the RSI studio.
After the match, Manuel Akanji was asked what coach Murat Yakin said to the team on the field. His response: “It was too loud, I couldn’t understand it.”
Behrami speculates that he may not have been interested in the coach’s words. If that were the case, he believes it would be a wrong attitude. Behrami also says: “We are used to national figures being over-protected just because they play for Manchester City.”
Dzemaili lacks self-criticism
Dzemaili remembers his time at Napoli, when “the most phenomenal players were the most humble people”. It is disrespectful to Manchester City if an Akanji is not criticized. You would do that with the coach, so why not with the players too? It looks a bit like they’re putting their feet up. You lack self-criticism. He also misses that at Yakin.
“Xhaka is not doing what he does in Leverkusen and Akanji is completely out of form,” Dzemaili added. “I don’t know what they think, who they are. You can be the best player, but if you are not humble, sooner or later it will all come back.” The most important thing in football is always the team.
“Without support you end up like Yakin”
The ex-Nati players also discuss candidates who could replace Yakin as coach. Their selection includes: Urs Fischer (57), Lucien Favre (66), Jogi Löw (63), Bernard Challandes (72) and Alain Geiger (63).
Fischer does not see her as a national coach. He technically does not convince Behrami, Dzemaili finds him unsuitable. Favre is no longer available because he is a coach “who has to work with his players every day.” They are unsure about Challandes and Löw, especially with the latter they do not know how he could help the national team. Behrami’s main advantage with Geiger is that he can work well with guys. “When we see all these names, we keep having doubts because we know how difficult Tami’s task is,” Dzemaili summarizes.
And Regazzoni adds: “If you don’t have the support of the association to make important decisions, you end up just like Yakin.” He describes it almost as a shame that it has come to this. In addition to the name of the next coach, it is also important to make the association stronger and to function as one whole. Then everything would be easier, because the players would also notice that everyone stays together and goes in the same direction.
