Nsame and Amenda complained about playing time: YB coach Wicky does not want complaining players

YB oasis of well-being. Of course: the performance principle is fiercely respected. Otherwise the great successes of the past six years would not have been possible. But just like this principle, it also follows the principle that only involves players with integrity and sanity and ‘trains’ them accordingly. There is no provision for making jokes in public. Not even in affect, that is to say in the emotions immediately after a match.

The route through the media is the wrong one

Yet this happened twice after the 3-1 win against newly promoted Stade-Lausanne-Ouchy. Only with top scorer Jean-Pierre Nsame (30), the empathetic Bible reader. Then with the upcoming Frankfurt Aurèle Amenda (20). Sports director Steve von Bergen (40) had already announced that he would talk to Nsame, because every player had to accept that the club was above everything and that the coach had to make the decisions when it came to the line-up.

Discussions have now been held with the players, which coach Raphael Wicky (46) confirms: “First of all, I have to say that I don’t want players who are happy when they are not playing. I have emphasized this over and over again. It’s good when a player is frustrated. This shows that he is hungry to play. But we discussed with the players that it was wrong to use the media to complain. You know: my door is always open.” He has a way of dealing with matters that means you can always contact the trainer if you are dissatisfied.

What happens to Nsame?

“It has been clarified internally. But you shouldn’t make it bigger than it is,” says Wicky. He believes the other players have not always been happy about not playing for the past 18 months. “But they don’t have to complain through the media.”

Amenda could be quite a waste if he moves to Eintracht Frankfurt immediately, and so it seems. But what about Nsame? In an interview with the “Tribune de Genève” (which was not authorized by his employer), the French-Cameroonian spoke about discussions with Servette, his former club. Also from those with Basel. Until Von Bergen put an end to the goings on and ruled out a transfer within the competition.

What now, Mr. Nsame? The main character is not allowed to speak after the trial against Zion (4:3). And his agent blocks it: “We have nothing to announce at this time.”

And yet: Nsame is dissatisfied. No discussions with YB about a contract extension in prospect. And a contract that expires in the summer. Even though the striker has not yet expressed a desire to move to Wicky, a lot can still happen in the coming days.
