Rucksackfranzose 4,391 Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Wouldn't be surprised, if Union gonna regret this decision. In my opinion one of the best managers around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,397 Posted November 15, 2023 Administrator Share Posted November 15, 2023 Shame it's not worked out for him after last season's success and the rise and rise over the past 5 years. I'm guessing it was the difficulty of managing league and Europe so far this season that has been the end of him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union were boxing above their weight for the last 3 seasons and you couldn't expect this to be going on for ever, in my honest opinion.

Moderator Tommy 12,624 Posted November 15, 2023 Author Moderator Share Posted November 15, 2023 I also think that they are paying the price for completely changing their DNA. From underdog who gets the best out of "mediocre" players to Champions League club who signs big names. Probably too many steps at a time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may have been yourself but I remember the Bonucci signing was very much frowned upon and a typical example of the above. Good luck to him and I hope Union go back to what made them successful and don't totally ditch their morals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy 12,624 Posted November 21, 2023 Author Moderator Share Posted November 21, 2023 Kevin Schade parted ways with his agent, who made these disrespectful comments towards Union Berlin's new assistant Marie-Louise Eta. Saying he doesn't share his values and attutide. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Tommy 12,624 Posted November 25, 2023 Author Moderator Share Posted November 25, 2023 Apparently Raul is set to become the new Union coach. Announcement expected on Sunday. Sounds like they're still trying hard to become the "Big City Club" instead of focusing on their old philosophy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rucksackfranzose 4,391 Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 (edited) Union officially announced Nenad Bjelica as their new manager. That's an appointment more in line with Union's old philosophy than Raul would have been.
