What is there in the collective unconscious of the brilliant Brazilian Diego Germanic period Werder Bremen? Not much, in fact, a departure in the offseason 2009 in Italy, Juventus Turin, supposedly legitimize his star status and a return to the fold earlier than expected in the Bundesliga. A failure that results in a negative delta of 12 million euros into the coffers of the Old Lady. Crash? VfL Wolfsburg Misimovic orphan! Magath has nothing to do, the manager Dieter Hoeness who was then in command and the country as the Volkswagen is no expense in recent years are negotiated fees of 24 million rather than three years as desired by the player but in four years. A detail that reminds me of an anecdote I was told about Mr. Hoeness. Looking for a new coach, former manager Ralf Rangnick called continuously, then free him, saying "Geld spielt keine Rolle" (money plays no role)! VfL Wolfsburg and yes its average attendance of less than 30,000, is mostly that.
Meisterschale 2009, Abstiegskampf 2011!
May 14, 2011, 1530, final day of the Bundesliga, VfL Wolfsburg moves in the TSG 1899 Hoffenheim. The referee whistle goes for the start of the meeting. This is a crucial part for "Wolf" (Wolves), while ranking fifteenth and vying with Fohlen (the Colts) Borussia Moenchengladbach and Adler (Eagles) of Eintracht Frankfurt a place among the elite. Huge surprise departure, Spielmacher, the Brazilian playmaker is absent, not even on the bench! Is he hurt? One wonders. The former Auxerre Kahlenberg plays the firefighters on duty and served as No. 10. Wolfsburg finally won out 3-1 but not without having spent twenty-one minutes virtually on the floor below. The German champion 2009 can wipe his brow beading. The wind of the bullet came close.
Finally, the explanation for the absence of Diego is revealed in this crucial meeting, Felix Magath has decided not to permanent appointments reproaching his lack of motivation in training. Playmaker with big egos did not accept the award and the coach went directly, leaving his teammates to fend for themselves. Stranded.
The "Diegoisme" the test of German fire
"What he did is inexcusable! It hurts the team." So says the captain Marcel Schäfer VfL. Felix Magath's side to give further details "when he saw he did not hold, he left the group meeting. I have never experienced such a situation in my career."
An apology can always find him: VfL not going well for the title of 2009. No European qualification in 2010. Misimovic, Dzeko Barzagli and wish to leave. Kahlenberg Ziani and are no longer in the odor of sanctity. Dieter Hoeness, for commercial reasons, hiring the Englishman Steve McClaren ... trojan horse in the Bundesliga, which decides to play at 4-2-3-1 while Diego is at home behind two strikers ... Volkswagen becomes trabant under the command of the engineer large-Briton, who just like the British car industry, looks after its leather and stitching, but develops, in particular, very bad drivers. At 26, the great number 10 of Bremen is only a shadow of himself and is especially noticeable throughout the season by conduct on the field at the edge of tolerable. As this meeting of the 28th day against Eintracht Frankfurt, where he voluntarily crushes the Achilles heel of Ochs, his partner next year VfL ... if the Brazilian left. "Diego is a Drecksack" is quick to say the captain of the Adler ... We do not translate these words. Diego is unforgivable and the popular press and populist pulls no punches: the titles appear and insulting names for birds raining down: the "Verpisser Affäre" (we will not translate here either) is born!
"We can not tolerate such behavior"
Felix Magath wants to meet with lawyers from UEFA and FIFA to ban the Brazilian to continue his career. Of wishful thinking will not tomorrow. Diego received a "formal" and a heavy fine. But another solution exists and it is the voice of a great egg of the Board of the Volkswagen group, incidentally Chairman of the Supervisory Board of VfL Wolfsburg, Francisco Javier Garcia Sanz as the burst is part "we can not tolerate such behavior "in a nutshell if Diego, under contract until 2014, can not find a buyer for a $ 10 million, it will start next season in the fourth German division.
