On Sunday afternoon, coach Lucien Favre at Borussia Dortmund was dismissed.
The Swiss headed BVB for almost two and a half years, but was unable to win a title during that time.
After the 1: 5 (1: 1) against VfB Stuttgart, the club, which will face Sevilla FC in the round of 16 of the Champions League, now saw their goals for the season at risk.
"As an expert and as a person, Lucien Favre is beyond any doubt," Hans-Joachim Watzke was quoted in the press release.
On Monday, the club boss went into detail at BILD.
Watzke spoke about ...
... the decision to part with Favre:
“It was very difficult for me.
It never feels good when you have to part with a trainer.
That is always a turning point.
He won two runner-up championships with us, it was a mostly successful time.
But when you realize that the story is over, you have to act.
It was difficult for us, but we saw the need.
All decision-makers were of one mind.
I've already told the team that I'm very grateful for this time.
Lucien is someone who has to be very personable as a person. "

... the role of Reus and Hummels, who had criticized very clearly after the 1: 5:
"Your opinion played no role at all.
After the game I had other worries than watching any interviews, and I didn't even know them.
We
sat down
with Zorc (
sports director, editor
) and Kehl (
team manager, editor
)
immediately after the game
. "
... the third coach release after Jürgen Klopp, before Tuchel and Bosz had been fired:
“It is indeed the case that these two to three year rhythms have become commonplace.
This can hardly be avoided nowadays because the whole topic has become more and more intense.
Of course everyone dreams of working successfully with a trainer for five to six years, but where else is that the case? "
... the prospect of whether Favre's successor Edin Terzic can take off like Hans-Dieter Flick at Bayern:
“Bayern won the jackpot with Flick, but that didn't matter to us.
We brought Edin back to us in 2018 because we noticed in the Bosz case that there was a vacuum and that we are not prepared.
So we already knew in 2018 that Edin Terzic was our man. "

... Terciz's chance to hold the office longer than until summer:
“Nothing is clear at all.
We have agreed until June 30th.
keep going.
In addition, no decision has been made in either direction. "
... Gladbach's coach Rose's release clause in the summer:
“I don't even know if that's true, I'm not interested either.
I think it's borderline that we're talking about coaches who are under contract with other clubs.
That doesn't concern me at the moment. "
... his expectations of the team:
“What I expect is that they will now show in the game against Bremen that they want.
Everyone has to go ten percent over the limit.
The team must now show that they have understood.
I'm very confident about that. "
