Bremen – Iconic trainer Felix Magath had already identified himself as a possible savior on Sunday evening SV Werder Bremen brought into play, now with Ivan Klasnic Another ex-Bremen player made it clear that he wanted to help the club in the current difficult sporting situation. “They have to bring me and Toni (Editor’s note: Ailton) into the team so that there is a good atmosphere again, and then they will score goals again,” the former Werder striker told “Sport1”. Although this is not possible as a coach, both the now 46-year-old and his former congenial strike partner would Ailton always available for any support. “We would be willing to help.

In addition to the lack of goals, the former Croatian international is missing the necessary relaxedness in the team. “I think there’s something wrong with the team.

But it’s also difficult for him to give reasons why the 56-year-old didn’t work on the Weser. “Maybe he was too inexperienced for the Bundesliga. He did a very good job in the second division, you have to take your hat off to that. It’s difficult to say why it didn’t work out now,” explains Klasnic and adds: “Maybe he didn’t have the types of players that are necessary for his playing system.” (bvo)
