Just had a look on down at the Mac forum, someone said on their a guy called ‘Vinkler’ has been down there today, definitely some substance to it.
Worked together In the past so maybe just a friendly visit. Can’t see him leaving Stendel in the lurch.
This would be devastating, and it would put massive pressure on Stendel. Without their families, and with Stendels English coming along, but not as good as Winklers, it could be really isolating. That's before the impact on the squad. If we get into the realms of starting from scratch every time we have a flurry of success.... whats the point? It's vital they keep all the first team and coaching staff this January, absolutely vital.
Christoph Buhler is still there at the moment as assistant coach, I think they know each other from there Dortmund days so hopefully they’ll want some kind of continuity.
Wouldn't be too quick Siewert has worked with Winkler before, it's not that their both German they do have previous, which Stendel and Winkler don't
