FCB coach Patrick Rahmen believes in staying. The decision should be made on Monday after an internal meeting.
The FCB said goodbye on Sunday with a 2-2 win against GC in the winter break. Again only a draw, for the 4th time in a row in the Super League. Basel ended the first half of the season one point ahead of series champions YB, but also 7 points behind leader FC Zurich.
Accordingly, the level of satisfaction in the FCB executive suite is limited. In the last few days there have been more and more voices that the days of Patrick Rahmen as coach of Basel could be numbered. Compared to the view Owner David Degen said that he often missed the right attitude in the team. That doesn’t exactly speak for the trainer. The FCB wants to analyze the sporting situation in an internal meeting on Monday and then decide whether it will be castling on the sidelines or not.
Compared to SRF Degen did not want to comment on the trainer question after the disturbing draw against GC – despite the interview. SRF reporter Jeff Baltermia classified Degen’s non-appearance as “self-protection”. The reason for his rejection is probably that Degen wanted to avoid giving up things in a troubled state that he shouldn’t.
The framework remains confident
The rumors did not go unnoticed by Frame himself, as he said on the Sunday after the game: “Of course I notice and don’t think it’s great,” said the 52-year-old. However, it is part of the coaching business to endure such unpleasant situations, he added.
Although the signs of saying goodbye have increased in the last few hours, Rahmen still believes in staying. “I will deliver my arguments at the meeting and the club management will take stock. And then I assume that we will go into the second half of the season together. “
