Hamburger SV Marching toward the abyss

The Danes are so commonly described as a funny bunch. And rightly so. One study, published a few days ago, they are the happiest people in Europe. Frank Arnesen, Sporting Director of the Dane and Hamburger SV, proved on Saturday night after the terrible idea at Bayern (0:5) as a worthy representative of his country.
Half an hour after the dismantling of the German record champion, he was asked if it was planned to the senior squad before the transfer window closed on 31 August to strengthen through further purchases. "Very willingly," replied Arnesen, the reporter stuck out his open palm, and added with a grin: ". If you can lend me some money"


This summer was the 54-year-olds in the difficult and challenging task to invent the new club tradition. Once participation has been missed in the international competition for the second consecutive year, the HSV is in an economic emergency.


In September, the Board will meet and disclose in connection to the session in all likelihood, that the club financial year 2010/11 has been completed with a decrease in the amount of six million euros. The Board of Management responsible for Boss Carl Edgar Jarchow Arnesen have imposed a radical austerity program. The salary budget has been reduced compared to the preseason by a quarter.Ad
Ten professionals were given, including the lead player Frank Rost, Ze Roberto and Ruud van Nistelrooy. Three million euros were available Arnesen. He scored five kickers who have not yet made all their quality in the German elite class to the test.
After the games at champions Borussia Dortmund (1:3), against promoted Hertha BSC (2-2) and now in Munich, the HSV is at second from bottom. The squad is lacking not only in class, but above all, experience. But there is no money to accomplish this change at short notice.
Oenning sad statistic
And there is no money to attract a coach can change into consideration. So firmly holds the leadership of Michael Oenning - although this has a chilling account. Of eleven league games he won with the HSV a single, 19 March against the first FC Köln (6:2).
It was the first game after the dismissal of Armin Veh, which led to the promotion of the former assistants. Hamburg is the second stop of the 45-year-old as head coach. In the first half of the 2009/10 season was the first responsibility Oenning FC Nuremberg. After three wins from 17 games, he was replaced during the winter break. So much for the facts.


No strategy
Worse than the depressing figures, however, is the fact that the coach is still looking for a coherent strategy for a "game idea" as it describes himself Oenning. Can be seen from the HSV nothing The competition phase is an experimental area.


In the previous four competitive matches - one in the Cup, three in the championship - the coach tried four different systems. "How it works properly as yet nothing has," he admitted. A pertinent analysis. Oenning failed to bring stability to the team. On the contrary, the ongoing tactical and personnel changes have unsettled the team completely.
"The way in which we have presented so far is not at all. Since fear is, I have this impression on the court. We are now with their backs to the wall, "said Captain Heiko Westermann fixed frustrated.
Oenning said after the match in Munich on a "tough defeat," and described it as "frightening" how many errors would undermine his players: "I never expected us to break away Sun With every goal conceded, we have lost self-confidence. It looked helpless. "
Self-critical


The Hamburg coach but was self-critical: "I have to take the boys under his protection. They had never played together in this formation. We must now quickly find a team that brings us into the fast lane. There is much work ahead of us - and I am challenged to find the right solutions. "
At this statement Oenning is measured, this coming Saturday is for the HSV a "final" on the program: In their own stadium in Cologne, the Hamburg meeting, it is the basement battle between the penultimate and the last. "I expect a reaction of defiance", looking ahead Oenning.


Some veterans are already seeing black for their club. "The guys have just happened without a fight. So you can not win a game. We may not be present. Because something has to change quickly. The arguments for Oenning I want to hear quickly, "urged HSV legend Uwe Seeler, who was supported by Manfred Kaltz, in his opinion.


"The tendency is clearly downward. Oenning course is under pressure and is dependent on results, "said the Hamburg record player (581 Bundesliga appearances):" After five games we will see where the HSV is. Of which is dependent on the coach. "After the match against Cologne on the HSV occurs at Werder Bremen.
Sports director Arnesen provide closed despite the catastrophic occurrence so far from the team, the coach questioned. "What we showed is not enough. But one should not forget that we have played in Dortmund and Bayern, with whom we are in the current situation simply can not measure, "said Arnesen.
Arnesen with patience


It is clear, "as well as completely normal that it now becomes restless in the environment that make people worry. But this pressure we can not get near us. I support the players and I support Michael Oenning ".
That the personnel upheaval could lead to the demise of this summer, it does not believe the sports director. Such things take time and patience, both to bring it, "I'm in training every day and see how to work hard. It will pay off. I am convinced that we learn from our mistakes and get better and better. This confidence I will not take me so quickly, "said Arnesen. As befits a Dane.
