FC Schalke 04 – Dietmar Hamann dismantles the professionals after applause 0-5: “Shame, cheek, no character”

Former national player Dietmar Hamann couldn’t believe the way Schalke lost in Wolfsburg on “Sky”. “What these players allow themselves is a disgrace for a traditional club.

Hamann criticizes Schalke professionals: “They think they are better than they are”

Hamann continues: “The players suffer from excessive self-confidence. They think they are better than they are. Christian Gross had to leave because some players complained that he couldn’t get them out of there. If I was Mustafi, I see who plays a role in the change of coach and he’s involved in all the goals today, that’s a player who didn’t play for Arsenal and there’s a reason for that. “

Hamann didn’t realize there was a rebellion against Wolfsburg, as S04 coach Dimitrios Grammozis put it: “I didn’t see it.”

However, Schalke classified defeat after defeat (already 17 this season). “They get an average of 2.5 goals. The easiest thing in football is to defend. It doesn’t take a lot of skill, just solidarity and will. They can’t even do that. I feel sorry for the Schalke fans,” Hamann said. .

Conclusion: “What this team offers is just a joke.”
