I am glad that we got rid of Voeller now. It was largely his fault. How can you go into such a game with *one real forward* ? What the f.... did Voeller think ? That Latvia plays draw vs the Netherlands ?
When he finally brought the second forward after the half time break, the team played alot better, but it was too late. Voeller's strategies were much too cowardish, except maybe in the game vs the Netherlands (there, the 90% defense / 10% offense strategy was probably appropriate). He apparently had no real trust in his team.
I think it is pretty clear who will be Voeller's successor: Ottmar Hitzfeld.
