Beckenbauer urges Klinsmann to stay on

Aku ingat, aku sorang jer yang nak suruh si "Golden Bomber" Klinsmann ni stay sebagai Coach Germany...rupa-rupanya si "Kaiser" ni pun harap agar Klinssmann stay sebagai Coach. Sebagai orang lama, sudah tentu "Kaiser" ni arif dalam perjalanan bolasepak Germany. Dari segi taktikal dan pembangunan bola sepak Germany, aku memang sangat setuju jika Klinsmann meneruskan tugasnya membimbing pasukan bolasepak Germany. Beliaulah yang telah menaikkan nama-nama pemain muda Germany di mata dunia.Aku harap minggu ni di kedudukan 3-4 9 Julai nanti, Germany dapat mengalahkan pasukan Scolari iaitu Portugal, sambil juga bverharap Miroslav Klose menggondol Golden Shoe. Aku bukan suka sangat dengan si Scolari ni, eksen jer lebih. Kena lagi Pasukan Portugal ni ada C. Ronaldo, lagilah tahap benci aku dengan Portugal ni tinggi. Mamat opera ni bakal menghancurkan seni permainan bolasepak sejati. Walaupun Portugal ada Figo, pemain yang menarik minat aku terhadap skill individu beliau...tetapi selagi Scolari dan Mamat opera tu ada dalam skuad bolasepak Portugal. Selagi tulah aku tak suka team ni. Lagi satu aku berharap sanagt pasukan Kuda Tua, France menang untuk World Cup tahun ni. Biar peminat-peminat Italy dalam Forum cari tu meraung..hehehe...jahat betul aku ni. Asalnya aku sokong Italy juga selepas Germany, tapi para peminat Italy dalam Forum Cari tu eksen lebih....siaplah korang, kalau Italy kalah nanti. Kalau Italy menang pun..aku nothing to lose.

Franz Beckenbauer said on Thursday he hoped Jurgen Klinsmann would stay on as coach because the job he has started rebuilding Germany football is not finished yet. Germany's FIFA World Cup™ Organising Committee president, who led West Germany to the world title as a player in 1974 and coach in 1990, praised Klinsmann for taking his young team to the semi-final even though he has long been a critic of the coach.
"The team has faith in him, he has faith in the team, and those are the best possible conditions," Beckenbauer told reporters. "I think he should stay on. He should finish what he's started."
A huge majority in Germany appear to agree. Among 1,002 Germans polled on 5 July by the Forsa research institute, 93 per cent said they wanted Klinsmann to continue and 95 per cent said they were proud of the team's FIFA World Cup performance.
Goalkeeper Jens Lehmann also urged Klinsmann to continue, saying his own international future could depend on the coach's decision to stay or go.
"Jurgen has introduced a new approach to the national team, bringing in new training methods and a sense of individual responsibility for all the players," Lehmann said at a news conference on Thursday.
"If he says he's leaving I'll be very disappointed. We'll all be encouraging him to stay on."
Beckenbauer had been critical of everything from Klinsmann's decision to live in California and commute back and forth to Germany as well as the former striker's emphasis on high-scoring, attacking football.
Beckenbauer said, however, no one should expect Klinsmann, whose two-year contract runs out after the FIFA World Cup, to make an instant decision.
Some German football officials have said he must decide soon because Germany's UEFA EURO 2008 qualifying campaign begins in eight weeks. Germany's next match is a friendly against Sweden on 16 August before their first qualifier against Ireland on 2 September.
"I think it's important that he doesn't let himself be influenced by the impressions of the World Cup," said Beckenbauer, who quit himself after winning the world crown as West Germany coach in 1990.
Beckenbauer, who is also a German football association (DFB) director, was among those who hired Klinsmann two years ago after two other candidates turned them down.
"He's doing exactly the right thing now," said Beckenbauer. "He's going to go home, discuss it all with his family. He's going to let the impressions of the World Cup go by and will hopefully make the right decision."
Klinsmann featured in Beckenbauer's team which won the FIFA World Cup in 1990.
