1. FC Köln: Beierlorzer on dismissal: “Support taken”

Cologne –

After leaving 1. FC Köln, Achim Beierlorzer (53) also failed at 1. FSV Mainz 05 – and is currently looking for a new job. But now the Franconian complains that he had too little backing at 1. FC Köln. After 13 games, one win and a point average of only 0.77 points, Beierlorzer had to leave. The former Cologne coach, on the other hand, likes the fact that FC is now holding on to Markus Gisdol (51) in a similarly difficult situation.

He came to Cologne with high hopes, but after a few weeks it was over for him: Achim Beierlorzer, brought in from Regensburg by Armin Veh (60) for a fee, took offense at the FC club and team.

But the decision came too early for him. “The time in Cologne was too short,” said the coach in an interview with transfermarkt.de. “It would have been nice if I had been given the opportunity to develop something at FC.”

By Vehs from being the sports director ten days earlier, he was “in a certain way deprived of support”. That is why Beierlorzer now praises the adherence to coach Gisdol.

“The way it is currently being practiced with Horst Heldt and Markus Gisdol, I think it’s really good. It also has to be the case that you go through bad times together and stand by your trainer. It is well known that a change of coach does not always help. “

Markus Gisdol turned things around at 1. FC Köln

In Beierlorzer’s case, it has to be said in retrospect that the change was high time. The rescue then came thanks to a series under Gisdol. Beierlorzer hired FC at Mainz 05 less than two weeks after leaving. There Bo Svensson (41) is now trying to save the tricky situation after Beierlorzer’s dismissal and the hapless work of Jan-Moritz Lichte (41).
