Tenhager s five crimes were exposed: Leverkusen s worst coach in history pays 86,000 pounds a day!

Hage was urgently fired by the club after only two Bundesliga games in Leverkusen, and his term of office was short and disaster.

The former Manchester United coach replaced Xavi Alonso, who led the team to win the championship, but suffered a crushing defeat at Leverkusen - not only failed to win any league game, but was also directly rated as "the worst coach in history" by club insiders. His departure cost is also quite high: due to the combined salary and termination fee, Tenghager took an average of £86,000 a day, with a total of up to £5.2 million.

German media Biography revealed five core reasons why Leverkusen's senior management chose to take action quickly.

1. Centrifugal: Unable to integrate into the team and the staff. It is reported that since taking office in July, Tenghager has been able to establish good relationships with any players or staff, even including the assistant team he joined.

He refused to give an incentive speech before the first match against Hoffenheim, and the game ended up losing 1-2. Many are confused by his weird approach to "downplaying his debut."

2. Transfer Dispute: Only recommend players of your own agency

The second problem is transfer operations. Tenhager was accused of excessive interference in the club's signing program and recommended only players from his agency SEG Football.

SEG's Rasmus Hoylund, Onana and Anthony all joined Manchester United through Tenhager that year, and the transfer fee was extremely high.

Tenhager publicly rejected Zach's departure, but he joined Sunderland a few days later, and he also publicly opposed Granit Zach's transfer to Sunderland - although there had been an agreement within the club. As a result, Leverkusen's senior management directly ignored his opinions and let Zacha go a few days later.

What's even more embarrassing is that he learned about the deal even after Real Madrid's former player Lucas Vazquez completed the signing - which directly exposed the complete failure of his communication with sports director Simon Rollfies.

The sports director signed Lucas Vasquez without discussing with Tenhager. The training method is weird: force players to push ups

The third reason comes from the training ground. Tenhager asked players to do push-ups frequently during training and tie the importance of this content with technical training.

In contrast, the former Alonso's training focuses more on tactical and technical details and is popular among players. Tenhager's excessively long and "boring" physical training not only makes the players lose motivation, but also brings complaints.

4. The club atmosphere is indifferent: the loss of cohesion

The senior management of Leverkusen found that Tenghager's cold style quickly deteriorated the entire club atmosphere. The atmosphere at the training base and home court has become depressed, and the coaching staff, nutritionists, physiotherapists, etc. are all disheartened.

Especially in the comparison of Alonso's brilliant memories, Tenghager's "zero leadership" seems even more dazzling.

5. Tactical Disaster: There is no system at all

What ultimately crushed the camel was the result of the game itself. After losing to Hoffenheim in the first round, Leverkusen was tied with two goals when facing Werder Bremen who was dissatisfied with the establishment in the second round.

The players are full of doubts about Tenghager's "no tactics" style of play. They lack overall ideas on the court and can only rely on personal performance - but the effect is bleak.

For this reason, the club management even reflected on whether he should be fired earlier.

Who will take over next?

It is reported that former Tottenham coach Ang Postkoglu is one of the popular candidates, while two former Bundesliga coaches, Marco Ross and Edin Terzić, are also under investigation. Leverkusen will make the final decision on international match day.
