Kalou hits out at former hertha berlin manager klinsmann
It seems like there's some controversy brewing!
According to reports, Hertha Berlin's Ivorian striker, Salomon Kalou, has taken aim at his former manager, Joachim Klinsmann, who was in charge of the German club from 2009 to 2010.
Kalou, who played for Hertha Berlin from 2014 to 2019, has accused Klinsmann of not giving him enough playing time during his tenure. In an interview with German newspaper, Bild, Kalou stated:
"Klinsmann didn't give me the chance to play. He preferred other players. I was always on the bench, and when I did play, it was only for a few minutes. I was frustrated because I knew I could do more."
Kalou also claimed that Klinsmann's tactics were too defensive-minded, which hindered the team's attacking potential. He added:
"Klinsmann's style of play was too defensive. We didn't create enough chances, and when we did, we didn't score. It was frustrating because I knew we could do better."
Klinsmann, who is a German football legend and former national team manager, has not publicly responded to Kalou's comments yet. However, this controversy is likely to spark some interesting discussions in the football world!
What do you think about Kalou's accusations? Should Klinsmann have given him more playing time?
