Eyal Berkowitz said this week that it's time to stop with national team coaches, who come with binders and titles and lead us nowhere.
He and Avi Nemani are ready to come for free ("Who will hear what it is like to coach the team? All three training sessions a year," Radio Tel Aviv).
Yes, let's really go back to the neighborhood.
We will get to the concluding training after we quarrel with the Hapoel activist, forget about the scouting, stop measuring data and maybe on the way we will sneak into the Asian house, where we may be a little better.
The association must select a foreign coach for the team, just to escape the local swamp and breathe a little clearer air.
Barak Bachar may already be suitable, after all with success there is no arguing, but for what?
At the age of 42 he can come with a good agent to a European club and build for himself a wonderful career, one that suits a star at his level.
The team, however, may stick it out for a few years and may even retire early.
Let him not worry, his time will come.

I do not underestimate Klinger and Ben Shimon nor the confusion and certainly not Alon Hazan, but their appointment does not bring with it a line for a team that needs something else, especially now that the quality is not spilled from the staff and Zahavi, the Messianic King, is already signaling an end at 34.
It can be said of Rotensteiner that he failed and it will not be far from the truth.
After all, like his predecessors, he did not know how to bring us to the Promised Land, but at least he was different.
Reminds you that even after the late Richard Müller Nielsen left, they realized how much he had changed the culture here and managed to get us out of the Middle East fixation.

Not every foreign coach is a suitable address for the heads of the association, but the fact that in recent years Maccabi Tel Aviv has seen coaches like Garcia, Sousa, and Ivica who have built a new path here and there are quite a few coaches around who specialize in taking small teams and changing the disk.

It may cost a lot and there is no insurance certificate that we will succeed this time, but in my opinion it is better to return to the atmosphere of depressing business and the loud quarrels in the heart of the neighborhood.
Need a foreign coach, with receipts, ready for the challenge, but especially one who will not knock any of us account.
Were we wrong?
Fixed!
