Even that would be a disappointment 5 hours ago, davehibb said: Bombshell! yep, media's going crazy) Thinking about it, though, by the end of next season, Jenssen will have been at the club for 9 years and has achieved literally everything in the game, with Stuttgart considered as the most reputable club in the world by this point. The only thing that's missing, as rightly pointed out by @BoxToBox is the glory of the Euros. So, with one more season to develop our players even further and with a ridiculous amount of talented youngsters coming through the youth ranks to slowly form the 2nd (hopefully just as golden) generation, Klaas has established an incredible legacy at this club and the Euros will either make or break that cherry on his goodbye party cake....

LPQR Posted October 20, 2016 Author Share Posted October 20, 2016 March 2024 two dismal matches and we're out of the CL after being beaten 4-3 on aggregate in the first knock-out round by a very strong PSG side a bit of bad luck in the second tie, with us leading 2-0 up until the 84th minute, a score which would have seen us through, however seconds after Gnabry's goal, Guedes fires a 35 metre shot past Bernd Leno to knock us out of the competition well, you can't win it every year, can you? Youth Intake quite disappointing by our standards, really, but Shahram looks great and another much needed defensive prospect makes his way in the U19's team. I have a lot of right fullbacks already and probably will retrain some of them to develop their weaker foot and start playing on the left as well, just in case switching to a back four becomes one of Jenssen's ideas.

LPQR Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 May 2024 - Sweet goodbyes to the Bundesliga Klaas Jenssen says his goodbyes to German football with what must be the most ridiculous performance in the Bundesliga in Stuttgart's entire history: 121 goals in 34 matches (nearly 4 per game on average) means we have scored nearly twice as much as second-placed Dortmund and conceded just two more goals then them, making our defense the second best in the league. The *Rapp-Bundt-Eggestein trio has reached its peak and completely tore into opposition defenses this season. Eggestein equalled Gerd Muller's record for most goals scored in the Bundesliga in a single season and Bundt was absolutely superb with 18 goals and 19 assists in 27 league appearances *although Rapp narrowly missed the podiums I believe he performed sensationally in the 20 appearances he has made in the league this season some of the craziest results this year: Competitions we won every competition we were involved in, apart from the Champions League after two of the most underwhelming performances of the season against PSG Overall, we only lost 2 competitive matches this season. The away match at PSG and the away trip at Mainz, where they took their revenge with a 1-0 victory for the 8-0 trashing they received at the Mercedes-Benz arena Squad/Player performances Another interesting development at the VfB camp has been Jenssen's succesful integration of the Libero in his new tactical system. Having won the Bundesliga at the start of April, Jenssen got bored and decided to re-train Benjamin Gallus to a Libero, as Orban is getting older and older and Gallus seemed a perfect fit for the role. Stuttgart won comfortably the remaining matches of the Bundesliga with this system as well as winning the German Cup after beating Gladbach in the final More detailed information about the tactical development in this post in the tactics section of the forum* *please note I have played the first half of the 24/25 season purely for the purpose of having more time to develop and experiment with the tactic, Jenssen will still retire at the end of the European Championship this summer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
