I was trying to remember the German that we were linked with when we plumped for Chris Coleman as manager, and after much searching I found a report saying we were linked with Klaus Topmoeller. I wanted to find out how he did as a manager after being linked with us. He went on to manage Hamburg. Wikipedia says the following:
Toppmöller became coach of Hamburger SV on 23 October 2003. However, after the team fell to last place in the league, and Toppmöller used strange tactics, formations and out of position players (such as midfielder Sergej Barbarez in defence), he was sacked on 17 October 2004.
Reminds me of someone else....
