👀 Fourth time already! Werder earning a reputation as a manager killer | OneFootball

Since today, we can give a piece of advice to Bundesliga coaches who are not quite secure in their positions: Don't travel to Bremen. Or host Werder in your own stadium. Because what happens then is predictable.

Joking aside – it's not that simple, of course. But this season, a trend is emerging, and before you know it, the next coach loses his job after a match against Werder Bremen.

Bremen doesn't even have to win all the time. The latest example shows this: Even a late draw in Bremen on Friday didn't save Dino Toppmöller's job as coach in the Main metropolis.

Today, Frankfurt officially announced their separation from him, sealing Bremen's reputation as the team that is quite often the last opponent a coach faces in his position.

This has already happened three times this season before Toppmöller.

On the second matchday, Erik ten Hag was unceremoniously dismissed from his position at Bayer Leverkusen after a 3:3 draw in Bremen.

Just one matchday later, Werder rolled over Mönchengladbach away with a 4:0 victory – afterward, Gerardo Seoane was no longer the coach of the Foals.

Werder won 2:1 at home against VfL Wolfsburg on the tenth matchday, sealing the next defeat in the losing streak and the end for Paul Simonis, who was the Wolves' coach for only about four months.

At the start of the second half of the season, the next coach had to pack his bags after dropping points against Bremen.

We are curious to see if the coach scare from the north will strike again during the second half of the season.
