    I am confused by the grammar, spelling and meaning of this statement. Is there an inside joke here?

    He faced technical predjudice as an american, he faced technical predudice as a 4th league player. THENNNN as an american during the bush years in germany there was and still is because of trump serious anti americanism. And he is coaching youth at that time?????
    In germany we would say he had "hard bread". He had so many on and off field obstecals to overcome. It just amazing. Nagelsmann and his name (10€ bottle water sounding name) are the only explanatory variables. That or he is a legit genius.

    Btw, he has a slight american accent but he speaks with a baverian accent (also strange, lol) so only a trained ear can hear his accent.

    that's neither of those.

    the players are Klement and Gonzalez. Pellegrino has like white/gray beard, while both guys look too young to be Gomez who I can't recall with a beard.

    Stuttgart's return to 2. Bundesliga play has not gone well. They lost 2-1 away to Wehen Wiesbaden last weekend and followed that up today with a 3-2 away loss to Holstein Kiel. Stuttgart went down to 10 in the 45th minute. Stuttgart have now fallen to the promotion playoff spot (3rd) although they are tied with second place Hamburg on points. In addition, they are only 1 point up on 4th place Heidenheim.

    Next up for Stuttgart is an important match on Thursday when they host Hamburg.

    they don't tie HSV anymore. HSV drew 1st place AB 0-0, so now HSV is 1 pts ahead and they also have better GD than Stuttgart too.

    He's come under a bit of pressure in the last two games, but VFB Stuttgart's sports department has given him public backing.

    Sporting director Mislintat: "We all agree internally that Rino will definitely be our coach next season. We can put the manager question aside, even if we lose to HSV. Rino does an outstanding job here"

    and vs rivals HSV, down 2-0 HT.

    a loss would make it 3 consecutive losses and 3/3 post return from corona.

    Free kick off the post in injury time. I thought Stuttgart had a winner there

    Stuttgart had a disappointing 2-1 road loss to 17th place Karlsruher today.

    They now sit in third 1 point behind Hamburg and 1 point in front of Heidenheim.

    Since the restart in play, Stuttgart have won only 8 points from 7 games.

    VfB fans are not in his corner anymore, since he insists on playing Marcin Kaminski (Def) over Marc-Oliver Kempf. Kaminski (in central defense) has been responsible for leaking goals, but Matarazzo won't replace him in the lineup. If VfB were scoring buckets of goals per game, it might not matter, but lack of scoring is another of VfB's woes.

    It's not Matarazzo's fault that the team has been poorly selected (that falls on previous admins + the current GM, Mislintat), but most fans don't think he's getting the most out of what he has available.

    Losing to derby-rivals Karlsruhe in such a shabby fashion, he lost a ton of goodwill today.

    Stuttgart taking care of business today vs. Sandhausen. It is 4-0 Stuttgart in the first half.

    If Stuttgart wins, it moves back into second place.
