With just one match remaining in the Bundesliga campaign, and their top-flight future hanging in the balance, Werder Bremen have turned to club legend Thomas Schaaf.
The term “legend” is too often bandied about football circles, but in Schaaf’s case it almost doesn’t do justice to his status in Werder folklore.
After all, this is a man who has held almost every role possible at the club – he’s been both kitman and bus driver at different junctures – and was involved in three of Werder’s four league championships, five of their six DFB Cup triumphs and sole UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup glory while serving as either player or coach.
