Xherdan Shaqiri travels to the USA, however it’s a bit like coming home to FC Basel for him. For people he knows like athletic director Gigi Hitz. For a club where he plays first, and secondly, the pressure is much less.
There he will also be able to feel that he is an indisputably large number, as I recently found out that his problem, he needs this feeling that he is indispensable. Chicaco Fire will be the oasis of happiness where everyone embraces.
Xherdan no longer has an ace up his sleeve to return to a big club like Bayern, Inter or Liverpool. And medium-sized clubs can not afford it financially. So go to unfit gym heaven.
Five weeks without a serious fight for Qatar
The transfer is also very problematic for the national team. In MLS, where many miserable superstars are ending their careers, he will not find the same performance culture as in Europe. So this becomes a mathematical problem.
Add to that travel and plan to play in the US. The season ends there in early October if you don’t qualify for the playoffs. And you almost have to assume that in Chicago, where the team has qualified only twice in the past 10 seasons, that means: Xherdan will have to go through five weeks to get the national team moving ahead of the World Cup in Qatar. Certainly without serious fights. Probably in FC Lugano.
Murat Yakin should take this into account when nominating the team. Coach Nati is not known for taking names into account. Al-Nati has proven that he can function without Shakiri. In any case, he is jeopardizing his position in the national team by moving to the United States!
