The journalist, author of the book 'Programmed to fail' defended coach Volker Finke. According to him Finke was victim of "too much interference" in his work during the last World Cup.

At the time of the balance sheet of the next African Cup of Nations qualifiers, the journalist specialized in crises within the indomitable Lions, Jean-Bruno Tagne, welcomed the changes in the selection faced during the World Cup in Brazil. "It was a small renaissance," he said at the time to raise the qualification of Cameroon, during a speech on Radio France Internationale on November 17, 2014.


The author of the book "Programmed to fail" - which dealt with the failure of the indomitable Lions in the 2010 World Cup defended Volker Finke. For him, the German coach could not manage his team at the 2014 world because he faced "too much interference" and too many players who had caporalised the team. He pointed out that the role of Samuel Eto was negative and full of consequences.


"When you coach, and you have in your team a player who is received by the president of the Republic with his image broadcast in loop on public television, a player who has a bodyguard to himself, who does not eat with the other players supposedly because they want to poison him, and is not wearing the same Jersey as the other players, obviously, it is impossible to foster unity and serenity in the team.

"Volker Finke understood how Cameroon is "For the reporter of the daily Le Jour, the forced retirement of the former Pumas did a great good to the indomitable Lions. "Putting away a gentleman as Samuel Eto solved 90% of the locker room problems facing this team."


And today, it is much quieter, and is hoping that the old demons of the Lions will not reappear. Jean-Bruno saluted the role of Volker Finke, who in his opinion "has played a very important role" in the recent success of the indomitable Lions. "Finke has understood how Cameroon is", revealed Jean - Bruno Taba.


The Member of the national Council of communication also reveals that if former Vice captains Nicolas Nkoulou and Enoh Eyong remained in the selection, it is because Volker Finke endorsed them.
