The interesting story of former Shaqiri coach: He can play anywhere, he's special

It was the last day of the 2009/10 season of the Swiss Super League, and all eyes were on Seydou Doumbia. The editor of the table was Basel while playing the final match as Young Boys' guest.

The editor of the table was Basel while playing the final match as Young Boys' guest. Basel was only in charge of the goals, a draw would give them the title. Young Boys would be the first title in 24 years, Periscop reports.

Dougina was the best scorer of Young Boys' team with 30 goals mostly scored at the Swiss Championship since 1988 and during that time had scored 11 goals in the last 10 championships.

If it were a player who would give Young Boys the triumph after 24 years, it was certainly Seydou Dou.

He would have faced it during the match a new defender who played the left guard's position that match. His name was Gerdan Shaqiri.

First Shaqiri as a left-back for Basel

Valentin Stocker donated a fantastic pass to Carlito to put Basel in the 39th minute and then crossed to Scott Chipperfield to double the guest's supremacy.

Basel won the score of 2 to 0 winning the title, while the match in question was frustrating for the tall star, Zambia.

To follow up, a week later Basel won the Swiss Cup, while a new talent like Shaqiri continued to impress with his presentations.

” Shaqiri played against the best player at the Swiss championship”, said then Basel coach Thorsten Fink for Bleacher Report.

” We had a final against Young Boys and he played as the left guard against Doumbia. Dobby scored 30 goals that season and you didn't see him in this fight”.

” Shaqiri can play in any position. When he played as his left defense, he played extremely well. And also for the right side. He can play like a ten. At first, I thought he was the best left protector I've ever seen. But he wanted to play the attack”, Fink discovered at the time.

Zegra football player did not continue his defensive career to be Basel's top player. Fink's successor, Heiko Vogel, placed Shaqiri on the side position. During that time, more precisely in 2011 they won the title as they won the title and Cup in the following year (2012).

He needs a coach who gives him a lot of faith. Then he can set the games. In the big fights, he's always crucial. A lot of big players playing big fights, you don't see them. But Gerdan wants these fights”

There are players you try to motivate, but that doesn't help. If you motivated Shaqiri, he repaid your faith”, Fink confessed.

Then his career did not go as expected, Periscope broadcasts.

In 2012, after the triumph in the championship and in the Cup, Shaqiri decided to leave for Bayern Munchen, who did not have individual successes but still won the Champions League under the direction of the Jupp Heynckes.

The transfer to Inter and Stoke City weren't right for him until this year he decided to leave for Liverpool, with which he was experiencing an unforgettable season. /Periscopi
