What will Tim Walter bring to the Tigers amid talks of becoming Hull City manager

After recent talks with Acun Ilicali and Tan Kesler, German football coach Tim Walter is anticipated to be officially announced as the new manager of Hull City in the days to come.

After more than a century of games in charge at the Volksparkstadion, Walter left Hamburg in February. He has also directed the academy of Bayern Munich, Holstein Kiel, Stuttgart, and other clubs.

But what information do we have on the 48-year-old? The 1904 Club podcast caught up with German football analyst Matthew Karagich from the 2. Bundesliga program to learn more about Walter’s background and what City supporters may anticipate if he eventually takes over at the MKM Stadium.

“He’s had quite a strong recent history in 2. Bundesliga with teams like Holstein Kiel who last week gained promotion to the Bundesliga for the very first time, and that strong stint gave him really his first crack at a really big club which was Stuttgart,” he stated to the 1904 Club.

As a coach, he enjoys coaching aggressive football teams that play with a lot of possession and volume of shots. They enjoy pressing teams off the ball in an effort to contain them in their own defensive third. He adds a great deal of intrigue to football. One of the most common criticisms of his time at Hamburg is that, in the majority of cases, he doubles down and remains with what’s working when things don’t go as planned. He obviously possesses strong managerial abilities, but I believe there is a bit too much separation between the best and the worst.

He’s incredibly passionate and puts his heart on his sleeve. He is able to navigate the city, which is something he was able to accomplish in Hamburg for a considerable amount of time. Players seem to like him a lot, and fans would support him in any circumstance because he is quite skilled at doing so.”
