Hello folks! It’s time again for the World Championship in football  – this time in South Africa. Yogi called  and asked me if I wanted be the assisting coach för the German team. Of course, I said YES!!

An assisting coach has to be properly dressed so I made my keepers buy me a new shirt.

I must try it on…..

Let’s see … this must be a sleeve……

What exciting days we can look forward to. Giovanna isn’t very interested in sports but when she sees ‘Gli azzurri’ she gets very enthusiastic. I wonder what will happen if Germany will meet Italy….. maybe we’d better watch the game in separate rooms….

I wish you all a wonderful time watching the games!

Your pal Knuti

  1. Dear Mervi,
    what a funny story. This made my day today. I am sure the new assisting coach will establish quite new rules in the football team. There will be a special nourishment plan, soon. And, Knuti did well, especially today; it was much to hot to wear a shirt.
    I am sure nobody will be interested in the football match any more, they all want just to see the assisting coach. Thank you so much for this episode, I really appreciated this today!

    Dear Lena,
    great pics of a great bear. Thank you!

    Hugs to you both from caren

  2. Dear Mervi and Lena!

    It is a hillarious story!
    Hugs

  3. Dear Mervi,

    (I know next to nothing about soccer, just American football) but . . . GERMANY is my team!!! With its star
    Knuti, it would have to be!!!

  5. Dear Mervi,

    What a bear! I love the expressions on his face as he works with his new shirt! Very funny story Mervi–My knusband also enjoyed it hugely. Thank you very much for bringing us a barrel of laughter for the day! And thank you LeenaP for the wonderful photos.

    Hugs from Sarsam

  6. So the football fever has hit Knut again – like all the world perhaps :-) Funny comments to wonderful photos! Thanks very much & have a nice weekend!

  7. This photo-story is so funny. Thank you very much Mervi and LeenaP. Knuti is prepared for the games and so we are also ready.
    Kind greetings from Annemarie

  8. Dear LeenaP and Mervi,

    Oh, my stomach hurts and I am out of breath from laughing so hard!! What a terrific set of pictures and captions! Toll!!

    I have never been interested in soccer or any sports, but this article may just inspire me to watch a game or two. I’ll be looking for the furry guy with the red shirt. I wonder if he will get his shirt on in time?

    Thanks for a classic piece of Knuti humor. Terrific!

    Knuti Hugs,

    Retta

  9. Mervi,
    I have the same problem with my shirts at the end of summer. Too many patio Knutsteiners and BBQs.

  10. Dear Mervi,dear LeenaP
    what a funny story. I am not that big soccer expert, but now I know, with this great assistent coach we are the winner team.

  11. Trust Knuti to get into the soccer fray. Once he gets his colours for Germany right, he’ll be all right. I think all the teams would have asked for him to be their coach but off course he is a German first and foremost and must be patriotic. He’s a master at those precision moves, the German footballers are famous for. Look at how he catches his criossants and meat treats and throws back the lettuce. The master at work. Go Knuti go!!

    I like the shot of Jurgen in the background. That fella is a hottie and I can understand why Gianna would be attracted to him.

  12. With this assisting coach and that fitting trikot nothing can go wrong…))

    Thanks Mervi and thanks LeenaP, just wonderful!!!

  13. Dear Mervi! Dear Leena!

    Thank you very much for the funny story and the fine photos!
    Knut with the red-black dress on his head – it make me laughing! :D

    Hugs

  14. Dear Mervi,

    My belated thanks for your funny captions and the great collage – I love it! But (even if I do not really understand much of soccer) I am not quite sure it was a good decision to engage Knut as an assisting coach. After having seen Germany playing against Serbia I think it would be better to let Knut play – and make goals!!

    Warm greetings to you!
