VISTA! Play-off 1 has started with a bang: the Standard was good, Racing Genk better, but Club Brugge is the best. About that on the first sight, the three remaining title contenders, and how big the damage is in the respective losers Antwerp, Anderlecht, and AA Gent, in the first of the play-off edition of VISTA!, our weekly webcast in collaboration with Proximus Sports. Guest was former Anderlecht-striker and current vtm-analyst Gilles De Bilde. Also in the studio: Proximus-analyst Wesley Sonck, a former topspits, and Niels Poissonnier, Club Brugge-watcher of The Latest News. Nicolas De Brabander Proximus Spors was the moderator.
Vadis Odjidja, he emerged with an early red card yesterday to Ghent antihero. “I don’t understand well that in these times with 30 cameras and a VAR – so do something,” said Niels Poissonnier. “There were already some akkefietjes with Wesley.” Sonck: “I think that emotion is also an important role in played. Torment the most experienced of the two let himself catch. That the public him uitfloot, played a certain role.”
Bilde: “Wesley is also someone who wants to apply in the duels, hey. But I think Bruges the competition is, anyway, easily had won – when you see how dominant they were. The sad part of the story is that Vadis a firm suspension will get.”
Surprise from the chef yesterday at Jan Breydel: Leko posted Clinton Mata in the driemansdefensie. Poissonnier: “They have a few days on trained. The logical choice was, of course, to Amrabat again. It is pretty what Leko does – a flankverdediger in a driemansdefensie convert and three to four days of intensive for training.”
“Whatever decision Leko only itself can take? That is, stop”
Also on the impending farewell of Leko left the Club Brugge-watcher his light: “Are contractsituatie is simple. The contract runs off, so… You may have statements, but 1 way to interpret. We still have some phones, and it is clear. He finds that he does not need to re-prove. What decision can Ivan Leko only on its own take? That is stop. But he doesn’t want it theme of create. He really wanted to stay, but he wants to make the final calls that Club after the play-offs wanted to implement is not to wait and see.”
