Since the start of the season, Mees Hilgers is no longer the undisputed basic player he was at FC Twente last season. Just like against NEC and Fortuna Sittard, the 21-year-old defender also started on the bench against Fiorentina.
“The trainer determines, I am not someone who then becomes annoying,” Hilgers tells Tubantia. “I’m not the hardest. But the rotation does have something to do with confidence. I’m a player who needs rhythm to get in shape.”
Last Thursday FC Twente lost 2-1 to Fiorentina. The Tukkers had a very difficult time, especially in the first half. Hilgers: “We only played long balls to those lampposts of Fiorentina in the back, and then you know that those balls come back just as quickly. We walked down the field with our heads.”
“We said at halftime that we had to adopt a different attitude. When we came onto the field for the second half, you immediately saw a completely different appearance with us. We started playing football and from that moment on you also noticed that they were not at all. are that good. I think we are better. I am also convinced that with our qualities we will make it in a full Grolsch Veste,” said Hilgers.
