After the match against AA Gent, Nicky Hayen reacted irritated to questions about his goalkeepers. Nordin Jackers had just gone wrong. In the past few days, Mignolet and Jackers still see their Beurtrol extended for at least a month. The next six matches will be neatly divided by two. “The same questions keep coming back,” Hayen stabbed a minute of discourse with a smile. “We have thought about that system for a long time. People will always have questions about it. But it has never been scientifically proven that a rotation works or not.”
“We also do this for Mignolet”
Hayen clearly wanted to make a point and was prepared to come to his press chat. “Under Deila, Mignolet played everything, but he got injured. After that, Jackers fell out after Fiorentina. Mignolet did not play for nine weeks, but I did play excellent against Antwerp. I notice that there are now a lot of questions about competition rhythm. But we also train and work very intensely here. Our goal before our keepers? Our goalkeepers to get involved and to get them as sharp as possible, but we also opted for this system to keep Mignolet fit and at its best level. ”
“A plan with only losers”: goalkeeper rotation at Club Brugge also provides resentment internally
Turn the system over after the mistake of Jackers on Ghent? No hair who thought of his head on it. “That would just be very short -sighted. I thought that question was very bland too. If that match had been closed ten seconds earlier, you might have found our rotation system perfect. Then we only lost once during the summer and we won everything for the rest. But such things happen just like that. I would have preferred it differently? Of course. But if you are going to be difficult for each other. way of speaking – we have to intervene. “
“Enter the hen”
Balance between performance and rest: that’s what it’s all about in the coming weeks. Because Club plays almost every three days, including some important games in the Champions League. Hayen agreed that the board also has his say in the goalkeeper issue. “But interference, as was insinued, is not the right word. We simply discuss everything with them,” said Hayen. “There was another conversation with our keepers. They were shocked less than during the preparation that we are going through that system. We are just very proud of how they both played their role, because they performed at a high level. They train collegially, sharp and deal with each other in an excellent way.”
Jackers will take on La Louvière, on Thursday it will be Mignolet. Seys and Vermant are not there on Saturday. The latter must also give a lump sum for the match against Monaco. “Vermant is on schedule, but that will take a while,” said Hayen. “For Seys we look at it day a day. He is relapse in an old injury, so we have to be extremely careful with that. In the meantime, I also had a conversation with Ordonez. After his transfer bumbles he is again in good shape and has turned the button around. His full focus is back at Club. So we actually have a very good transfer.”
