“Given the past, this is quite historic. We have always had much trouble to win here - 't was all of seven years ago. The last weeks and months was Standard very strong on their own field. After the victory against Club Bruges, the feeling that there is something alive within the group. We have had a hard time after the defeat in Antwerp, but you can feel a certain security with the players. That we have today radiated.”
“We are in play-off 1. It was not so obvious. There is a lot spoken about the departure of Pozuelo - that also lived within the group. But what the guys on the field doing is very clever. It is also very clever what our trainer does to keep the rest. This is a surplus towards the following weeks. There is much euphoria and there is now enjoyed, but there are still five games to go. If this level persists, we will go there very close to his.”
“When everyone stood to enjoy at Club Brugge is with me, the stress really increased. Without arrogance: I think that we deserve it. But we have strong teams against. I find the Club an extremely strong team. But after the victory against them would be a disappointment if the title does not eventually pick up. And that makes for stress. That will be five days in duration. Today we still especially enjoy.”
