Feyenoord trainer Dick Advocaat would rather not have played against FC Twente afterwards. Last Sunday, the team from Rotterdam could not beat the team from Enschede in De Kuip; it became 0-0.
“We preferred not to play against Sparta and rather not against FC Twente. We will play against that again in three weeks, so what’s the point? Maybe we got a bit more physical content, but otherwise it was nothing”, said Advocaat opposite RTV Rijnmond.
Rob Jakobs, former trainer and player of Feyenoord, thinks the same about it. “In the preparation you just start with smaller opponents, you go to training camp and you come later in your formation to play with which you want to play in the competition. This is just crazy for words.”
Jakobs continues: “As a club you have nothing to say at all because it is about money. It is of course that FOX Sports wants those matches to be broadcast on TV. But if you know that you will have the same opponent in three weeks, that does not work. . “
