Brussels‘We are trying to Play-off 1 to do with Fred Rutten.’ Thus spake Michael Verschueren Monday after the 0 9 in Play-off 1 and the fifth place in the standings. The poor results are according to the general manager, although not due to the trainer, but Verschueren also showed no 100 percent trust. If he and chairman Marc Coucke Anderlecht compare with other Play-off 1 teams, they find that there is more in essence than what now comes.

Paternal Arnesen

“Look, if there are people who find that Fred is not the maximum out of it, it will be difficult,” says Zeljko Petrovic, currently assistant coach at Utrecht, and a good friend of Rutten. “But Anderlecht should Fred Rutten grateful. He came in december to the club in very difficult circumstances. That was not a gift. Hein Vanhaezebrouck had as a coach, nevertheless it also earned its stripes? He also had not a vessel more on that cast of actors, hey.’

Youri Mulder, who still have the RSCA coach worked at Twente, is of the same opinion. ‘Normal is Fred not a trainer who was hit in the middle of the season. But because he is Anderlecht a nice club found, he made an exception. The club had it even not easy to be a good T1 to find and Fred did it for Frank Arnesen, that he very much appreciates.’

‘Have you seen how Coucke the qualification for Play-offs 1 fourth? That means that the management realizes that the rake is’

Ex-assistant to Fred Rutten

The Danish sporting director is still his biggest support in Anderlecht. I was excited when the wild fans after Sunday’s defeat against royal Antwerp, the main entrance blocked. The cheering resounded in the press room, and there, Arnesen fatherly arm on his shoulder. Arnesen came equally to the constatatie that there is too little quality in the group and that European football pick up almost a mission impossible . ‘Fred should be rowing with the oars he has, ” Mulder. ‘Have you seen how Marc Coucke the qualification for Play-offs 1 fourth? That means that the management realizes that the rake is. Such a vreugdexplosie because they are in the top six to finish: that’s not normal at Anderlecht? How much more can you expect in Play-off 1? Fred surprised himself sometimes.’

That leaves the Dutchman, however, never appear to the outside world. In the public – not along the sidelines – he is rarely out of his role. “Trust me: the inside cooks Fred sometimes when it’s not running the way he wants it to be”, says Petrovic. “He hates to lose, but what’s the point of being like a clown to run screaming for your bank? That helps rarely. Also afterwards, that he would never players losing weight.”

‘Fred would find it easier to make ” Mulder continued. “He would be popular to the fans by more young people than only Yari Verschaeren. With many youngsters in the team, he has really nothing to lose, but Fred will talents never to the front if they are not ready for them. And certainly not to save himself. He opts for more experienced players, but the quality is that group just not in order.’

Like in 1963?

And in those circumstances, it must Anderlecht tonight so to Standard. Of the last twelve matches in Sclessin won purple-white there is only one. The last time that the four competitiematchen in a row lost, dates already from 1963. No one wants to think that with a new defeat will happen. “I hope Anderlecht a gentleman’s club remains”, says Petrovic. ‘How often has a trainersontslag in the short term, the desired shock effect? Rutten is a craftsman. Would another coach do better?’

The shadow of Kasper Hjulmand is hanging already for some time about the Astridpark. “But why would Anderlecht next season, just don’t go with Rutten?’, asks Mulder. “It will benefit from it, though. Fred can really build a team and Feyenoord, PSV and Twente, he has already proven that his teams are good football can bring. That is better than completely from scratch again.’

You might want to Rutten that not even themselves. He has also determined that Anderlecht in a club that is difficult to manage. “Yes, he was annoyed, however, that assistant (Zetterberg, ed.) who just expressed their opinion in the newspaper. And that without internal consultation, hey’, decision Petrovic. “Self, I don’t know what Fred will decide, but what I do know is that he was the Belgian league best will be of interest. In the Netherlands there is often little surprising. Just about every team plays 4-3-3 and the top clubs dominate the league. In Belgium, the football fysieker, experimented with tactics and everyone can everyone win. Whatever happens, Fred will never regret its passage in your country.’
