They know Olivier Deschacht well in Gent, since the Anderlecht-player lives there, and has been spotted in the local bars. The match against Gent tonight will thus bring an extra dimension for him.


Deschacht will play as a central defender, since Jelle Van Damme came out of injury, and is playing well on the leftback. "He plays good matches there, so I don't see a reason to replace him" so says Deschacht. "I'm happy to play, that it is as a central defender is an adjusment, but I have played there before".

"We are stilll ashamed for the result against BATE Borisov, and that feeling will remain for the rest of the season. It's not because we won last week, that we have to put up a big mouth now. We have to win the title this year, to wash away our shame. And yes, Van Holsbeeck's speach after the match against Standard has changed a few things. We always have to be proud to wear the Anderlecht-jersey, and that was something that we didn't show in that match. That was Anderlecht unworthy."
