INTERVIEWS Leander Dendoncker played on the midfield against Ghent, but it did not turn out to be a success. The Red Devil played a very average game. "But he was bothered by an injury, it was uncertain before the game if he could play", Vanhaezebrouck defended him afterwards.


He decided put Dendoncker in the team anyway. "I will not comment on his performance, but it was not easy for him," said Vanhaezebrouck. "But he has worked hard, that you could see."

Dendoncker himself also reacted. "Of course it can always be better The transition from the defense to the midfield is not easy, certainly not on conditional level: as a defender you have to run less than when you are midfielder, and then immediately against Ghent, which is physically strong and plays good football. Then you have to run a lot and that is different from what I'm used to. "
