Rutten: "We start from our own strength"

INTERVIEWS Fred Rutten is having his first Clasico on Sunday. The Dutchman does not fear. "I often participated in this kind of game, with a lot of atmosphere, two big clubs: these are the nicest games out there."
 


From its last five games, Standard gained thirteen points. The people from Liège are therefore well on their way. Can Rutten be satisfied with a draw? "You can only say that after the match, depending on how the game progresses", according to the coach. "It is going to be an interesting duel, with a lot of struggle. That Standard saw Luyindama leave on Thursday, will not change our playing style, I would like to start from our own strengths, and of course you will analyze the strength and weaknesses of the opponent, but first Anderlecht. "

The games between Anderlecht and Standard always provide tension. This week the whole thing got heated up by a statement from Thomas Didillon. "I often participated in these kind of games, which are the most beautiful races, as a coach and as a player. Lots of atmosphere, two big clubs: that can only be motivating. The discussion about Didillon is not completely taken care of, but it can happen that things are said. "
