The two victories acquired in Sclessin against Club Bruges and against Anderlecht were the trees which (a little) hid the forest, even if the two Anderlecht goals during the Clasico had already really put the flea in the ear. But the too low position of Djenepo – who obtained a penalty for his… only incursion into the Ghent rectangle – is one of the main concerns of current Standard.
This is probably one of the first elements that must be highlighted during the talks of the coaches who face the Rouches: “Go through the Liège defensive left flank, because Djenepo does not defend”.
At Standard, we must secure the left
This Sunday’s meeting was a new illustration of this, with the very complicated defensive performance of the Malian, totally dominated by Samoise, and who did not even attempt to make the slightest defensive gesture on certain actions, leaving poor Nathan Ngoy (on his bad foot…) left to his own devices.
Whether it involves a change of player (Canak on the left?) or a change of system (return to a four-man defense?), the solution will have to be quickly found by Carl Hoefkens to prevent Standard from demonstrating its feverishness on this left side.
In this sense, Wednesday’s meeting against Harelbeke is perhaps timely because it will allow the usual substitutes to receive playing time. And why not for a player to offer the necessary guarantees to secure a flank which has air currents.
Back at Standard, Moussa Djenepo is on a commando operation: “I have confidence in my soldiers to achieve good results”
