Critical Insights on Feyenoord’s Winter Break Strategy

omidbasir- Valentijn Driessen believes that changes are necessary for Feyenoord during the winter break. The journalist has expressed significant criticism regarding several players from the Rotterdam team, notably the highly debated Quinten Timber.

In the Kick-Off podcast by De Telegraaf, Driessen stated, “Van Persie will not be dismissed, but something needs to happen.” He pointed out that there were overly optimistic expectations regarding player returns, noting, “On Sunday, it was mentioned quite casually that Sem Steijn will be back, and that Smal and Nieuwkoop will soon be fit. However, Nieuwkoop has a history of injuries. As for Steijn, one must wonder how he will return. There needs to be an infusion of quality into the team.”
