Feyenoord’s Controversial Decisions Spark Fan Outrage

Feyenoord’s coach, Robin van Persie, is already stirring controversy ahead of the home match against Heracles Almelo. Many supporters are puzzled by the decision to bench star acquisition Sem Steijn, who was the top scorer in the Eredivisie last season, against the league’s bottom team.

Following the Europa League triumph over SK Sturm Graz, van Persie has had to make difficult choices once again. Newcomer Mats Deijl is set to start, while Steijn finds himself on the substitutes’ bench. It is worth noting that the attacking midfielder has not been particularly impressive in his recent performances, despite having scored seven league goals this season.
