    Does not make the bench for the match against NEC. No idea what the time frame is, but it's not today.

    In lieu of an all touches video, watch this video where he prepares to fight the Sith. Also known as Ajax.

     
  2. If we go by the experience of Reiss Nelson it will be some weeks before he will make the bench.
    So, patience grasshopper, patience.

    I literally had the exact same thought during the intro video. Glad I'm not crazy.

    (Well, not for that reason, at least.)

    Aanwinst Cole Bassett denkt dat Feyenoord bij hem past: ‘Ik kende niemand die Feyenoord echt kende’

    Cole Bassett mag dan voor de lange termijn zijn aangetrokken, de 20-jarige middenvelder wil bij Feyenoord toch zo snel mogelijk stappen gaan zetten. De Amerikaan noemt zelf al snel de naam van de eerstkomende tegenstander. ,,Sparta’', zegt hij. ,,Ik hoop dat ik er dan al bij zit.‘’

    Acquisition Cole Bassett thinks Feyenoord suits him: 'I didn't know anyone who really knew Feyenoord'
    Cole Bassett may have been recruited for the long term, but the 20-year-old midfielder wants to take steps at Feyenoord as soon as possible. The American himself quickly mentions the name of the next opponent. "Sparta," he says.,,I hope I'm already there.'' Mikos Gouka 24-01-22, 14:44 Last update: 17:22

    He will be very good there.

  9. One must love the bravura/boldness confidence he expresses, but realistic it isnot.

    "The American himself quickly mentions the name of the next opponent. "Sparta," he says.,,I hope I'm already there.''

    The Feyenoord midfield is powerfull.
    Orkun Kökçü, just rated as "Eredivisie player of the month", is now Turkish international (many Dutch pissed he didnot choose to play for the Orange Squad) and on the watchlist of top clubs.
    Guus Til is an 18 million€€ player on loan until the summer and member of the Orange Squad and made it into several Teams of the Week.
    Fredrik Aursnes is doing very well and made it several times in Teams of the Week of several media.
    Jens Toornstra is the veteran and captain of the team.

    It will be weeks of absorbing play style, tactics, etc. before he will be ready for sub minutes.

  11. Feyenoord hasnot put Cole on the list with players for the Conference league after the winterstop.
    Now that's not a surprise to me, given he's fresh in and needs to adapt.
    Feyenoord can't risk to have a player on the list who might turn out not ready yet when needed.

    So, the limit, I think, is 25 players, including up to 3 new ones from the transfer window? Understandable but still disappointing for Bassett.
     
    Winoman repped this.
  13. The new signings on the list are the dual nat Dutch/American Sandler, a CD, a Swedish winger and a Dutch midfielder.
    The last one is very experienced with titles won with PSV, so a no brainer he's added to the list as in the midfield we needed an experienced extra player.

  14. I forgot to mention another signing, 18 yo Dermane Karim, who's a midfielder too and was skipped for the UEFA list too.

    Look at that familiar name on the bench vs. Sparta Rotterdam. With a 2-0 halftime lead - potential cameo for Bassett to get his feet wet?

    Let’s hope this is just to get him match fit and sharp after not playing for several months.
