264293 Feyenoord has officially finalised the technical staff. Earlier it was announced that Etiënne Reijnen and John de Wolf will assist the appointed Brian Priske. On the website of the Rotterdammers it is now also confirmed that Lukas Babalola Andersson and Björn Hamberg will be assistants. This has not yet been officially announced in a press release, but if we look at the technical staff on a page where the team of Feyenoord is displayed, we see that the Rotterdammers have added the names of Andersson and Hamberg themselves. Below is a view of the entire technical staff for the upcoming season: Brian Priske (Head Coach) Lukas Babalola (Assistant Coach) Björn Hamberg (Assistant coach) John de Wolf (Assistant Coach) Etiënne Reijnen (Analyst & Advisor) Jyri Nieminen (goalkeeper coach) Roderick van der Ham (Video Analyst) Joey Klene (Cameraman video analysis) Frank Boer (Team Manager)
Remarkable why Orkun Kökçü chose to play for Turkey: "Orkun Kökçü is currently active with Turkey at the European Championship in Germany. The midfielder, who left Feyenoord last year, could also have chosen the Netherlands as a country to wear the colours. Wilfred Genee comes to Vandaag Inside with a story about why this didn't happen. Genee: "His manager, Ali Dursun, said to me that he was probably just not good enough for the national team, that's why they chose Turkey. That's what he said to me once," he reveals. "Then I said: you don't know how good he's going to be, do you?".
264371 Defender Hendriks swaps Feyenoord for VfB Stuttgart. https://dagblad010.nl/Sport/verdediger-hendriks-verruilt-feyenoord-voor-vfb-stuttgart Defender Ramon Hendriks continues his football career at the German VfB Stuttgart. The 22-year-old Feyenoord player, who still had a contract at De Kuip until mid-2026, signs a multi-year commitment with the number two of the Bundesliga last season. Last season, he was loaned out to Vitesse. I don't get this. We're facing losing core defenders this summer and we let this talent hike off to the BuLi nr 2?
The foundation "Stichting Droom en Daad", which via a branch/subsidiary was sponsoring Feyenoord, has given Rotterdam 80 million €€ for the renovation of museum Boijmans Van Beuningen.
264757 Hancko was rated well again: And most likely being watched playing against epl attackers, the chance we keep him this window shrinks considerably.
Was Hancko the one who played the ball across the sideline rather than kicking it upfield? I can't remember who the player was that gave England the throw in that led to the goal.
264933 Good news that Timon Wellenreuther has extended his contract to mid 2027. This probably means Bijlow is leaving the club, as Timon has been saying he wanted to leave to be first choice goalie somewhere else.
265147 Well, Gimenez doesnot need to go to a Mexican beach, if he wants to ride the waves. He now can do it in the center of Rotterdam.
265170 https://www.vi.nl/nieuws/feyenoord-stunt-met-komst-costa-ricaans-toptalent-mitchell Seems we signed someone, who eliminated Brasil Vinicius in the Copa America match. After the already loaned Ondrej Linger and the quintet Anis Hadj Moussai, Chris Kévin-Nadje, Devin Haen, Gijs Smal and Julián Carranza, Mitchell will be the sixth summer acquisition for the selection of coach Brian Priske, who was presented on Wednesday.
Interview with the coach in his Antwerp time, which sheds light on how he thinks: https://lagabbiadiorrico.com/2022/02/25/exclusive-interview-with-brian-priske/
Brian Priske believes in the power of the training ground. After winning the second national title in a row with Sparta Prague, he speaks words that could have come straight from the mouth of Arne Slot. 'Our mentality has been the key to this success,' says the Dane, who is fluent in the Dutch language due to his periods in Belgium as a player and coach. 'The culture of the team and the way of working at our Strahov training complex (the 1908 of Sparta Prague, ed.) have been crucial. We know we have quality, but without this attitude we wouldn't have succeeded.' At Priske, everything starts with hard work. That is non-negotiable with him. "If we don't play according to our core values and don't work hard, we will lose points. Regardless of the opponent.' As a former defender, Priske values discipline, but at the same time, he is a progressive spirit. He has taken his first steps as a trainer at data club FC Midtjylland. Also at Sparta Prague he collaborates with his staff to collect the best statistics. Priske's way of playing is elaborated in tactical principles, which he tries to link to Key Performance Indicators. This is typical of his desire to analyse everything in detail, with modern tools. Another similarity with Slot: Priske is used to developing talented players and selling them on. At Midtjylland, the squad has been rejuvenated under his reign, resulting in lucrative transfers of Frank Onyeka, Jens Cajuste and Anders Dreyer. At Sparta Prague, Dávid Hancko, Adam Hlozek and Tomás Cvancara were sold for a lot of money. In that respect, Priske fits Feyenoord's profile seamlessly: he is a coach who can create value on the pitch. Priske is pragmatic in applying tactical formations. Although he explains in an interview in his Antwerp days (see post above) that he prefers a formation with four defenders, he has won the championship twice in the Czech Republic with three central defenders in a 3-4-3 system.
265565 From what I'm reading abroad about his performance in the Copa we have a major coup with this signing: https://www.ad.nl/nederlands-voetba...nal-van-costa-rica-dit-is-een-droom~af3d86b1/
Yes, they are praising him for his physical play and recognize that he will have to adapt to the European style of play where his aggressive style would achieve more bookings. Apparently Priske is going to try out a 3-4-3 system, which likely entails Beelen-Trauner-Mitchell across the backline, left to right. That is, however, if Hancko leaves. That would mean that the former LBs and RBs (Hartman, Lopez, Nieuwkoop, etc.) compete with the midfielders for the 4 across the middle. Or perhaps the midfield 4 are a diamond shape with an attacking mid, defensive mid, and two wingback mids.
266308 There's all of a sudden alot of noise in France about Geertruida heading to PSG. And now I'm reading in the English press Arsenal (a 32 million bid, higher than the PSG rumoured bid) and Liverpool are on the move to throw a spanner in the wheels.
