Anderlecht experienced a new blow last weekend with a third defeat in a timeless affiliate. This time, the club lost 2-0 in the derby against the Union, which did not give a great performance. The crisis therefore continues to worsen among the Mauves.
With the appointment of Besnik Hasi, we still hoped to be able to aim for the top 3, but this is now utopia. After zero point out of nine, the gap with the Union is already eleven points, and Anderlecht must now be content to hope to hang fourth place and win the Cup final.
This is also complicated, given the catastrophic level of play displayed in the last games. Even experienced players fail to wear the team. After the defeat against the Union, it was especially Thorgan Hazard who was violently criticized.
Hazard spared
The former Red Devil is indeed at the origin of the first goal because of a loss of ball, as had already happened to him two weeks earlier against the Bruges club. However, Alexandre Teklak believes that criticisms are not entirely justified.
“We can blame him for a bad match, but at least he shows personality,” said the analyst in the last hour.
“He moves, he asks the ball, he tries things … He wants to show more, because given his status, he feels obliged to do so. I’m waiting for much more to Leander Dendoncker and Kasper Dolberg, “continues Teklak.
According to him, they hide too much. “They have to show more temperament!” Show that you have played abroad, that you have desire, quality … You can say that it is not in their nature, but it should be, “he concludes.
