For the first time in 2025, the “Dans le Vestiaire” team met this Monday to debrief the 21st day of the Belgian championship. On the program: the defeat of Anderlecht in the Topper, the breakdown of Charleroi supporters and the Standard transfer window.
Anderlecht mastered in the Topper
The Mauves suffered a third consecutive defeat in the league this Sunday against Club Bruges (after Genk and Dender before the break). “They did not exist against two candidates for the title. David Hubert’s mistakes are starting to repeat themselves, I think“, underlines Kevin Sauvage while Marc Delire notes the difference in level between the two teams. “We saw a Champions League team against a Europa League team“, analyzes our journalist.
“This is a global lesson given by Bruges, and this is where we see the lead that Bruges has taken“, sums up Kevin Sauvage perfectly.
The breakdown of Charleroi supporters
In the match between Charleroi and Union, the setting off of smoke bombs by Carole supporters while their team was leading caused a lot of talk. This caused the match to be interrupted and Charleroi finally lost, 1-2, conceding two goals in 5 minutes. “Having a match stopped is unacceptable“, proclaims Silvio Proto before continuing. “The supporters are there to support, not to annoy“.
“They are wrong all along, because they are not responsible for the consequences, but they are responsible for the cause. It’s the cause that causes everything“, also adds Marc Delire.
The Standard market
If Standard started the year well with a victory by the narrowest margin against Kortrijk at the opening of the 21st day of the championship, it was above all its transfer window which animated the discussions in the Locker Room this Monday. The Hungarian international, Szalai, comes to strengthen the Rouches defense (on loan, without purchase option). Earlier, Andréas Houtondji and Ibrahim Karamoko had already strengthened the squad. “Hats off to the sports management, because without a ball…“, greets Marc Delire.
“The incoming transfer window is over, except departure“, also adds Kevin Sauvage before the theme of the discussion switches to the departure of Arnaud Bodart, in a “bad timing“, according to Silvio Proto. “There are shared wrongs“, tempers Kevin Sauvage.
