Questioned by our colleagues from Nieuwsblad and the newspapers of the IPM group, Youri Tielemans returned to the recent results of the Red Devils. The last captain of the selection defended the coach.
The Aston Villa player first discusses the impact of Tedesco’s arrival at the head of the Devils: “Another system, another personality. Tedesco tries to keep things simple. We only get together for short periods and he works with younger players. Martinez had more frames. It’s different management, but I wouldn’t say it’s better or worse. With Tedesco, we only played one tournament. The Euro was not at its best. We need more time to progress. »
And to return to the recent match against France, lost by Belgium. Tedesco, the problem? Youri Tielemans has clear ideas: “Of course not. He has nothing to do with it. Everyone saw that we played well against France, few chances conceded, many created. If I converted this penalty, the match would have been different. »

The former Anderlecht player then talks about the recent changes to the squad. The absence of Courtois, the departure of Eden Hazard… “At the World Cup in Russia, each position was doubled with players of the same level. Today, we have more young people who can still reach that level. It’s a slightly more difficult period, but that doesn’t mean we won’t get back to this level, or even higher,” he believes.
And to conclude about the expectations around the Devils: “Everyone has the 2018 World Cup in mind and compares us to that time. We must ignore this. We are a different generation, with other qualities. It is up to us, with the staff, to build an identity and obtain the results that we can achieve. »
