Trebel back in starting eleven?

OTHER Many new names should not be expected under Frank Vercauteren. But there is a chance that Albert Sambi Lokonga will get Adrien Trebel next to him in the midfield. The Frenchman has not been in the plans for a while, but has continued to train in a conscientious manner.


Last week RSC Anderlecht lost the friendly match against KV Mechelen with 1-4. It gave the Vercauteren confirmation of what he had already seen in the second half against Charleroi. When the ball is lost, the Purple & White struggles to keep putting pressure on the opponent.

Vincent Kompany wants to play dominant football with possession of the ball, Vercauteren will also follow that philosophy. Only he will tackle things more realistically, he wants to continue to put pressure on the opponent even in the case of loss of the ball. And Trebel comes in handy, the coach needs men to achieve that. There is a good chance that the Frenchman will be in the starting line-up against Sint-Truiden.
