INJURIES There is also some cautious good news from the medical department at Anderlecht. Nathan De Cat's injury appears to be less serious than first thought. The young midfielder, who was recently named Promising Player of the Year, will escape a long absence and can continue his season as normal.
With four yellow cards to his name, he is on thin ice. Another booking will automatically result in a suspension, and the same applies to Enric Llansana and Adriano Bertaccini. At a time when Anderlecht is already plagued by injuries, additional absences due to suspensions are difficult to cope with.
Coach Besnik Hasi is therefore seeing his options become even more limited. The combination of physical problems and impending suspensions makes the coming weeks crucial. Discipline on the pitch will be at least as important as recovery off the pitch.
Anderlecht can only hope that De Cat's medical recovery continues and that the players keep their heads cool. In what is already a turbulent season, any additional absences could make all the difference.
