Not three but two Dutch teams will play in Europe tonight. Feyenoord in the Europa League and AZ in the Conference League. In this AD Voetbalpodcast, Etienne Verhoeff and Mikos Gouka look ahead to those matches and a little bit to Super Sunday. In addition, attention to mascot gate.
The key question at Feyenoord is of course: Europe today or PSV Sunday. Which duel is more important. ,,Slot can choose to field his second or third left back in this Europa League game and then save his number one for PSV on Sunday. A trainer says that he always lives from match to match, but PSV will of course appear fresher at the start on Sunday. That will have an impact. But I think Slot first wants to play against Sturm Graz for an hour and then decides whether he will save players,” says Gouka, who thinks Pascal Jansen will make the same choice at AZ.
They also talk about the Feyenoord puzzle, the Conference League effect on results in the competition and Gouka will briefly return to statements by Ajax coach Alfred Schreuder. ,,Afterwards he came up with the excuse that Liverpool will bring in a striker of 75 million euros, Darwin, at a 1-1 score, but that also applies to Ajax in the Eredivisie. If they play against Excelsior, FC Emmen or Go Ahead Eagles, that trainer can also say that with Brobbey they bring a man of twenty million into the field in the event of a tie, for example.”
