The successor of Denso Kasius is already ready at FC Volendam. With Oskar Buur, the Volendam team brought in a new right back, but his debut will probably take a while. Trainer Wim Jonk calls him a doubtful case for tomorrow evening against Jong AZ. A match in which Jonk wants to see the Volendam before the winter break again.
“He makes a good impression, but still has a training delay,” says Jonk about the Danish newcomer who had his contract with the English Wolverhampton Wanderers terminated. He didn’t train today. “We have to build up slowly.”
In the Fishing Village he has to make Denso forget Kasius. Kasius signed with Bologna two weeks ago, to the great dismay of Volendam† “He is slightly different from Denso. He can also play centrally, but he is an emerging right-back who can play in multiple systems. We already targeted him last year. Then it just didn’t go through.”

At FC Volendam, after the winter break, things are not running as smoothly as before the interruption. Jonk was disappointed several times in front of the camera and denounced the way his team was raking in the points. “We have been less stable in recent weeks. Well in the results, but we have to get our game back to a high level.”
“It’s all unnecessary”, says Jonk, who explains the loss of a number of players for the less dominant game. “Certain certainties leave something to be desired. The left and right sides have been different over the past month. We are training hard to get that back in.”
“Normally we have the upper hand in positional play, but that was not the case this time”
“We did not play our game at the ball”, Jonk looks back on difficult matches against Roda JC (1-1), Jong FC Utrecht (2-0 win), MVV (0-1 win) and NAC Breda (0-0 ). “Normally we have the upper hand in positional play, but that was not the issue now. We have to make sure that possession is good, strike just moments and put pressure on the opponent. That sounds very logical, but it starts with that. “
FC Volendam will play at home against Jong AZ on Friday evening. The selection is good according to Jonk. Damon Mirani, who was ailing with aches and pains and corona, is fully fit again. “He looks fresher now.” Alex Plat is also back with the group. The match can be followed live on NH Radio.
