You wonder too, right? How is it possible that KV Mechelen has to fight against relegation at the bottom in sixteenth place? If you look at the team and the way they play at times, this is still difficult to understand. With 24 goals scored, KV Mechelen is certainly not the worst in its class, but the number of goals is not in proportion to the number of chances they enforce. KVM has a hard time scoring and should have made a lot more given the number of opportunities. That becomes even more painful when you look at the efficiency at the back. KV is particularly vulnerable on flank crosses. It has already conceded 31 goals.



It can happen once, twice, maybe even three times, but the problem returns weekly. KV Mechelen is based on what they can do well: playing football. But they haven't addressed any of the problems in the meantime. For that, trainer Wouter Vrancken may also be looked at. Those stupid red cards, the risks when you don't have to ... It has to get out. And in fact, they should have already learned to handle a ten against eleven situation better. But they are guaranteed to fail with a numerical minority. However, KV has the mental strength. They already took a point five times after falling behind.



There was little money this summer to get a lot of reinforcements. A competitor for the gradually aging De Camargo would have been welcome, because Togui is never going to be that efficient killer. Sandy Walsh and Kerem Mrabti are the only ones who really hit the mark. Defour is still prone to injury and Gaëtan Coucke also has a few mistakes on his record. Corona has also made good use of the not-too-wide selection. For example, a Joachim Van Damme is indispensable for this KV. But yes, that foot shooting can stop now, because they are already in trouble and the month of December is still a long time.
 

 
 
 
 
 

  
Club Brugge booked a record turnover of no less than 137 million euros in the past year. The blue-black piggy bank thus approaches fifteen million euros. And yet we shouldn't expect crazy things on the transfer market. Club Brugge is sitting on a mountain of money. Bart Verhaeghe also sees the money coming in this year. And then we do not take into account any victory that will follow in the Europa League. However, blue-black remained remarkably quiet on the transfer market last summer. We should also expect little or no reinforcement in January. And that is a conscious choice of the boardroom. Vincent Mannaert will only tap into the market when a leading player leaves.



The top match between Antwerp and Club Brugge did not live up to expectations. Antwerp shot itself too much in the foot for that in the opening quarter. Club Brugge was immediately satisfied and played the match comfortably and very mature. Club started with four in the back for the occasion. The three Lang, De Ketelaere and Diatta caused the Antwerp defense the necessary problems. "Noa is a very good player who understands the game very well. He walks smart, has good action. He is a serious reinforcement. "Says Hans Vanaken.



Charles De Ketelaere has come completely loose in the attack at Club Brugge and that has of course also made the foreign scouts enthusiastic. According to Italian sources, AC Milan's interest in De Ketelaere is getting bigger and more concrete. Whether that will also quickly lead to a transfer? That is another matter. With blue-black, they don't want to leave their growth brilliant for an apple and an egg anyway. CDK is still under contract to Jan Breydel until June 2023, a winter transfer is in any case excluded with a view to the Europa League after the New Year.
