How did Fortuna Sittard get on Nicky?

[Nicky91]

How did Fortuna Sittard get on Nicky?

our first friendly match was a 9-1 win, even though against amateurs still a good start again (with a long time without playing any matches)

PSV have resumed the training as of today under new coach Roger Schmidt

basically he's very impressed with the club, does see potential etc, it looks they are not gonna buy many new players, more investing into youth


the friendly matches are without audiences yes, same goes for training sessions also without public (training as of now still just warm ups, not match practice yet but that will come onto this week too)


new season will be with 1/3 of audience in stadium, so the one match that half of fans, other match other half, another match last bit of fans, and so on

So a strong start for Fortunezen then.:dance:

And PSV probably doesn't have to worry about players tbh, they'll more than likely challenge Ajax for the title again this season I reckon.

And the audience thing makes sense.

Director of Football for KNVB Eric Gudde reveals that due to the coronacrisis, all professional clubs miss out on 200 million euro

earlier an estimation of damage was thought to be 330 million euro


because of parliament support and loyalty of sponsors the loss of income is lower than expected

January will be an important time, we hope to get limited audiences back, if we must play longer without audiences the loss of income will become much more serious and too high and some clubs might become bankrupt

Giakoumakis is proving to be too good for a small team such as VVV

do recommend Giakoumakis going to a team like AZ, Utrecht, Twente for just to gain more experience before moving to bigger competitions

[Nicky91]
