Tempers go at KV Oostende
Laurent Meunier was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

A performance of 8.28 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Dries Meunier was on a different afternoon to everybody else
8.04. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Laurent Meunier answers KV Kortrijk immediately
Conceding is one thing; the response is what tells you about a dressing room. Laurent Meunier had KV Oostende level again within 4 minutes, and KV Kortrijk never got to play with a lead at all.

Jason Vertonghen has become a man the manager trusts
Nobody at KV Oostende will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.
