The defeat in players/” title=”SL16 Inside: "Our strike force allows us to be quickly on top of the top players"”>Ostend, without revolt, left its mark on Standard. Tuesday, Bruno Venanzi spoke to the players and the staff to explain to them that a series of measures were going to be taken until further notice to limit the comfort of the Rouches, whom he considers too little concerned. Thus, players and staff no longer have access to the pro block of the Academy, made up of the most modern changing rooms, a dining room and rooms to rest between training sessions. From now on, it’s basic cloakroom, lunch pack and return home between sessions. A greening (in the pro block facilities, this time) will also take place before each meeting until further notice.
This episode recalls another. In 2014, when Standard, 8th in the league, had just been taken out of the Belgian Cup by Lokeren and occupied the last place in their group in the Europa League, Bruno Venanzi and Axel Lawarée (sports adviser at the time ) had announced at a press conference that “Club Med is over”. A series of similar measures had already been taken.
