Jakub Moder did not have the best start in Feyenoord Rotterdam. A player who went to the Dutch club in winter for 1.5 million euros from Brighton, in the first two performances he competed with Ajax (1: 2) in the league and PSV (0: 2) in the Netherlands.
Moder not only lost both of these meetings, but also played at most average. – I don't know what it was. I haven't seen anything that would give me food for thought: “Wow is a representative of his country,” said the Dutch coach and television expert Mario Been.
The situation unexpectedly changed over the past week. On Wednesday, Mode played a very good 90 minutes against Milan in the Champions League (1: 0), and on Saturday the Pole added a nice performance against NAC Breda in Eredivisie (0: 0).
Model finally praised
After these performances, Model finally got praise in the Dutch media. – The fact that the preparations for the match against NAC and the rematch with Milan were calmer, it is also his merit – said former feyenoord player and the national team of the Netherlands Johan Boskamp.
– He is always well positioned, he is always open to play. Thanks to it, we see things that we haven't seen for a long time. Mode, for example, always plays his colleagues on their better leg, which allows you to easily continue the offensive action – he added.
– After the match with Milan, everyone rightly talked about Igor Paixao. But you can't miss the modeer. He played a really good match. He showed that he not only positions himself well, but can also exchange quick applications for one contact. This is a good trailer – summed up Boskamp.
Mode will have a chance for another good performance on Tuesday, when Feyenoord will play away with Milan in the rematch of the Champions League play-off phase. Beginning of the meeting at 18:45. On Saturday, the team from Rotterdam will take Almere City in Eredivisie.
