Dirk Kuyt recently said in an interview that people in the Netherlands often look negatively and look for negative things. According to analysts in the Netherlands, there is actually something to be said about this. “The Belgians are completely different in this regard.”
in Today inside Former Lokeren player Rene van der Gipp defended Dirk Kuyt, Beerschot's coach. “Dirkie really has a point, I really mean that from the bottom of my heart. We're being sarcastic here and we're playing with the man.”
“These Belgians are completely different. They are warmer people. I would advise Dirk to continue working in Belgium. You can see that in Jan Boskamp, who has lived in Belgium all his life. Nice and relaxed, if you look there you feel it.”
Do you want to spend your entire career in Belgium?
Van der Gijp sees a bright future for the Dutch coach in our country: “I mean: he can still go to Bruges, he can still go to Anderlecht, he can still go to Genk, and then you can go abroad again and you.” “I come back like Jean Boskamp.”
“It's a wonderful country to live in. It's more pessimistic and more personal here, that's just how we are. We once invited Karl Hoybrechts to our table.”
“This was a big name in Belgium and he listened to it for an hour with increasing astonishment. He didn't understand it at all. Dirk Kuyt is annoyed by that, so he's better off in Belgium. They're really friendlier there.”
