With the same coaches who brought the team into the major European competitions. With Vitsela, Blind, Lemar, ter Steeghen (who hardly played at all), and van de Bek (who missed almost the entire season due to injury). Many players cried yesterday.

It’s a phenomenal failure for the club, which was once writing history. The reliance on experienced players and famous names didn’t work out. The tactical system failed under the pressure of a tight schedule, and the stars couldn’t find the right chemistry to play effectively.

The focus will be on young players and a strong leadership structure, rather than on famous names.
