Roger Schmidt is disappointed with Yvon Mvogo’s expensive mistake, which was fatal to PSV in the top match against AZ. The Alkmaarders left Eindhoven with a 1-2 win after the Swiss went painfully under a long ball. Mvogo just got the confidence over Joël Drommel against AZ.
Before the match, Schmidt added ESPN already figured out why he chose Mvogo below the bar. ,,Joël has had ups and downs this season. He has not been in top form in recent weeks and we expect more from our players. I kept faith in him, but he wasn’t great in the last games either. That’s why Yvon deserved a chance now.”
,,It’s time for him now”, said Schmidt. ,,I’ve had enough patience with Joel. It is not possible to have any more confidence in him, he has to perform at some point.” The keeper who came over from FC Twente, however, left that behind. ,,I thought he was unreliable for the level we are aiming for.”
Disappointed
Even after the game, Schmidt still supported his choice. ,,I am very disappointed, but unfortunately football is like that sometimes. It’s very bad for him. He deserved to play based on the training.” Even after the match, Schmidt still supported his choice, despite Mvogo’s huge blunder. Was the keeper ready after months without matches? ,,It is part of football to always ready to be. If he isn’t, I could never have switched. This was very unfortunate.”
