  • Club Spotlight: FC Twente
    Oct 14 2024

    It's the international break, and you know what that means: Club Spotlight time!

    This week, David walks us through Enschede's own FC Twente of the Eredivisie, including all its rich history, honors, and tactical iterations.

    Finally, we finish on Twente's promising new era (including recent points earned against Manchester United and Fenerbahce) , which places them in a fascinating context within Dutch football and even this season's Europa League.

    Cheers again Joseph Oosting!

    Meanwhile in the Conference, Chelsea continued their scintillating form, Fiorentina did Fiorentina stuff, Betis fell in Poland, and Cercle Brugge ran riot on St. Gallen.
