“And eSpeciate at the moments when you go inside after your warm-up to get ready,” Drommel says in an interview with nu.nl. “Instead of walking out of the catacombs and onto the field, you turn right, to the bench. And that every week.”
“On the way home, I often had an unsatisfied feeling. You are full -full in all the tactics and are at all the meetings through the week. But when Push comes to shove, you’re on the bench.”
In recent Years at PSV, the 28-year-old Drommel Felt “Forgotten.” “The Team often won, the experiences in the Champions League Were Great, and it was fun with the guys, but it felt like I was not part of anything. I was done with that after three years.”

I think a role as a reserve goalkeeper is more difficult than being a first goalkeeper. As a second goalkeeper Does, you doelkeeperderder, you doalkeeperderderderder, you doalkeeperderderderderder, you doalkeeperderder, Have the mental burden that you constantly have to be shap, while you still don’t play. “

But i simply never had a second chant as a second a second a second a second a second as a second as a second as a second chance to show it as a second chance to show it as a second chans as a second chans as a second chans as a second chance to show it as a second chance to show” “” “” “” “” “” “” “” “” “” “
