CANNOT compare us to GOLDEN GENERATION | Belgium star Maxim De Cuyper ahead of World Cup

Belgian left-back Maxim De Cuyper says this current crop of players cannot be compared to the golden generation and they need time to build together, ahead of the World Cup. TIMESTAMPS 0:00 INTRO 0:10 very excited it’s the highest stage in football. I’m thinking about it every day 0:25 I wouldn’t say we have a very big chance of winning it. We have to be realistic. But we aren’t going there just to participate 1:04 we cannot compare this team to the golden generation. The golden generation needed a few years together to get to a certain level 1:15 we are a new team with young players and need time together 1:37 of course we think we can win it 2:05 heat? I think the places we will be will be ok. And it will be hot for both teams 2:52 we only have short camps usually so can’t do much tactical stuff 3:32 we will spend days off seeing family and not thinking about games. That’s really important. We will also watch other games together 4:07 the first World Cup I watched was 2010. The Netherlands did really well 4:24 I remember Germany in 2014 when they smashed Brazil 4:35 I remember Belgium in 2018 when we reached the semis against Brazil. Maybe the biggest game in our history 5:05 it’s a different time to 2018. Everybody wants us to do well but it’s difficult to say what the fans expect 5:43 playing with Doku makes my life easier! I play better when he is playing in front of me 6:05 I think Doku is one of the best wingers in the world 6:37 Charles de ketelaera can be one of the deciders in the World Cup 7:00 lukaku is such a big personality. You have to be on your toes with him on the pitch but off the pitch he is like a father 7:42 we have a really good mix between youth and experienced players who have won. I think we can do really well @HaytersTV – Football Up Close.
