November 15th Recently, Trossard's former coach Peter Metz accepted an interview with "Het Belang van Limburg". He was surprised by the players' current performance.

This season, Trossard's statistics are very eye-catching. In 14 appearances in all competitions, he has scored 4 goals and contributed 4 assists, including a wonderful goal against Sunderland in the away game before the international break. His two goals in the Premier League directly earned the team valuable 4 points, including the second-half winning goal against Fulham on October 18.

Peter Metz was Trossard's early coach at Genk. He expressed surprise at the player's transformation. He recalled a young man who did not yet have leadership qualities at the time: "At that time, I did not immediately see that Trossard could become a real captain, because he was mainly focused on his own game, at least when I trained him. He has not yet become a regular starter, and is often unhappy in training. Maybe from He has changed since then, because his performance at Arsenal is very good. "

"Indeed, Trossard is a person with a strong personality. In this regard, he is a candidate for the captain of the Belgium national team, especially considering those who are absent. He believes in himself and can pass this belief to the entire team. "

If Trossard can become the captain of the Belgian national team, it will be a huge change. With De Bruyne out injured and regular captain Tielemans unavailable, Rudi Garcia may hand over the national team captaincy to Trossard.
