Been believes that the long international break has not had a negative impact on Feyenoord, despite some concerns that the team's momentum might be disrupted. He points out that the break has actually been beneficial for some players, such as Zechiël, who made his debut and will likely be boosted by the return to action. Anis Hadj Moussa, who had been struggling with minor injuries during the break, is expected to be fit for the match against AZ, which will be a significant boost for Feyenoord.
Been is looking forward to the match, which will be a crucial test for Feyenoord's title aspirations. He is confident that the team can approach the match with a positive mindset and make the most of the opportunity to take the top spot.
