'Danny Buijs deserves a statue'

Theo Janssen praises Fortuna Sittard manager Danny Buijs for consistently keeping the club safe in the Eredivisie despite limited squad quality.

In his monthly column, former Arnhem player Theo Janssen argues that Danny Buijs deserves far more recognition for his work at Fortuna Sittard. Janssen highlights how Buijs has become the most consistent manager in the Eredivisie, repeatedly achieving safety and stability with a squad he describes as having only nine or ten reliable players and one or two with genuine quality. Year after year, Buijs manages to keep Fortuna competitive and secure their league status well before the season ends, often in positions nobody expected. Janssen notes that since Buijs arrived, the club has moved from a history of managerial turmoil to complete calm and stability. He concludes that Buijs deserves a statue at the club for his achievements.
