“He’s going to play. He’s feeling good. So let’s play good, be Stevie.”

The same outlet Bergwijn whether fans had seen the best of him yet.

“No I don’t think, I don’t think so,” he .

“Last season was difficult for me, but this season started positively.

“Then I got the injury but I kept the confidence from the staff here and you will see the best of me soon.”
