His superb season saw the Belgian score 19 goals, provide 33 assists for his team mates in 69 appearances. His 91 key passes was not suppassed by anyone in the league too.

The Belgian who is fast earning a reputation as a goal threat outside the box after he scored three league goals outside the box has continued from where he left off last season.

He also converted his own spot kick in the subsequent penalty shootout. He also had his goalscoring boots on in the next game where he scored a goal and provided two assists in a 4-1 victory of Stuttgarter Kickers in the initial round of the DFB-Pokal.
