Across State Lines: Palmer-Brown’s and NAC’s Struggles Continue

It’s been a struggle for Erik Palmer-Brown in his first full season on loan from Manchester City as not only has he struggled early on to get on the field at NAC Breda (playing in just two of their first six league games) but NAC has also struggled as the club has just one win in their first six league games. Then this past week the club also bowed out of the KNVB Beker, the Dutch Cup, after losing 2-0 to RKC Waalwijk of the Dutch second division in the first round of the competition. This led to NAC supporters surrounding the bus after it returned to the club’s training facility after the loss. Things don’t get any better for NAC as this weekend they play first place PSV Eindhoven.

Here’s the rest of this week’s update.
