Belgian Champions KRC Genk will want to forget their disastrous campaign in the Champions League soon.
Having garnered just a point after six round of football matches and conceding 20 goals while scoring a paltry 5 it makes grim looking for the Belgian Champions.
Their poor form in Europe's elite competition was highlighted on Tuesday with a 4-0 loss in Napoli in their last game.
Many Genk players hoped that the champion will be a springboard to much greater turns but it was only a false dawn .
Players for Genk on the night were poor but the only bright spot was Ghanaian winger Joseph Paintsil who gave a very good account of himself.
"Only Joseph Paintsil showed a positive note, with actions like we didn't see them this season with the Belgian champion, but that is not enough to make a sufficient impression as the Italian newspaper wrote his name wrongly. The Gazzetta dello Sport had it about 'Paintsic ".
"His performance already shows what people at Genk have known for a long time: that you have to give a newcomer time to adjust and cannot judge after six months or a year. It makes Genk hope that next season, if everyone has found their place and is fully established, has a better team again than this year. "
