Waseige is a father figure very much in the mould of Guy Thys, who was coach of the Belgians in their heyday during the 1980s.
Unlike his predecessor George Leekens, he has the respect of players and media alike and in his first six games in charge, his transformed team netted 16 goals, including a victory over Italy and two draws with joint Euro hosts the Netherlands.

In autumn of 2002, the debut of Kassablanka, a recreation of the Romeo and Juliet story by the Flemish director Guy Lee Thys created a stir in Antwerp, where the movie was set.
The protagonists in this real-life theater are the xenophobic Flemish nationalist party Vlaams Blok, led by Filip DeWinter, and the often vehemently anti-Israeli Arab European League (AEL), led by Dyab Abou Jahjah, a Belgian citizen of Lebanese origin.
Caught in the middle are the center-left government of the recently re-elected Prime Minister Guy Verhofstadt and the old Jewish community of Antwerp, located in the center of the largest diamond industry in the world.
