Career

At Germinal Beerschot, he used to be second choice after Brazilian goalie Luciano, who is now at FC Groningen. In 2006, Verbist made an unsuccessful move to Belgian second division team Tienen. Quite shortly after this move he was loaned to Eendracht Aalst playing in Belgian Promotion A, the fourth level of Belgian football. But even there, his performances were not left uncriticised.

In July 2007 however, Verbist received a 10-day trial at first division team Cercle Brugge and then signed a contract with the green and black side for 1 year. In August 2013, one week before closure of the transfer period, Verbist was told by the board from Cercle that he quickly needed to find another team, because Cercle loaned Joris Delle from OGC Nice for one year. He failed to do that, and was "relegated" to fourth goalkeeper, after Joris Delle, Jo Coppens and Miguel Van Damme.[1] on 25 January 2014 Verbist signed a 4 months contract with the Danish side Brøndby IF as 2nd keeper due to an injured Michael Falkesgaard.[2] On 28 June 2014, Verbist signed a two-year deal with Dutch Eerste Divisie side Roda JC Kerkrade.[3]

Coaching career

After retiring, Verbist was appointed goalkeeper coach at K Beerschot VA under newly appointed manager Marc Brys.[4] Verbist followed Brys to Sint-Truidense V.V. ahead of the 2018-19 season.[5] On 26 November 2019, Brys and his staff, including Verbist, was fired.[6]

gollark: Simple decision trees *are* responding to/analyzing the outside world (well, game world), and I think some of the not-really-AI algorithms do an imagination-like thing of simulating various possible futures and picking the action which produces a lot of the better ones.
gollark: <@199529131224989696> I was thinking about stuff recently, and you know when you said `allow for introspection, imagination and probably also analysis of the outside world` when I asked `What does consciousness actually do, though?`Maybe you would need some form of consciousness, whatever that is, for introspection, but you don't for "imagination" and "analysis of the outside world". You can do those with simple "AI" like we use for games.
