PSV Eindhoven 2013/2014- Cocu returns us to glory

PSV how are there new signings??

 

I like the way how PSV dealt with the money they received from the departure of Depay and Wijnaldum, since it is a lot of money in total. Instead of buying big names, they preferred to buy young players. I hope this squad will be good enough to perform well in CL.

 

Good first half, but that Bruma has the turning speed of a truck, which should be like a cross motor.
Out of gratitude I'm going to kiss Moreno's wife! Only because of gratitude..no other reason, certainly not because she is gorgeous

 

Yep, but United was very uncreative. De Jong should have done better also with that chance about a meter from the post. It would be a lot less nerving when one of those break away moments were better used.
Good for our coëfficient.

 

Or when Luuk missed his chance...

 

I think the ball just jumped up before he kicked it and since he already wanted to shoot it in the top left corner, it went over. Have yet to see the replay to be sure.

 

Nice header by Narsingh. Gotta give it to the guy.

Just wish he could score like that for Oranje!!!

 

Guardado was not at his best tonight, so the win is even better considering he's one of the players normally carrying the team. But he still is present with instructing the players around him. Some passes he gave and were just unprecise, would have given PSV almost a free run towards DeGea.

 

Not bad PSV. Not bad.

 

Pretty good PSV. Pretty damn good

 

Not a great performance on the pitch, but a very positive result for the coefficient.

Getting a draw in Moscow the next game is possible and would give even more confidence.

 

Great result. Shaw's injury was heartbreaking though, hate to see that happen to any player.

 

That's true. Guardado was terrible, especially the first half, which is surprising cause he is one of the best eredivisie player .
Hendrix had a good game, not a great game but he is a hard worker and he helped the defence. Only I wished his passing was a bit more special,
Propper is not a player that I really like. I can understand that some people like him cause he has a certain elegance with the ball, but he is just so slow and not sharp enough, there was a situation like 3 vs3 counter attack where he took ages and gave the wrong pass.
Schaars did good in his 20 minutes, I liked the moment when he kept the ball between 3 manchester players. He can definitly bring his experience to the CL adventure.

Considering I'm not convinced with Propper/Maher, I think PSV should play someone next to Luuk. Luuk can be a great pivot, I wished there was a quick player next to him to get the rebounds. Someone like Bergwijn or even Narsingh if he learns how not to be offside. I really believe Narsingh can be more useful in the center rather than on the wing where he looks so stereotypical and uninspired.

Or maybe Pereiro even if he doesn't look very quick.

Locadia can also be good sometimes.

 

That is a nice suggestion. Bergwijn+Luuk. Would like to see that.

 

De Jong will be missing the CL match up versus CSKA Moscow due to an ankle injury from last weekend. Looks like Locadia will get the start. Cocu has also called up Bergwijn and defender Jordy de Wijs.

 

I am very curious how Bergijn will do in this match. As he's a kid he can play without any pressure as he isnot supposed to be playing this kind of matches yet. So also hoping for a surprise combi of him with Locadia.

 

In the 1oth minute CSKA was pushing up to the PA of PSV and Bruma retreated into it leaving far too much space between him and two attackers, while pointing to them but no one closed in to those two, including Bruma. What was he thinking, trying to give the goalie support on the goal line?

Okay and now Bruma leaves the striker on his own to pick out the goal with a header. What a nut head.

 

Terrible collective performance, the midfield and defence marking is awful, Doumbia and Musa have avenues ahead them everytime they get the ball

 

Bruma after this match should now be a totall write off for the Orange team. For years on end I raged against his selection, starting with van Marwijk whom I accused of insulting Eredivisie players with the selection of Bruma and this evenings performance should be sealing his faith in the Nat. Time to change guards and select van Beek. The insults with Bruma's selectin should end now.
