It is rumbling at PSV. In addition to being blown in a sporty point of view in 2025, it is also restless outside the field. There is a lot of frustration around the Eindhoven team, which for the first time in 1.5 years on Sunday lost the lead to Ajax. A crisis must be sworn against Juventus, calculated where things were going wrong this season.
Peter Bosz had to admit on Monday evening that the chagrin of the moderate match against Willem II had not yet disappeared. PSV had a bad general for the important diptych with Juventus in the Champions League and the trainer also had to deal with a small fire that had to be extinguished.

Noa long had said on Saturday that he found the PSV audience too critical and felt too little supported. He also showed his dissatisfaction while cheering after his goal by keeping a finger in front of him. “I talked to him about that,” the coach admitted. “Noa is Noa and we should keep it that way. He is a nice and good person. I said on Saturday that it was not wise to respond that way. Everyone was frustrated and he expressed that way. I mainly want it Don’t make it too big, please … “
Yet when asked, he added a call: “We need Noa and the fans very desperately.”
“We have lost stability a bit.”
Because PSV is in a difficult phase. The people of Eindhoven started very changeable at 2025 and looking for the form of 1.5 years before. “We have lost stability a bit,” Bosz had to admit. But that always occurs once or twice in a season. Only last year not. Then I said it wasn’t normal. It is especially important to remain calm. “
PSV has to use the line up again against Juventus. On the spot where they lost 3-1 in September. “That is a long time ago for me. Of course we have to learn from that competition, but there are also a lot of things different. And I also hope the result.”
In Turin, Bosz can rely on Ivan Perisic for the first time in the Champions League. The Kroaat was not entitled to play in the group stage. “At that time, nobody was as nervous as he. He wanted so badly to play with us in the Champions League. We managed to reach the intermediate round and luckily we can use it tomorrow.”
