I was skeptical when I saw the same front 4 as inter. It was pretty clear that we probably needed some rotation as the Inter game would've taken quite a bit out of us.
HTF does Nico start over Yildiiz? Motta saving him for??? Nico plays 90 minutes against Inter and then couple days later 120. I would take Pirlo back over Motta.

Dominated by a pretty average PSV side.

We were in control at half time and for some bizarre reason in the second half decided to stretch a game that we didn't need to chase a goal.

Some of the choices of players from Motta were ridiculous.

Ajax, Porto, Villarreal, Lyon and now PSV, all kicked us out of Europe in early stages. Was there someone else in recent times? We got our ass kicked by so many I don't even remember anymore

Very little players that get a sufficient grade here. Di Gregorio and Thuram for me. The rest either don't or are debateable at best imo.

Nico & Koop were horrible. Motta takes the cake 'though.

We got like 200m "worth" of players in the summer, and we got spanked by freakin PSV, led by 38 y.o.Perisic.

We showed nothing. No will to play, no hunger, no tactics, just nothing.

This tops all the Porto's, Benfica's, Lyon's. I blame myself for watching this for the whole 2,5 hours.

We’ve become what we hate. We grew up with a side that was tough in every aspect.

We are now soft. Fragile mentally - heads drop every time there’s any pressure. We get bullied physically on the pitch against everyone. Hardly anyone can stay fit for successive games. And to cap it off we let in the softest of goals with the crown being that horrific 3rd goal.

Any half decent coach could see they kept switching it quickly and then overloading one side to then get a ball in the box. Yet we sat deep and fell for the same shit over and over.

We pissed all our centre backs out on loan and then come crunch time we resort to the shit we have to field at the back today.

We also weren’t outclassed by PSV, they strung together one strong 45 minutes out of the 4 in which they fashioned chances and kept us under the pump. We bent over backwards and took it because the players and the coach did not know what to do to stop it and were rattled.
