PSV On Course to End Six-year TItle Drought Under Peter Bosz

“Without the ball you can't win”- these were the words of the late Dutch football legend Johan Cruyff. Not only do they know how to keep the ball, but they also perfectly understand what to do with it, scoring 52 goals and conceding only 6. PSV are the only team in the Dutch top flight with a perfect record in the 15 Eredivisie games played so far, and they sit 10 points clear of defending champions Feyenoord, 12 above AZ Alkmaar and Twente, and 21 above Ajax, who have climbed from the relegation zone all the way up to fifth place.

New manager 59-year-old Peter Bosz appointed back in June until mid-2026 succeeded Ruud Van Nistelrooy who resigned with one match remaining in the 2022/2023 Eredivisie season, citing a lack of internal support after winning the 2023 Johan Cruyff shield and 2022-23 KNVB Cup with PSV finishing second on the Eredivisie table.

PSV kicked off their 2023/2024 Eredivisie campaign under Peter Bosz with a comfortable 2-0 home win against Utrecht followed by a 3-1 away win at the GelreDome home ground of 17th-placed Vitesse before going on to record three consecutive 4-0 wins against RKC Waalwijk, NEC and Almere City FC pointing to a side that cannot only be very ruthless in attack but can also defend well.
