Football pundit Valentijn Driessen is urging PSV Eindhoven coach Peter Bosz to stick with his winning starting eleven for their upcoming clash against Fortuna Sittard. After a dominant 6-2 Champions League victory against Napoli and a crucial 2-3 win against rivals Feyenoord, Driessen believes that changing the lineup, even with Ricardo Pepi available, would be a mistake.
"The puzzle pieces eventually have to fall into place, and they fall very unexpectedly," Driessen stated in an interview with De Telegraaf. He highlighted the emergence of Til and Saibari as key players, stepping up after Pepi's injury. "I already thought they were marching very well against Excelsior, offensively speaking. He built on that and that led to great victories."
Driessen emphasizes the importance of continuity. "You have to build on that now. Pepi will get his playing time anyway, because PSV is going to play so many games," Driessen predicts. "If this is best for PSV, the coach has to stick to it."
PSV fans will be eager to see if Bosz heeds Driessen's advice and fields the same team that secured those impressive victories. The match against Fortuna Sittard is a crucial one as PSV look to maintain their momentum and challenge for the Eredivisie title. The game kicks off Friday evening at home.
