PSV talismans praise Saibari: “He’s only getting better from here.”
1 min readAlso PSV prodigies Willy and René van de Kerkhof watch closely the World Cup in North America. In addition to the Netherlands national team, they also follow the PSV players who come into action during the global tournament.
So are the Helmond brothers impressed by Ismael Saibari, who after the World Cup will move to FC Bayern Munich. Saibari was on target in the matches against Brazil (1-1) and Scotland (0-1), which means the Atlas Lions are virtually certain of a place in the next round.
Therefore Willy thinks it is better for the Netherlands to avoid Morocco in the next round. ''Morocco has a fantastic team, in every line. I think that in the knockout phase we can still play better against Brazil'', Willy says in the Willy and René PSV Podcast of Omroep Brabant.
In addition, Willy believes that Saibari will become a phenomenon at FC Bayern. ''That will be a phenomenon together with Harry Kane at Bayern Munich. He is that already, but he will only get even better,'' Willy said.
René also thinks there is a good chance that Sergiño Dest, active at the World Cup for Team USA, will leave PSV after the summer. ''I think he is also on the list of players departing, because he is playing brilliantly for the United States,'' René says about the full-back.

Eens...but if Pröpper isnt involved early, we lose control. Put him to receive and turn, and suddenly the whole press feels slower. 🔥
I think the quote about being more aggressive off the ball is the right direction. If Madueke and Bakayoko press together, PSV can win the ball earlier and avoid those slow buildup moments. 💯
We shouldnt pretend the defense is perfect. If they keep defending with a high line without a proper cover, attackers will just keep dragging them out. Im still not convinced ngl.
"PSV Inside" is brave for calling out our defensive timing. Ngl, the fullbacks are either too high or too late, and it makes the transitions look 10x more dangerous. We need clearer roles and communication, not just new names. 🤬
"PSV Inside"? Great, but who is covering the right half-space when the fullback jumps? Thats where the danger keeps coming from, every time. 👀
Tbh i love the idea of playing out from the back, but when the press comes in hot, Veerman needs to be calmer with his first touch. Otherwise it turns into easy turnovers.
tbh the midfield looked shaky in the article. If we start with the same double pivot, teams will press us on the first pass and we'll end up panicking. 👀
If PSV are serious about controlling games, we need that faster buildup through the half-spaces. Right now it feels like we're trying to force it down the middle too often, and then Schmidt or Tillman have to do miracles.
If PSV go with that same tempo again, Pepi has to start making those runs in behind. Last match he looked like the only one brave enough to take the space. 🔥
