PSV director Toon Gerbrands furious with misbehaving fans after UEFA fine Football

sport">Toon Gerbrands, general manager of PSV, is angry with the perpetrators. “For us, the measure is more than full,” he says. “We no longer accept that people misbehave in the name of PSV, certainly not when we are guests. This misconduct is not supportive and I want it to end for good. We have now contacted the Austrian authorities and Sturm Graz and are doing everything we can to identify the perpetrators. We will pass the fine on them.”

sport">It has often gotten out of hand with supporters in recent months. Feyenoord received several fines from UEFA this season. On Sunday, after the game between NEC and Vitesse, things went completely wrong outside the stadium. The match between FC Utrecht and RKC Waalwijk was temporarily suspended due to supporters throwing lighters and cups with beer on the field.

sport">The KNVB, the Eredivisie CV, the Kitchen Champion Division, all clubs from professional football and the Supporters collective want the abuses to stop, they said in a joint statement on Monday. They are still discussing how exactly they want to achieve this.

PSV only misses suspended Sangaré against AS Monaco

sport">PSV coach Roger Schmidt has almost his entire selection at his disposal on Thursday in the home match against AS Monaco in the Europa League. The German has to do without Ibrahim Sangaré, who is sitting out a match suspension.

sport">The previous times that Sangaré was missing, Schmidt often chose to move defender Olivier Boscagli to midfield. Armando Obispo then replaces Boscagli in the center of the defense alongside André Ramalho. Another option for PSV is to start with Davy Pröpper.

sport">Schmidt did not want to reveal on Wednesday which choice he will make. “Transfer Boscagli is an option, but we have several options,” said the coach, who believes that PSV should not dwell too long on the absence of Sangaré. “We also played a good game without him against Real Sociedad, but he is a key player for us.”

sport">Boscagli himself doesn’t really care where he comes to play, he said. “I’m used to it now. At first, the switch from defense to midfield was a bit more difficult. Now that’s fine with me. I was born in Monaco myself. I think it’s great to be able to play against that club now.”

sport">Ryan Thomas was missing last weekend against PEC Zwolle (3-1) due to a minor knee injury. The New Zealander is on his way back. Schmidt: „He followed individual training. That went well. We’re keeping the option open that he’ll be on the couch tomorrow. Maybe he can play for a few more minutes. If not, then probably against Ajax on Sunday.”

sport">PSV and AS Monaco are leading in group B with 4 points from two matches. “Monaco, like us, almost qualified for the Champions League. It is an excellent team with strong individuals,” says Schmidt.
