According to Het Laatste Nieuws, PSV's restverdediging was criticized for being "erbarmelijk" (pitiful) in their loss to Club Brugge. The media outlet questioned how PSV's trainer, Peter Bosz, allowed Carlos Forbs to have so much space, allowing him to score the winning goal. Het Laatste Nieuws also praised Yann Sommer and Nicolò Tresoldi for their excellent performances, while criticizing PSV's decision to give Forbs too much freedom.
Sporza also criticized PSV's restverdediging, describing it as a "knipperlichtduel" (a game of cat and mouse) in Eindhoven. The media outlet praised Sommer and Tresoldi, but criticized PSV's decision to give Forbs too much space, allowing him to score the winning goal.
Het Nieuwsblad also criticized PSV's restverdediging, stating that the team's players stormed forward in a "gretig, maar onbesuisd" (greedy but uncontrolled) manner, leaving Forbs alone to score the winning goal. The media outlet questioned how Bosz did not warn his players about Forbs' speed and skill.
The criticism of PSV's restverdediging is a major concern for the team, and it remains to be seen how they will respond to these criticisms in their next match against Heerenveen on 8 October.
