The former Bayern Munich and AC Milan star stressed that every player should put in their 100 percent, if PSV are to become Dutch champions at the end of the 2012/13 season.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mark-van-Bommel-c24148 has confessed that PSV Eindhoven have always been in his heart since his move away from Philips Stadion in the summer of 2005.
The veteran midfielder, who represented the Boeren in 169 league matches during his first stint at PSV, joined http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 at the start of the 2005/06 season.
However, the 35-year-old was not happy during his debut season at Camp Nou, and made his move to Bundesliga giants, Bayern Munich, in the summer of 2006.
The Dutch international played over 100 matches while wearing Die Roten colours during his five-season stay at Allianz Arena, before joining AC Milan half-way through the 2010/11 season.
After his contract expired at San Siro last month, the highly-rated midfielder opted to return to PSV on a Bosman move.
“PSV has always been in my heart since leaving. I left here seven years ago with the promise to return and that is a promise I have kept. At the moment I still can add something to the team”, Van Bommel was quoted as saying to
Uefa.com.
The Dutch midfielder, who represented his national side in 79 matches before hanging up his boots after the end of Euro 2012, went on to admit that there is a lot of quality in the PSV squad.
“This is a young team with a lot of quality but to take that next step you have to realise you have to do it every match. That sounds simple, but it is not. It has to be a way of life; not only to become champions, but also to
become a top player”, Van Bommel concluded.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/PSV-c40281 have failed to earn a UEFA Champions League ticket in the past couple of seasons, finishing third on the league table consecutively.
However, the Eindhoven giants are keen to impress in the upcoming season, having already dished out a warning to all the Eredivisie title contenders with a 4-2 win against Ajax Amsterdam in the Johan Cruyff Shield at Amsterdam
Arena on August 5.
