Yet Another Crappy Season for PSV

What good are all those wins by large margins, against smaller teams, when you always lose in important matches?

In the league, PSV lost at home to Ajax exactly when they needed a win most. And now Ajax has just won the title.
In the cup, PSV made it all the way to the final of the Dutch cup, and then let in two crucial goals, in two minutes, which in the end cost them the trophy.
In the Europa League, they didn't even make it out of the group...

Yes, it's a fact that the Eindhoven team has underperformed this season. Their goal difference, the best out of all the teams, is all they have to show. But who really cares about goal difference when it doesn't help you win anything?
