We Didn't Think Anyone Could Love Mark Van Bommel This Much

Master of football's dark arts Mark Van Bommel is still very much loved by the PSV Eindhoven fans.

Van Bommel is considering retirement at the end of this season and the PSV fans made this impassioned plea for him to stay on for another year during and after last saturday's 5-2 win over Groningen at the Phillips Stadion, including a large 'Mark Must Stay' banner.
