===Developing talent (1989–1999)=== [[File:Romario (PSV).jpg|thumb|Romário during a PSV training session in 1989]] After the European Cup win, PSV outsmarted many clubs by signing [[Romário]]. After a first season with 19 league goals, his hat-trick in the November 1989 match against [[FC Steaua București|Steaua București]] (5–1) – including a memorable solo effort – was his big breakthrough.<ref name="romario">{{cite web |title=Romário de Souza Faria |url=http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51&multitext_id=179 |publisher=PSV Zuipsite |access-date=24 June 2013 |language=nl |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070425225525/http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51 |archive-date=25 April 2007 |url-status=dead }}</ref> In 1989, after Koeman left, PSV ended second in the league, but won the KNVB Cup after [[1989–90 KNVB Cup|defeating Vitesse (1–0)]].<ref name="koeman2">{{cite web |title=Ronald Koeman |url=http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51&multitext_id=176 |publisher=PSV Zuipsite |access-date=24 June 2013 |language=nl |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070425225525/http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51 |archive-date=25 April 2007 |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref name="1990season">{{cite web |title=Historie: seizoen 1989/1990 |url=http://psv.netwerk.to/historie/seizoen.php?seizoen=1990 |publisher=psv.netwerk.to |access-date=24 June 2013 |archive-date=6 February 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130206064841/http://psv.netwerk.to/historie/seizoen.php?seizoen=1990 |url-status=live }}</ref> Hiddink left the team in 1990, to be replaced by [[Bobby Robson]]. In his two seasons at the club, PSV won two league titles; the first one on goal difference (with Ajax) and the second one in the penultimate match against Groningen.<ref name="1991season">{{cite web |title=Historie: seizoen 1990/1991 |url=http://psv.netwerk.to/historie/seizoen.php?seizoen=1991 |publisher=psv.netwerk.to |access-date=24 June 2013 |language=nl |archive-date=6 February 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130206064834/http://psv.netwerk.to/historie/seizoen.php?seizoen=1991 |url-status=live }}</ref> Meanwhile, Romário – league top scorer in 1989, 1990 and 1991 – was admired by fans, but sometimes also renounced by the squad for being unprofessional and selfish. Robson had frequent clashes with Romário, but the striker never changed his ways. These events, in addition to the lack of European success, meant that Robson was let go in 1992.<ref>{{cite book |last=Robson |title=Farewell but Not Goodbye |year=2005 |pages=[https://archive.org/details/farewellbutnotgo0000robs/page/148 148–150] |publisher=Hodder & Stoughton |isbn=0-340-84064-1 |url=https://archive.org/details/farewellbutnotgo0000robs/page/148 }}</ref> While Gerets retired, [[Hans Westerhof]] took over as coach, but only won the Super Cup in his single season at the helm.<ref name="zwiers"/><ref name="gerets">{{cite web |title=Eric Gerets |url=http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51&multitext_id=175 |publisher=PSV Zuipsite |access-date=24 June 2013 |language=nl |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130624232727/http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51&multitext_id=175 |archive-date=24 June 2013 }}</ref> In 1993, Romário was transferred to Barcelona.<ref name="romario"/> Westerhof was replaced by [[Aad de Mos]], who led the team to the third place.<ref name="zwiers"/> Early in the [[1994–95 Eredivisie|1994–95 season]], De Mos was fired and replaced by [[Dick Advocaat]] (after [[Kees Rijvers]] temporarily took over).<ref name="zwiers"/> PSV saw Van Breukelen retiring and signed [[Luc Nilis]] in 1994, who formed a powerful duo with another signing, the 17-year-old [[Ronaldo (Brazilian footballer)|Ronaldo]]. The Brazilian striker scored 30 goals in his debut season, while Nilis was named [[Dutch Footballer of the Year]] in an otherwise trophy-less year. After an injury-filled 1995–96 season where he still managed 12 goals, Ronaldo left for Barcelona.<ref name="ronaldo">{{cite web |title=Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima |url=http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51&multitext_id=184 |publisher=PSV Zuipsite |access-date=24 June 2013 |language=nl |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070425225525/http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51 |archive-date=25 April 2007 |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref name="nilis">{{cite web |title=Luc Nilis |url=http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51&multitext_id=183 |publisher=PSV Zuipsite |access-date=24 June 2013 |language=nl |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070425225525/http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51 |archive-date=25 April 2007 |url-status=dead }}</ref> That season, PSV won the cup after a 5–2 win against [[Sparta Rotterdam]].<ref name="cocu">{{cite web |title=Phillip Cocu |url=http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51&multitext_id=187 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130624232750/http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51&multitext_id=187 |url-status=dead |archive-date=24 June 2013 |publisher=PSV Zuipsite |access-date=24 June 2013 |language=nl }}</ref> In the 1996–97 season, when [[Harry van Raaij]] became chairman, Advocaat had created a team with players like [[Phillip Cocu]], [[Jaap Stam]], [[Boudewijn Zenden]] and [[Wim Jonk]]. It led to the Eredivisie title, with Nilis becoming league top goalscorer (21 goals). In the 1997–98 season, the team came in second behind Ajax in both league and cup. It resulted in Cocu, Stam, Zenden, Jonk and Advocaat leaving PSV, forcing the club to build a new squad.<ref name="nilis"/><ref name="1998season">{{cite web |title=Historie: seizoen 1997/1998 |url=http://psv.netwerk.to/historie/seizoen.php?seizoen=1998 |publisher=psv.netwerk.to |access-date=24 June 2013 |language=nl |archive-date=6 February 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130206064659/http://psv.netwerk.to/historie/seizoen.php?seizoen=1998 |url-status=live }}</ref> Robson temporarily returned in 1998 for one year so that desired coach Eric Gerets could get his coaching badges. Again, Nilis showed to be highly compatible with a poacher-type striker; new signing [[Ruud van Nistelrooy]] scored 31 times in his first season. In the season's last round, PSV beat [[FC Utrecht|Utrecht]] 3–2 with a last-minute goal by [[Arnold Bruggink]] – just enough for Champions League qualification.<ref name=robson /><ref name="vannistelrooy">{{cite web |title=Ruud van Nistelrooy |url=http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51&multitext_id=189 |publisher=PSV Zuipsite |access-date=24 June 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070425225525/http://www.psvzuipsite.nl/index.php?menu_id=51 |archive-date=25 April 2007 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
