SPECIAL LOAN MENTION: Chelsea midfielder van Ginkel helps PSV to victory

Marco Van Ginkel scored yet another goal for PSV Eindhoven on Saturday.

The baby-faced midfielder joined the Eredivisie side on loan from Chelsea on transfer deadline day and has scored in three of his four league appearances since returning to Holland, for four goals in six outings in total.

ADO Den Haag held off Phillip Cocu's side for 72 minutes before van Ginkel opened the scoring with a cheeky back heel to divert home Jurgen Locadia's shot.

Luuk De Jong sealed the win 10 minutes later to keep PSV at the top of the Eredivisie, one point ahead of Ajax with nine games of the season remaining.

Watch the highlights below:

Van Ginkel has only made four appearances for Chelsea since joining the club from Vitesse Arnhem in 2013. Consequent loan spells at AC Milan and Stoke City haven't been poor but they haven't set the world on fire either.

The 23-year-old Dutchman will be hoping his form at PSV can help ignite his chances of returning to Stamford Bridge to play rather than be shipped out on loan or sold to another club.
