Gutierrez confident he's adapting to pace of European football

It hasn't been an easy start to life in the Netherlands for Erick Gutierrez.

After a move late in the summer transfer window from Pachuca to PSV, the midfielder has looked to lock down a place as a regular in Mark van Bommel's starting XI.
