Is Atiba playing right now? Anywhere where I can get the lists of whose on the field?

Yes he is, Number 13

Isaksson, Manolev, Simons, Bouma, Pieters, Hutchinson, Toivonen, Engelaar, Lens, Koevermans en Dzsudzsák

PSV have sold Timmy Simons today to Nurnberg. He was getting old (still captain of the team) and was a defensive midfielder. 1 player less to compete with for Atiba.

Yes, and as he was just subbed out of the friendly with Ipswich they stopped the match for a few minutes to honour him....

Atiba played well. Really intelligent movement, hardly lost the ball and tracked back nicely on one occasion.

Final result 1-0. Not a lot of created chances in the second half. Ipswich improved a lot and PSV didn't really bother pushing on like they did first half.

And Jaime Peters did okay first half. Didn't see him second half. I think he was taken off at around 60th minute mark or something.

In the Europa Cup match today, the Dutch broadcast cut to a shot of Ibrahim Afellay in the stands, and said he was being held out to avoid being cup tied in case of a transfer to a bigger club. Is such a move imminent? If so, it could mean a much bigger role for Hutchinson for the rest of the year.

Rumour is now Fiorentina...

No, Afellay doesn't want to move to Fiorentina. HSV have had an offer accepted as well recently but Afellay turned them down as well.

There is some interest from Schalke 04 and Juventus (they are set to offload Diego to Wolfsburg).

Atiba did well in midfield. He seemed to mesh well with his teammates, mostly making the safe pass but usually maintaining possession. Got forward occasionally, one or two giveaways that didn't amount to anything. It's hard to get a good read when the opponent is so inferior. But I saw a bit of the Eredivisie match on the weekend and he was solid in that one as well. Even without Afellay healthy PSV do have a deep squad, so you can be certain that if Atiba was disappointing he wouldn't remain in the lineup.
