WTF with Benfica - Granada link?

Futre is taking care of that

 

[Tiago_10]

Looks like Yebda its going to Granada too, less one.
Nuno Coelho in Beira Mar for loan and Urreta probably in Genoa also in loan this ones i didnt understand

Nuno Coelho wouldn't have enough playing time. Then again why did we buy him, right?

Urreta.. Well I really don't know why JJ doesn't like him.. He was loaned out what 3 seasons in a row now?

 

[Master Pi a Gi]

For Urreta its really stupid, maybe he will stay and Jara goes and with that gives more oportunities do Oliveira, Rodrigo and Urreta

Yebda its official he went to Granada

 

[Master Pi a Gi]

One of the most important matches of the season to us.
Looks like Jesus will use the 4-2-3-1, since he only called up Cardozo and Saviola

 

[Tiago_10]

Yeah, which also means Jara is possibly on his way out...

I'm only happy with it if it means Nélson Oliveira and Rodrigo getting more chances.

Benfica 3-1 Twente

Witsel
Luisão
Witsel


We played nice but still missed some chances. Didnt like Jesus subbing Nolito out and i think he didnt like it either, Jesus was a prick in this situation, Nolito could score and break Eusebio's record.

 

[Master Pi a Gi]

Great game by us, to bad the missed oportunities, but we played much better and i was hoping that JJ would keep this tactic because it works even for our league

I too would've preferred Aimar being subbed instead, he needs to play on our next league match..

It was a fantastic game, their goal was undeserved too, but whatever.

Artur keeps making extraordinary saves and Witsel continues to impress.. Although all team played well, except maybe Maxi Pereira he's not 100% yet..

 

[Master Pi a Gi]

For what i saw i think that Ruiz and John would be interesting players for us.

Lets see what culbs we will get in the CL.

 

[Coruja]

Ruiz is an old story and i would be pleased to have him since hes over and over again offering himself to us.

About John... man seriously he's like 18/19 years old and looks so mature. Certainly i would try an approach for him, and one thing is for certain John did 90% of the damage in our team, he seems pretty clever has a nice crossing and drible. We should watch him close indeed.

 

[Master Pi a Gi]

yeah surely they are interesting, Ruiz its very expensive but John i doubt its expensive, anyway the clubs we got in CL are almost all the ones i asked except Man Utd.
But we must fully pass this group, Jesus just needs to keep focused and dont joke around.

 

[Tiago_10]

Yeah we're considerably lucky in the draw, could be a lot worse. Not that I'm expecting to win the matches against United, but 2nd place in this group is the minimum.

 

[Tiago_10]

Btw because our sports press is so crap I too believed Nolito matched Eusébio's record in scoring in his first five matches as a Benfica player. But the fact is Eusébio scored in his first SIX matches.

Therefore, had he stayed in the field he couldn't break any record last match at least..

You can read it here.


Also I read Jorge Jesus didn't sub Aimar because he asked not to be subbed. Legend

Lol.
Anyway the press its saying that Benfica its thinking to extend the contract of Aimar, in my opinion we should already done this sooner

 

[Tiago_10]

I'm all for it.. Aimar is in excellent form, playing like he's 25 again and still have a few years of football in him.. IMO he should be our captain, not Luisão.

 

[Coruja]

 

[Tiago_10]

Ahahah

That looks taken from that fake interview by Bruno Nogueira. Which is quite sad because it's the reality


I read Mano Menezes is thinking about calling up Artur Moraes to Brazil's squad.

 

[Master Pi a Gi]

LOL funny stuff, the transfer market its closing a good and a bad thing for us.
The good one is that we wont lose a major player for what it looks like.
The bad one is that we wont be able to sell or loan the rest of the crap.

Still a few days left, lets see what happen

 

[Tiago_10]

David Simão and Fábio Faria loaned to Paços de Ferreira...

And Jardel will probably replace Garay (injured) when we have Miguel Vitor and Roderick (although will be loaned, another bad decision)..

I don't understand how can JJ not see Jardel is slow as **** especially when he has this inadequate self esteem. And again, we have better alternatives.

 

[Coruja]

**** this ****! David Simao loaned again? WTF?! He needs to be in the final of some youngster World Cup to be in the squad or something? Seriously, retarded management of our players.
