We should get those 3 points or definatelylower our ambitions :stuckup:
Got no time for further description hence I'm still busy with english literature for my exams :googly: Here's my line-up-wishlist:

GK: Quim

RB: Nelson
DC: Luisão
DC: Ricardo Rocha
LB: Léo

DM: Petit

RW: Manduca
MC: Manuel Fernandes
LW: Simão

FC: Mantorras
SC: Nuno Gomes

Another player I'd like to see, probably in the place of Manduca or Manu Fernandes is Karagounis.

yes, i've just noticed that....but marco ferreira was called lol

ricardo wont be able to play, because he is suspended for one game, so we will have andersson pairing up with luisão, should be good too:)


other than that i would like to see leo on the left, nelson on the right (simple and easy lol), petit and manuel in the mid, karagounis ahead of them, and nuno upfront.

simao on the left, manduca on the right. eventually , testing robert on simao´s place further into the game.

also depending how the game goes, might be interesting testing karagounis in manuel's position, with geovanni and nuno upfront.

ridiculous that mantorras wasnt called

becoz we only can play 11 men at the time:D

i think manduca does the wing better than he does, and i dont see him starting as a lone striker. so i wouldnt play him with petit + manuel + karagounis....not for starters at least

I think it should be Karagounis in the middle,Geovanni in the right,Simao left and Nuno Gomes up front,no? :undecide:

could be, but personally i seem to like manduca better on the wing, he sure works more than geovanni and is tactically more disciplined, as geovanni always ends up playing in the middle , and we end up with a limp :D

Is it so? Then I refuse to know that. :stuckup: I'm a faithfull supporter who doesn't turn his back on one of his favourite players after three years of injuries. ;) And I reckon many of those who nowadays "know" his days are over have been those who so overexaggeratingly called him the new Eusebio beforewards, who proclaimed him a miracle, a prodigy only yet to croak with the crows above his head. I won't contribute, no thanks. :)
Would be a historical mistake by our club to let him down (nobody believed Simoes when he said so about Deco, now nobody might believe me until Mantorras tries his fortunes elsewhere), he still has it and will prove it, wheresoever.
Cara de Koe-man should be the one who's days (in charge at Benfica) are counted.

we winning but we need to play better than this...

once more the Koe-Man :)D) is clueless....alcides instead of nelson, karagounis should play ahead of petit and maneul imo and not instead of manuel, and the worst....unlike everyone else, the Koe-Man seems to have trouble realising that manduca cant play as striker :rollani:

leo , petit, geovanni and moretto are doing great :thmbup:

let's see what happens in the 2nd half, but i hope geovanni keeps playing as striker, and manduca gets replaced by manuel

BENFICA!!!!!!!! :fero:

4-0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D

nuno :star: simão:star:

with petit and leo playing awesome tonight :star:

Well at least we won but of course we were playing against a pathetic team like Penafiel...... :eekani: :thmbdown: ,i like Leo,great! :thumbsup:

About the former player of P.S.V....no words are needed.... :rolleyes:
 
#22 ·
i dont think u should refer to the Koe-Man as the former PSV player...he was an awesome player....and he is a poor coach.....by doing it, u are complementing him :D
 
#23 ·
finally a statement by our team :star: , yet as kleber so well mentioned, against a pretty lousy team though, still I hope it helps the team to gain confidence.
VIVA BENFICA! :proud:

That victory however will keep Koe-Man in charge for another 20 weeks :rolleyes: ;)
