Benfica drew, meaning their points gap this weekend has been cut from 4 to 2... and they travel to Porto next.

He is a joke. His tactics are simply play for the draw, if we score then defend and if they score carry on defending until the last 5 !! Pardew and Pulis are peas in a pod.

Benfica are 0-1 down at home to Estoril.

Shame.

Piss off.

People must do this on purpose. The only explanation.

Not watching this shite like. Fuck that.

No chance of a Stoke away win I'm afraid.

Chin up lads

Poorly photoshopped pictures of an attractive young female together with Alan Pardew, complete with captions and set to the sound of a 1995 German dance track.

Yeovil away; Shola upfront, Pardew in the dugout.

Goal-vil

I still don't buy that video as legit, nee chance.

RIP

:lol:

They work well, that's basically it. While other portuguese clubs struggle to pay their salaries, promising more than they can handle, they are rigorous and honest to all the players and staff. Instead of buying tons of brazilians, they invest in lower leagues players. Portuguese players. I bet they will have some nice deals by the end of the season as well. Oh, and they try to play and have possession. They don't sit waiting, no matter what's the opponent. Even in Estádio da Luz, they tried to press higher than most teams. That's a key factor. Positive football = positive results. 2 games left. If they win one, or Braga fails to win both, they will be in the Champions League playoff. While spending way less than Sporting or Braga. By only being there, even if they get destroyed, the 2013/14 season is paid. Their manager, Paulo Fonseca, will surely progress in his career. Braga may be the next step for him. I would keep an eye on him, he's still young, 40. I think he was mostly curious as to how a 3rd place team only attracts 1700 people per game. But thanks for that info. Not really. They're a very small club in a country of gloryhunters( ), I assume those attendances are the norm. The amazing thing and what I was asking about was the achievements on those attendances and budget.

Terrible.

Paços de Ferreira have the lowest attendances (1,776 average) in the Portuguese league but are on target to finish 3rd and get CL. Benficans care to explain how?

Nicking that.

Loved how annoyed he was with himself. Brilliant run.

If he gets 3 more goals he'll be only the 2nd player since 1957 to score 30 goals in a Serie A season (Luca Toni did it in 05/06).

Oh well.
