I want to ask you guys what do you think about the amount of French players in your team? Is it something that bothers you, or it's fine?

I really like Cabaye, Sissoko and Ben Arfa, they are top class. Ben Arfa has a great talent, we would be great in Benfica  :iamatwat:

 

We have a few amount of Portuguese players in our team, and I'm sorry for that, I'd love having more national players, just like the old days.

The problem is that top portuguese players are very expensive... Coentrão is the perfect example.

 

At least things are better now than they were one year ago... Roderick Miranda, Luisinho, André Almeida, André Gomes, Carlos Martins...

I don't like Roderick, he scares me  :(

 

But we also have Rosa and Vítor, but they don't play. I'm sure that they'll show their true talent somewhere else.

João Cancelo, Fábio Cardoso, Ivan Cavaleiro, Miguel Rosa, Nélson Oliveira... The problem is that Maxi Pereira, Garay, Salvio, Gaitan, John, Cardozo or Lima are better

They are better in fact, but the Portuguese kids need a chance. When we sell those guys, we'll buy other foreign players, without giving a try with ours...

The thing is: do you really consider Miguel Rosa better than Djuricic? I don't :undecided:

Well, of course not, but Rosa never played, not even for one second! If Aimar and Carlos are leaving, can't he step up for the challenge?

Yes, but he plays as a left-winger or 10. We'll have Salvio, Gaitan, John, Djuricic, Enzo... He has no chance to play more than 15 games

What did you think of Fábio Faria? I sat next to him at the Gil Vicente game. Did he have heart condition or something?

15 games or not, he need a chance. He worked for it, the time is now.

 

Fábio Faria? Yes, he suffers from a heart condition and had to stop playing, unfortunately. Benfica bought him in 2010 from Rio Ave. Honestly, he's not a great player, I think Benfica only bought him to solve some economic questions with Rio Ave about Coentrão, who was from Rio Ave as well, but they had a small % on Fábio, so Benfica solved that.

 

I think he only played one game here, for the Portuguese Cup and he was lent to other clubs.

 

And, I can tell you, that his contract lasts until 2015, and, even though he can't play, Benfica will pay him until then  O0

Shame to have to retire at 23 but at least he'll not starve!

Hope you can get the win there  O0

 

We also play tomorrow in Guimarães, north of the country. It will be very hard, we're much better, but I'm afraid the team will be tired, because of the last game against Bordeaux.

So, your game is tomorrow, right?

 

United is about to play, hope that they won't win  :razz:

 

We play Wigan away at 1600 tomorrow, Wigan away is one of our bogey fixtures so I think most Toon fans would accept a point.

 

In Benfica, the fans can't accept other result than victory... but your league is more difficult too...
