Pre-season (2024/25)

Wood does run around getting nowhere near anyone or the ball. Looks bit like a competition winner. Not that Wilson did much first half mind and it's only pre-season but I can't wait for us to get another striker in hopefully.

At least Riviere looked like he was trying and ran the channels bless him.

For vacations, besides Algarve of course, I would recommend the west coast, which has fantastic beaches and landscapes. The coast of Alentejo is pretty nice too, with beaches carved in the rocks, also calmer than Algarve.

 

Algarve is way too gentrified right now. I go there 1 week a year to have the best possible beach experience you can have here, but that's it.

 

In the northern part of Portugal I would recommend you to visit the Douro region, which has absolutely stunning views around the river where Porto wine is made. The north is way more green, people are nicer, food is better, compared to the south. Gerês is a fantastic natural reservoir.

 

If you like history, monasteries and castles, I would recommend places like Guimarães, Óbidos, Lisboa, Batalha/Alcobaça. Most of them are kind of related with British history as well as many troops fought and settled here after episodes like the Aljubarrota battle of 1385, or the French invasions.

Thanks ? (p.s. any chance you can you sort us a fan club in Guimarães?)

yep. Our countries were allies for hundreds of years against the French and Spanish.
