James Rolle 514 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Nothing to fear. They are 2-0 down now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dado'sMulls 2,625 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 They move the ball forward quickly at times but defensively they can be got at. High line and don't like the press. Getting humped 2-0 now bring these cunts on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a reason why they were knocked out of the CL qualifiers by PAOK with Chuba Akpom up front. Only thing I can see is they have a bit of pace, so I would be looking to start Balogun and Goldson, which I think would be the case any way. I see Akpom has now joined Middlesborough for £2.75 million , hopefully Alfie will ragdoll Vertonghen, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenoz 30,959 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Is this the 11 that will play against us? I never rated those two centre halves when they were at Spurs & Man C Boavista haven't even won a game yet this season! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dado'sMulls 2,625 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Like that number 17 for Boavista, he's fucking rapid. Absolutely roasting their right back for pace. Step up Brandinho Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good side but without question beatable and not superior to the Porto side we played last season. Do they have a strong team out? Not seen any of it. Edit. Just seen your post above.

plumbGER 24,518 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 It's mad to think this is the first time we have played them despite both clubs illustrious' careers. It's a shame fans can't get to visit and get to know one another, always found the Portuguese very frienfly and placid. Onto the game and i'd bit the hand off you right now for a draw, they will be pretty on the eye but lets hope our physical pressing style upsets them.

johanhentze 14,167 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Benfica losing 3-0. The look really disorganised and are quite all out attack.. We could hurt them! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dazzareyes 220 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 The good thing for us is that they never had the chance to take off some of their players with the game in the bag, We have a chance, execute our game plan and I think we have a real opportunity to come back with a positive result.

James Rolle 514 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Game over. Hopefully that would have taken a lot out of them. We really have a chance, we need to be at it but we will get chances, hoping our front guys have their shooting boots on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
