Leftpegcoopz11 4,730 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Even though Balogun got caught out with an overhead pass (maybe two, cannae mind) I would tend to start him in this game ahead of Helander simply for pace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being able to send a fringe team to Poland before Tannadice would be lovely Be good to be able to give the likes of Tav, Barisic and Kent a night off, get some euro experience to Bassey and Paterson as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corky True Legend 2,682 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Hope we don't continue with this faffing about with short goal kicks within the penalty box. Just asking for trouble as we nearly saw today on more than one occasion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Avenger 22,567 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Just looking forward to it. We are more than a match for them. Think we'll see an entertaining game and hopefully a victory. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenoz 30,832 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 People are underestimating Benfica just a tad. They were outplaying us until the red card. Tactically, they then took their best play maker off (Pizzi) and were missing the talented left back Grimaldo. This will be a very difficult game.

After game 4 we would be on 10 pts, Benfica 7 and assume Poznan win and are on 6. We lose to Stsndard and Benfica and Poznan draw, so now 10 points for us , 8 for benfica and 7 for Poznan. Final games Poznan beat us 2-0 and Benfica beat Standard. Final points us 10, Benfica 11 and Poznan 10 but a better head to head against us. Pessimistic Loyal. PS If we win I am sure we will go through as we will not lose our last 2 games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took out a BT deal at £25 per month, no contract and can cancel anytime. Each month covers 3 games so cost £8 a game.

GA1972 9,555 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 It’s as much about what we do as anything else Yes they’re a quality side but we started the game playing scared a bit last time, if we go out and play with the confidence on the ball that we should then we can be more than a match for them Their recent results have been poor as well, beaten at home by Braga after we played them and trounced by Boavista before. It’s Benfica not Bayern Munich and we’re capable of beating them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sausagetrunks 6,022 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 im still fucking raging about the 3-3 draw. lol, ffs, Benfica have conceded another 3 at home to Braga. Benfica 2-3 Braga Benfica are still a very good side and dangerous, will be a very difficult game, we would have been thro if we had better game management near the end of game but theyre conceding and there seems to be problems with squad and not playing to great atm, thats me just reading their forum. win this and were thro.

GersInCanada 7,775 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 While I would take a draw I expect us to beat Benfica. Which says a lot about how far we have come. Win this one and we win the group and are seeds for the knockouts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunk and disorderly. 14,418 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 This will be a difficult game. Should be lots of goals. Have to heavy attack to make sure we score more than them imo. 3-2 with Morelos to bag a brace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we lose this game Poznan will be a very tough game in Poland. I actually think we will get at least a point on Thursday but you never know with Europeam ties.
