Just too bad to be true.

Thinking about booking next flight to Athens and propose a manager swap with Olympiacos.

This one will be better business for greek restaurants, Marco Silva said yesterday in A Bola that he only ate salads so far.

Many refined Europeans fear greek food and rightly so.  Some of the restaurants are not that good.  However if you use common sense and learn to read a restaurant's environment before you enter - you can eat well.

Player ratings?

I was kidding. It was not what he meant. He said that he didn't had any difficulty adapting to life in Greece and that him and his family had eaten mostly salads so far because it's so hot.

Player ratings?

Júlio César 7
Nélson Semedo 3
Luisão 3
Lisandro 4
Eliseu 5
Samaris 8
Pizzi 4
Ola John 3
Gaitán 5
Mitroglou 5
Jonas 5

...

Victor Andrade 6
Carcela 4
Raúl Jimenez -- (subbed in at the end, barely touched the ball)




Samaris was very good. Way better than Fejsa was last week. But most of the forum disagrees with me apparently.

Mitroglou was dangerous in the air but had very little ball. Because we have a terrible coach but also because he is too god damn slow at the moment. But his touches were good.

Semedo best of the 4 in the back.
Luisão by far the worst.
Andrade was selfish. Not a 6...

I don't know if this discussion is going on at the main forum because I didn't wanna read but Semedo is clearly to blame for the goal.

Luisão could do better but because he was the one next to the ball, the entire back-line should've adjusted to his position.

So although he was the one putting Roberto onside, it's not his fault. Semedo should've read the play and close in the middle, instead of leaving that space between him and Luisão.

Benfica needs three "reforcos" for their starting lineup or we are going to have a crappy year. Eliseu is garbage.. slow,sloppy and isnt the greatest at attacking. Pizzi is not a central midfielder and we need someone who can link our team together.. there is no way possible that samaris which is our cdm was doing way more passes than pizzi which was only passing the ball to the sides instead of taking on the game and being the organizer.. and then theres another winger especially if gaitan goes...

Any Benfiquistas want to educate some Greeks on what Porto did to your league?

Feel free to join up and teach them.
