LE FG 3ª J: SL Benfica 3 - 3 Rangers FC, 05Nov. Qui. 17h55 *SIC*

[Livrinhos]

Ola!

Rangers fan here - I come in peace! I learned German in school, so my Portuguese tongue is non existent, but I hope your translators work as well as mine did when reading this thread.

I always like to visit opposition forums (in EL/UCL games) prior to us meeting to gain an understanding of the thoughts of the other side.

Much like Porto and Braga last season, there is a lot of confidence and arrogance, which usually works to our advantage, so please may it continue 

As has been suggested by some of you already, we do enjoy playing against Portuguese teams - your style and tactics are ineffective against our set-up and, apart from 45 minutes versus Braga, we were not troubled by two of your supposed "top teams".

Please ignore the confidence of a minority of fans you may have seen on Facebook - we all know that Benfica are the best team in Portugal, and we will have our most difficult test of the season on Thursday. As things stand, we would take a draw right now. But I would certainly not be surprised if we secured yet another victory in what has already been a very impressive season for us. Since the return of football in late summer, we have only been defeated once in eighteen games - a tight 0-1 loss to Bayer Leverkusen when we were not match-fit. We totally dominated Celtic a couple of weeks ago and dispatched Galatasaray with relative ease to make it in to the Groups. Its funny because prior to that game I read very similar opinions from the Turks - "we will destroy the Scots" and "if we fail to beat this team we cannot consider ourselves a top club in Europe". All very disrespectful, but also helpful because that kind of attitude is what we need to help us overcome so-called superior teams.

Player by player, you guys obviously have a more expensive team with more European pedigree. I cannot dispute that. Benfica are the favourites for this match.

Rangers have a Colombian international in Morelos, who took the EL by storm last season, up front currently valued at €22m. He is supported by Ryan Kent, a €10m signing from Liverpool last season, who will easily command a similar transfer fee as above, when he moves on. Our midfield is patient and drilled - they know where they need to be and will win most of their battles. We tend to allow the opposition to pass the ball, maybe getting possession to 65-70%. It is ultimately meaningless though - this is our plan. You can pass all day, but will rarely breach our final third.

Then we have a defence that has conceded just 3 goals in 18 domestic games. Three. In eighteen games. The Scottish league is poor (outside Rangers/Celtic the level is lower English Championship or upper League One) but even at that, it is still a phenomenal achievement. Barasic, our left back, is a stalwart Croatian internationalist and has also been linked with multi-million € moves. Our central defence is almost impenetrable, and our Keeper - the silver fox 38 year old McGregor is one of the best keepers we've ever had at the club. Lets not forget, we've still to concede a goal in the group stage either. Lech didn't even get a shot on target - and these guys took two off of you.

Without doubt this will be Benfica's biggest test this season, as it will be ours. I look forward to a very exciting match on Thursday. Porto, Braga and Sporting have faced us within the last 10 years and have all lost against us. Looking forward to see if you guys can do better!

It will be all about the team Jesus will choose to play against you guys. Atm i think there should be some more rotation, because we have some players that doesnt seem in a good form, Everton is the most blatant case. Teams will start suffering from this intense schedule, and i just hope Jesus make some rotation in the next European matches, after winning the first two matches of the group stage.

What about you guys? Looking for some kind of rotation?

Veri naice!
Ele que aprenda a escrever português olha o caralho, vcs vão para os foruns estrangeiros escrever tuga? Então barda merda, escreva português!
Ó camone armado em sean connery da arrentela, iu spique tuga or gette da fóque aute!
Put da haggis in da peida!!!!

Menos.

Ou?

Acho que não se perde nada em ter algum fairplay. Ou pelo menos não entrar em tom de gozo.

Put da haggis in da peida é uma grande frase, bem grunho, boa sonoridade, nao achar piada não é um problema meu!
Nao vamos gozar com ninguem, depois de ler que o rangers é de champions league, e que nao sofre golos do haggistão se não é gozo é chamar-nos de parvo!


PUT DA HAGGIS IN DA PEIDA!!!!


Vai comer um cozido ó highlander!

vergonha alheia

ou como se diz em inglês

alheie shame

Adoro portugueses arrogantes. Devíamos ser mais assim 😁

[XineloBranco]

[komytis]

Se fosse um brasileiro a escrever  em portugues aos trambolhoes era corrido daqui ao pontapé mas como é um camone bora la ser simpatico e o caralho, que desenmerde em português uma ou outra frase nao espero um livro, mas que se esforce!
E continuo na minha.....


Haggis in da peida!
Conheço-os bem!

[Londrino-85]

Também dei um salto ao fórum deles... Têm mais membros que o nosso SB.

Vi um post engraçado.

Somos parecidos porque o rival deles é como o nosso, verdes às riscas na mesma cidade. Mas isto dito de uma forma mais "rude", chamando-lhes orcs! 🤣🤣🤣

O nosso rival é o porto.

Depende do ponto de vista.

Eu como ribatejano, onde cresci, havia tipo um andrade.

A minha rivalidade sempre foi com os lagartos.

Claro que nos últimos anos isso mudou muito.

Isso é coisa bacoca. Eu quero ganhar sp e a única equipa q nos faz frente são os corruptos. O resto é folclore.

I remember pretty well the way you won in the stoppage time against a ridiculous and terrible team of Sporting in 2011. But i'm not sure you remember so well that we had in that season: Benfica, Braga and Porto in the semi finals of the competition with the Dublin Final between Braga and Porto.

Last year you've faced Porto and Braga and you were superior. But note that it was the worst Porto side of the decade.

Lets now wait for Thursday!

PS: Against Lech it wasn't that easy for you guys. I've seen the Poles wasting pretty good chances to score in your own Stadium.

When you see seferobicho in your face you will scream and run away.

[força Benfica]

Next!

[ravie]

Mudar o chip rapidamente.

Ganhar e jogar bem.

[J_PN]

Levaremos na bilha.

[slbenfever]

Mais uma vergonha a caminho!

[imightbewrong]

Com a equipa que tem e com o treinador que tem vai ser um jogo muito dificil para o Benfica.

[Jorge.P_]

Mais uma vergonha?

Os escoceses a falar em distruir mais uma equipinha tuga desde o sorteio e quando estou na expectativa de uma resposta à altura... andam a perder por 3 com o Boavista.

Enfim, é o que há.
