some good teams left

watching benfica psv now

some quality players on show who'd be good for us - Coentrao, Cordoza...

Cordozo is an absolute donkey imo

Watching Porto to see what all the fuss is about, Spartak have been better so far.

jeeeeeeeez, that's like asking me what's me favourite out of hot dogs, pizza, ben and jerry's, and doritos

Oops, didn't mean to interrupt 😃

Machete and Dools, should we be concerned about you two?

no no, nothing to worry about, we're fine - you save your concerns for arsene and his flawed policy

armor, you're here to save the thread?!!

Ha, you sure you don't want me and cal to leave you to it :glee:

haha no, keep an eye out for that porto centreback we've been linked with

Just watching a bit of Porto - great goal by Falcao; diving header from a great cross by Perreira.

ricky watch benfica mate, playing some great stuff - coentrao is sublime going forward. Really is what we need

Just seen the half-time stuff on Benfica, Coentrao looked good - shame we don't need a left back. 😉

In all seriousness, it highlights how little our fullbacks contribute to our attacking game, not so much in the cross from the byline - that's a fraction of a fullbacks attacking threat - but in passing and running beyond the ball. With how strong we are through the middle and because teams stay so narrow and compact to fight that - flying fullbacks would kill our opponents. I'm so so disappointed with how we use our fullbacks and how little they give us.
