Great goal from Salvio. Brilliant little bit of skill.
Porto 2-0 up, good strike from Verela. They look a decent side Porto, some very good players.
That was poor from Coentrao for PSV's goal there.
Hope our scouts in Portugal are busy
Who would you really, seriously take though?
Coentrao, fernando, falcao
Hulk, Falcao, Fernando, Coentrao, Ottamendi perhaps. Some good players moved last summer too - Cissokho, Bruno Alves. There is always talent in Portugal.
Coentrao and Hulk are the only two I'd take here.
Dules, I can't wait until Gibbs is doing his best Coentrao impression down our left wing and you're in love with him. It will happen.
In a video game, perhaps. If it does happen, it's still years away. Gibbs is just a couple of notches above Traore at present, and far below the error-prone Clichy
Gibbs won't amount to much
This Europa League tie between Benfica and PSV has come alive
Gorgeous goal from Luisao
Thats the thing with brazilian defenders. Luiz, Luisao, Lucio etc. You can't teach any other defenders that kind of technique
Not sure about that, Clrnc:
Coentrao was poor tonight. He's a very good attacking fullback, but very average defensively. In fact, I felt Benfica, after all they praise they go from the first leg, were shown up a little tonight.
Wow. That was brilliant tbf, never seen that before.
I know he scored some good goals from corners for Bolton though.
Falcao and Hulk are class
They were both shite when they played against us.
I don't watch the Portugese league but I've read Falcoas been great this season, would he make it here?
Falcao played against us? Don't remember that.
Pretty sure we won't win easily against these lots if we faced them this week.
Don't remember which goal (was it Fabianski's back pass fuck up?) but he scored against us too.
Edit - yeah, just checked. Falcao scored from that quick free kick in the away leg last season. Can't remember anything about his performance from either game though.
