IDK they showed the VAR lines on the television and apparently he was onside by 5 whole centimetres lol. So I'll take it. I think it just means one less round of Europa League qualification. Although hopefully next year, 3rd place will mean a CL qualifying spot. But the fact is we're nowhere near Benfica or Porto in terms of quality, this team is awful. Only a few players are worth keeping.
Can we petition for Jese's girlfriend to play instead? She'd basically do the same thing he does and it gives us something to look at: https://www.record.pt/multimedia/fo...ens-prendas?ref=HP_1BucketDestaquesPrincipais
Liga is back, we have a chance to get closer to Famalicao at least. Starting XI: Luís Maximiano (getting the start again); Rosier, Ilori (he's actually played decently), Mathieu, Acuña; Doumbia, Wendel, Bruno Fernandes; Jesé, Vietto, Luiz Phellype
We havent had a shot. But also Gil plays with a defense line with 6 players, they have the bus and the plane parked.
We desperately need a CB who can give any sense of calm and reliability at the back, it's been a nightmare for years now.
We cant score either. As much as Dost was a pylon at least against these teams he could score a header from all these crosses.
How is Plata not getting playing time? Cant be worse than any or these scrubs and he can only improve. Plus hes not on loan..
This ref is a complete joke. He gives an offside and then a red for Doumbia, then calls him back a minute later and rescinds the red because it happened after the offside
How much more can we take? It's December 1st and we're 13 points back of first. When will we get someone in charge that knows what they're doing?
(1) Vitor Oliveira🎙#GilVicente (Sporting CP Issues)"I know this is unpleasant to say and it is not meant to be rude, but this is the opinion of a football man. For better results, you need better players."— PortugueseSoccer.com ⚽️ (@PsoccerCOM) December 2, 2019 (2) Vitor Oliveira🎙#GilVicente (Sporting CP Issues)"You can change the manager or president, but you need better players to get back to the level of a great team you've have been."— PortugueseSoccer.com ⚽️ (@PsoccerCOM) December 2, 2019 This sums it up for me. Summer transfer window was a catastrophe and we still have Acuna at LB and Coates at CB. The talent level just isn’t there.
Yeah and those who signed the likes of Jese need to go. Get a real director of football. Varandas was the one saying he flew around with Viana to make these last minute deals and now is super quiet. He shouldnt be making these deals you should have a director of football doing that.
Best case scenario - let's say we had prime PdC as president, how did you envision the last off season going? Did you seen us competing for the title this year?
How the hell should I know? Lol. I just want to see a more talented squad out there. The lack of youth team players forming a spine of the squad is glaring.
