Another 3 month suspension for BdC. Still don't know what it accomplishes, except that if you add up all his suspensions it's probably like 1000 years or something;
Rui Patricio, William, Bruno fernandes and Gelson called to the NT for Andorra and Switzerland. Coentrao not called up (thankfully)
Gelson Dala scored a hat trick today against Santa Clara. I understand the second division isn't the Liga, but his form can't be ignored. He's consistent.
Seydou Doumbia out for 3 weeks after getting injured vs. Barcelona Will miss the Juventus game in Turin
All for diving. Wilmots (Ivory Coast manager) said 2 months. Bring up Dala (that's never happen) and give minutes to Podence
Yeah I saw the headlines but wasn’t sure if it was just nothing. Dude gets all the opportunities in the world here not sure why’d he’d ask out. Gelson Dala getting an oppurtunity, Podence getting more minutes and Alan Ruiz potentially wanting out certainly look like silver linings lol But it could also be the moment our season implodes
Still early. Dost walked off on his own. I think he's alright. Alan asking to leave cracks me up. Dudes a fat slob. He's lucky he even got the minutes. Dala and Podence provide more upside and it's not like any of our forwards were doing much anyways.
Bruno Fernandes named player of the month again for September. Also won goal of the month (against Tondela) and finished 2nd for Midfielder of the month behind Danilo. Rui Patrício, Jeremy Mathieu and Jorge Jesus finished 3rd in their respective categories as well.
Although I'm still cheesed at yesterday's performance, this article made me smile a bit: http://tuvaisvencer.blogspot.ca/2017/11/intoxicacao.html
Cheers for sharing. Quite like their latest blog post too http://tuvaisvencer.blogspot.ca/2017/11/um-odio-de-estimacao-chamado-jorge-jesus.html?m=1
Yes he's the scapegoat for everything that's wrong, but he did get a lot more power as well so he has to be held accountable when things go wrong. He had a great first season with us which should have seen us become champions, but the pieces were already there from Leonardo Jardim/Marco Silva. Then the 2nd season happened. This year he has better pieces but making the same mistakes with substitutions. My biggest concern is he doesn't seem to want to change - his methods are perfect and its everyone else that's wrong. On another note, as we all could tell after the last game, there's now a lot of criticism aimed toward us and Nuno Saraiva's post about Braga didn't help. We've now become the target again. Also our supposed "allies" Porto (lets be real, any alliance only benefits them as they want to re-establish power again over the system) didn't hesitate to attack us after last game. EDIT: After Braga threatened for BdC to respond, here's his response: "Parece que António Salvador me lançou um desafio. Há uma desafio que não faço que é correr para a sala de imprensa do Sp. Braga, não preciso disso. Depois, lanço-lhe um desafio: que vá ver as imagens de há três meses do lance do jogo com o Benfica e que me mande a conferência de imprensa a seguir a falar desse lance de fora de jogo. O resto são futriquices, e isso não é comigo"
