Here is the squad called to face Amadora: Guarda Redes: Tiago e Stojkovic. Defesas:Abel, Paulo Renato, Gladstone, Polga, Tonel e Ronny. Médios:Carlos Paredes, Miguel Veloso, Pereirinha, Moutinho, Farnerud, Romagnoli, Izmailov, Vukcevic e Celsinho. Avançadosurovic, Yannick Djaló e Liedson. Celsinho has been called for the first time. Vukcevic and Stojkovic have gotten past their knocks and are fit to play...
How about Paulo Renato? Pereirinha is there, too. Rui Patricio and Adrien Silva were sent back to junior for the weekend but they'll be back training with the main squad on Monday...
this will be tough I think I think Sporting will win narrowly, but as long as we keep all three points thats all that matters to me.
Interesting decision for PB this weekend. Yannick was available just as Purovic returned from NT play. Who will he start, I think he'll go with Purovic. Estrela will park the bus, and nothing better then a tall forward for the crossing game.
0-2 for Sporting turned out to be a fairly straight forward win. Liedson and Vukevic scored the goals in the first half.
Great first half, shame I can't say the same for the second. Moutinho again with a excellent game, and if it wasn't for the work he did in the second half I would've shut off the TV. Vuckcevic had a strong game, just like about everyone. Ronny still looks lost, and his decision making is pretty bad. He's going to be our weakest link come CL. Nice easy win though, and could've been more had the ref seen the PK on Abel, but rather he gives him a yellow. Terrible, I hope the league punish these half ass ref's, and take Abel's yellow away.
Pretty routine victory...1st half excellend, 2nd half, not much soccer to watch. Moutinho was superb as was Polga. Now let's gear up to give Man U a fight.
Another pk wasn't called against Estrela, instead a FK was called just outside the box. Easily the worst ref in the SL . Ronny couldn't make a pass to save his life. Founeroud (sp.) sucks and should be sold off during the Winter trade window.
