    Just watch how they attack. They attack with so many players. They're risks are paying off

    This is correct. Depending on how this season goes, I don’t expect Varandas to be here much longer.

    Spending all that money on horrible players like Esgaio is laughable.

    This is a reality check. After this our competition is with Besiktas for 3rd place, that's it.

    Porto going toe to toe with Atletico. Even Brugge holding PSG.

    Porto is the only PT team that seems to know how to play in Europe. Sometimes benfica does. We are just downright embarassinf

    Y'all underestimate Ajax, I'd kill to have Antony on our team.

    No Pote, Coates, healthy Inacio and Nuno Mendes are heavily missed though. 4 of our best players last season. Would definitely help to have them today

    Me neither. After recovering from losing the entire team and getting our first title in 19 years, we have to move quickly to get rid of this guy at the first sign of trouble.

    And now it's 1-4 Haller Hattrick.

    Night all, that's me done :)

    What's the point in a back 3 if they can still end up with 2 players unmarked inside the box when a cross comes in?

    It's a pandemic and we had no European football. Don't think we can blame Varandas entirely

    You have to have good players. Not Esgaio, Luis Neto and Inacio.

    Feels like the 2005 Uefa cup
    Final against cska where we hit posts etc and get ripped apart on counter attacks

    Matheus Nunes doesn't deserve this result. He's worked his socks off

    I'd rather have Palhinha at CB if we literally have no options.
