Capdevilla will not play in the CL according to the final list. Who will substiture Emerson if he gets injured?
Nice result! I'll take a win any day over the "artistic note". As a team we still look considerably weak. Defense must prove itself. I don't...
The best players leave to other countires to make higher salaries, nothing Porto, Benfica or Sporting can do about it.
We could talk about Benfica being a team that doesn't take advantage of the chances it gets. Like the last 3 games is a good example. Today a la...
JJ needs to pull some ears after this game. Players need to learn that Artistic Note comes second to efficiency and scoring. Benfica needs to...

Just a suggestion: Can we stop posting on this thread and start one with a more positive note. Title is a bit old by now. New year, some good...
I like the 2nd option. Is Gaitan or Witsel the best option to take over Aimar's role when he is off the field or eventually leaves us for good?...
Regarding Nolito on left and Gaitan on right I completely agree. Fact is when we play with real extremos our attack is a lot more potent. It...
Good result going into the away game. The defense didn't allow a goal 2nd game in a row. Normally this is not a significant stat but give...
Another BS hit piece from the Record. See Benfica's website posting regarding the Ricardo Costa piece. Quite honestly even Abola puts out lots of...
Good luck JJ, there's at least 3 spots I personally can't make my mind on yet. 1st, Bruno Cesar is not ready yet. Hmm to put it simply, diet a...
Got the Lusopack with Dish and been watching Benfica TV. So far the story line Benfica is putting out is their efforts to have two good players...
We'll be making yet another big mistake if we don't keep Urreta. What? He is not technical or tactical good enough? He is fast and plays down...
Gaitan also looked good. With one year under his belt I'm hoping he will break out bit time. Matic also looked good. Will have to adjust his way...
So far I like what i see in Bruno Cesar. Nice accurate passes. Hope JJ puts in a lot more of the new players on the 2nd half so we can check...
Sitting at home with a glass of Port and Benfica TV on to see first friendly and check out new players. Not a bad Saturday morning. Good weekend...
The Fabio Coentrao dealings with Madrid is starting to smell bad. Coentrao already in Madrid without a deal confirmed. LFV going to Madrid...
Ok if you want a head then go ahead and don't go half way. I suggest all feeling the way you are demand LFV leaves as well. He certainly is as...
A little premature to fire JJ. Consistency is the biggest problem with Benfica. Firing the coach won't help that. Bottom line is Benfica is run...
Benfica changes too much, no team continuity... I really don't have much faith of Gaitan plahing the Aimar position for one reason alone, his...
Sporting fans, I feel sorry for you as your life must be so miserable that you resort to come here for some sort of pleasure. That third spot...
Trust me on this. You want Fabio Coentrao next!
I second that on Jardel. Sidney gives me a couple of heart attack moments each game. I actually felt sorry for Luisao today. He worked so hard in...
Benfica a team running out of gas. Hopefully now JJ will rotate players more and give priority to UEFA. Gaitan and Salvio way below their form due...
