    It makes me upset that people obviously go out of their way to shit on a young player.
    Felix is suffering from defensive tactics of
    The coach but there is no doubt in my mind that he will become a top player, and perhaps even win the ballon dor one day!

    If I was coaching Atletico, I would do things much different than Simeone. Felix would be the focal point of my
    Team and we would play with much more attacking intent and possession.

    He got an assist. The other players weren’t doing shit either. The whole team sucks. It’s a defensive team. He’s not fit for it.

    A defensive team... People really don't watch to see Atletico has more possession and plays in their opponents half. But when the ball gets up to the golden boy it's turn over after turn over.

    Just like when he plays for Portugal.

    He doesn’t fit the teams current tactics. Only people with limited tactical knowledge or with no coaching experience fail to understand this.

    A couple of years ago, I had a fullback on my side who was really great defensively but had a lot of work to do going forward. I had an honest conversation with him and he left my team to another where he suits that coaches defensive strategy much better.

    I’m tired of this kid being the scapegoat.

    Simeone is close to getting fired. Hopefully Atlético Madrid loses again and they part ways with Simeone, because I believe he’s the problem.

    Felix is obviously a talented kid, but this whole "doesnt fit the system" excuse is clear bs. Truly great players adapt to any system. Truly great players give it their all too, Felix is just a little bitch. His body language on the pitch is disgusting. Ronaldo cries and complains, but he always gives it 100%, this kid doesn't.

    This. All I hear are excuses. How come none of the Felix apologists are ever there to back up guys like Gelson, Leao, Andre Silva, etc.? Because they're not SLB players.

    It's like everyone is so convinced that after only ONE season at the senior level in the piss poor Portuguese league, this dude is the next Ronaldo.

    Homers gonna homer.

    According to your logic De Bruyne is not a good player. Couldnt adapt to Mourinho (similar to Simeones) system.

    To the previous post ^ Those three players never showed the level Felix or even Rafa have shown in our league to even warrant hype. In Andre Silvas case he has been average everywhere. Just as i predicted....he has already been benched at Frankfurt. How many more benches does he need to be sat on until you and gooddead can admit he sucks?

    In the case of Gelson he never showed much even in the Portuguese league. Leao only had 1-2 months of decent play at Lille where he was later benched. This season at Milan he has been benched for large portions and only recently is starting games partnered with Ibrahimovic.

    There are no Braga fans here to talk to so there is not much point.

    Let's deal with relevant issues like how embarrassing the Portuguese Sport media was not putting Kobe Bryant's death as the leading story but instead talking about Benfica...again. Proving again the media is just a vehicle to sell SLB propaganda.

    Absolutely pathetic shit. On Sunday, Barcelona lost Real Madrid won and took over first place... In Portugal nobody played except Benfica.

    The top 3 news in Spain vs top 3 in Portugal:

    As if rigging the league in Benfica's favor wasn't enough.

    Really hope this pathetic country gets destroyed at the Euro. They deserve every bit of it.

    Basketball isn’t nearly as popular in Portugal
    as it is in Spain...
    I don’t see the point of blaming them for it...

    It's sad and embarrassing. I had friends in Portugal post this on social media with face palm emojis wondering what the hell is wrong with their sport media.
