So, who will replace Conceição and take advantage of the kids that won the Youth League?
Reminder we can still win the League, Benfica played like shit in the 2018 part of last season and won the league anyway, the problem is Conceição, just like theirs was Vitória

Don´t ask for much, i only want Porto to win the league while playing decent football and play as equal against the top teams of Europe.

Actually mate that sounds like you're asking for quite a lot.
>The coach is to blame when the board let ten of our players some of them for free in the transfer market.
Yeah i don't understand you guys.
leave*
>not promoting PdC to player-manager
>thinking that a Lage can happen that easily
Kek. And you are missing how strong Benfica's squad is and how Lage already have the mechanics worked out and the only thing left is to get much better.
>portuguese fans
>supporting the idea of Vitor Oliveira as a coach in one of the big 3, hell, even Guimaraes or Braga
Nah, we suck. For some reason Manuel José never managed to train a big team here again despite winning the shit he did.
You should be used to that. When Benfica won in 2009, Jesus also had to deal with that and IN JANUARY. Vitoria also paid that price.
>For some reason Manuel José never managed to train a big team here again despite winning the shit he did.
Manuel José burned a lot of bridges with his arrogance coupled with a lot of bad results in the 90s. Telling everyone you're the greatest while losing against some shitter makes you persona non grata pretty quickly.
>Misses the CL for the first time in 8 years
>Muh Youth league
>Muh win the league
>Muh just want to compete with the best
Get a grip and prepare for years of pain
The thing is, he trained Benfica when shit was happening. And Sporting when is always happening shit.
But yeah, the way he speaks, how frontal and arrogant it sounds damaged him a lot, even he admmits that.
>take advantage of the kids
>let ten of our players some of them for free in the transfer market
the board couldn't afford to give them new contracts
the choice was to sell them for a small amount of money and lose the championship for sure, or let them stay until the end and have a shot at winning... it was a decent gamble that didn't pay off
The reason I say that is because if Rui comes everyone will be expecting from him the same success that Mourinho and Avb had.
>And you are missing how strong Benfica's squad is
Porto's is just as good, it only has a bad coach, like Benfica had one year ago
>and how Lage already have the mechanics worked out and the only thing left is to get much better.
And Benfica didn't have that before Lage. The season is only starting, Porto has more of an advantage than Benfica then
You have to be completely delusional to think Porto's squad is as good as Benfica's.
>Porto's is just as good
it just isn't but after tonight's disaster players will have to be sold, porto will never be able to comply with FFP without the CL money
With a good coach FC Porto's squad is as good as Benfica's
The only thing missing are true replacements for Danilo and Alex Telles, which Benfica has
>not marcano and pepe
porto's central defenders are ancient and it shows
Who are Leite and Osório!?
>inb4 literally who
Who are Dias and Ferro then?
>Leite and Osório
then why haven't they been playing?
Because, and that is the point I've been trying to make here, Conceição is retarded, so was Vitória before Lage came in
Because obviously, Casillas doesnt get income and is there for years for free. Or this new keeper that seems to be receiving like 4 or 5 million
Or Marcano that leaves and then gets back one year later.
So, now Conceição is bad? Benfica had Vitoria for 3 years, not just one, his cycle was over which was the problem
Lage's work is there. If you dont want to see it, fine. But it is there without a Felix, but Pizzi and Rafa are playing the same and working well together, how RDT sometimes is the 3rd midfielder, how the LB and RB go up and how others back up the space, how Ferro does long passes, the way the team positions on the field, the plays they do...
The only things missing are a better shape in some players and RDT breaking the ice.
And Benfica's squad is much better. Gabriel or Samaris would bench shit like Sergio Oliveira. Any of the wingers would be starters at Porto, and I am counting Zikvovic and Cervi. Cbs one of the kids would be better than 2 old slow guys. RB even Tavares is better than the shit you have. Forwards maybe RDT, but here everything seems similar in terms of characteristics. Grimaldo/Telles and Danilo/Florentino have different characteristics but all good
>So, now Conceição is bad?
Conceição is only good to bring back passion to a team, not to build a team
>Lage's work is there.
Nobody denied that, you idiot. My fucking point was precisely that Benfica was shit before Lage, then Lage came and made a good team with the same players of Vitória. If that happened at Benfica it can happen at Porto with Conceição gone
>Gabriel or Samaris would bench shit like Sergio Oliveira
Gabriel yes, Damaris maybe
Any of the wingers would be starters at Porto, and I am counting Zikvovic and Cervi.
(You)
>RB even Tavares is better than the shit you have.
Who is Tomás Esteves? And no, you can't say a literally who, if he is a literally who then so is Tavares
>Cbs one of the kids would be better than 2 old slow guys
Of course Ferro and Dias are better than Pepe and Marcano. But so are Diogo Leite and Osório
>Forwards maybe RDT, but here everything seems similar in terms of characteristics.
When playing well out strikers are as good as Benfica's, and when Benfica strikers play like shit they are as bad as our right now. Or did you forget how shit Seferovic and Rafa were?
>Rafa and Pizzi play on the wings
>best players in the league
>but not for Porto
Sure, whatever. And Zivkovic is good and if they find some german club then we will regret.
>Seferovic
Played well when he arrived, Vitoria benched and fucked him over. Rafa had injuries, but it seems people forget about that part which was one of the reasons why he barely played. In the big games every time he was available he played and played well, like against Sporting and Braga
The point is that Benfica squad is much better than Porto, especially on subs. That doesnt mean that Porto is bad.
I hope he dies soon. Fucking cancer.
Problem is we can’t even dispose of Marcano or Saravia for example. They literally just got here.
If we could abort their transfers (lel) and sell others (Marega), we could atleast bet on our youth or younger players (For example Osorio, wouldn’t do worse than Marcano).
We wasted money on old fuckers and we still missed out on the UCL. If we had no UCL from the beginning we would atleast bet on a younger side, going full Bruno Lage mode from the start:
Diogo Costa
Tomás Esteves, Pepe/Diogo Queirós, Osorio/Diogo Leite, Alex Telles
Danilo, Oliver, Baró
Corona, Diaz, Aboubakar
Literally 1 signing here (Diaz).
We sold Oliver for 12M to get Uribe.....
>In the big games every time he was available he played and played well, like against Sporting and Braga
Because he was a counter-baby
12th place
Why do you care? You never had a chance to win the UCL and you do in fact have a chance to win the UEL. I could bet that if you don't get matched against some absolute giants that got into UEL instead of UCL by a series of unfortunate mistakes, you will at least reach the semifinals.
I'll just stop watching football for the rest of this season. Bye.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
tfw marchesin and uribe to porto
tfw no UCL
lol
porto are in a real shitty financial situation right now, missing out on CLbux could very well mean handing benfica the league for the next year or 2
>the board couldn't afford to give them new contracts
But we can afford to buy some shitty players for the same ammount of money it would cost to raise those players that left?
Yeah i'm not buying that son
I still think the problem is Sergio himself as well as someone else leading the team. (Remember when he didn't let Casillas play)
Seling Oliver as a horrible decision but the other players were already convinced by Atletico and other clubs, so the only one who had a chance to stay was Herrera.
I can't also comprehend what was going in Sergio's head when he bought Nakajima.
This season will be a easy win for Sporting or Benfica and Porto will most likely get 4th-5th place
Pinto da Costa is old and shouldn't be the president but should still be a crucial figure in the club, read "Largos Dias Têm 100 Anos"

weak minded onions boy
>This season will be a easy win for Sporting or Benfica and Porto will most likely get 4th-5th place
Sporting will be nowhere near winning the league, and it will most probably end up
1-Benfica
2-Porto
>4th-5th
Yikes. Talk about overreacting. And I’m blackpilled, I’m the one you replied to.
Might be a bit of an overreaction but I'm pretty sure the Benfica-Porto will be a humiliation.
