Official SL Benfica Thread

fvckin ragin, i have 8 tickets for the benfica game in lisbon and there is only six of us going,all of which are in the celtic end....pah!








.

 

Celtic v Cophenhagen ....6th December...last game

 

argh timmy, why didn't you say that earlier?

 

Marty, the problem with those tickets is that you could be sitting beside TIMMY!



(JOKE)

 

Have to agree that our last three games are harder than Benfica's. Benfica are at home to us. Then we have to play Man U when they will not have won the group (is there an advantage to winning group??) while Benfica play Copenhagen at home. Then we have a tough game against Copenhagen away while Benfica almost certainly play Man U reserves. Not sure if Fergie would do us any favours if he could. Favours could would stem from pride in his Scottish background (lets hope) or his Rangers background (in which case no favours will be given) and then there are the factors of the 'battle of Britain', Fergie's ex-blue-nose pride and his 'feud' with WGS which could come into play. All sounds very 'tabloid' but Fergie can be a petty grudge holding type. In fact I feel a thread coming on...

 

The advantage of winning the group means that you cant play anyone that won their group in the 1st Knockout Stage

 

hey

good afternoon celtic mates. I´m nuno and I heard that jungle bhoys will make something about our slb angel miki fehér. in name of all 'benfiquistas' I wanna thank you and I hope all of you that going to make us a little visit may be received just like you deserve.
(sorry but my 'english' is a little rusty)
anyway, 3.0 was a little 'over reacting' (is this correct?)

 

I think we deserved to win but 3-0 flattered us abit imo, that why im not getting carried away......yet

 

I think you mean that 3-0 flattered our performance? Maybe but I think that Benfica were lucky that Maloney didnt score that overhead kick in the first 2 minutes then it could have been 4-0 or even 5-0.

 

yes you deserved to win but it was to much. may we talk about anything else besides the game ? it´s a little bit embarassing

 

Whats the Benfica probable line up and formation for the next match?

 

we´re going to play against our rivals porto.

quim
nelson luisao r.rocha leo

petit

katsouranis n.assis

simao

kikin n. gomes


this is the most probable line.up. miccoli was sent off in the last league game and he can´t play this game infortunatelly

 

Do you think benifca will win the league this year?

 

How was it too much? we managed to put the ball in the net 3 times and your team managed none thats football.

 

So miccoli will most likely start against us, having been "rested".

Would Simao not be best out wide left?

 

Amazing stadium.

 

none? katsouranis missed one goal too when the game still was 0.0 . and nuno assis hitted the bar in the response to your first goal but football is just like it is. and slb in the CL doesn´t demonstrate his real power, but I hope we can reach the quarter-finals again (and put man U out again ) but it´s difficult

 

Yes i think it will be difficult for you cos Man U are already through IMO, but if you beat us next week yous have a chance.

 

yes we can win the league but porto has a really great team and it´s going to be difficult. our defense is kind of 'confused' and I don´t know why.

 

There's more chance of East Fife winning the SPL in the next decade than there is of Benfica putting out Man U
