Quite amazing really that Benfica got 400 million euros for Felix, Enzo, Darwin and Goncalo Ramos on their current trajectories
Still got big hopes for him, but as it stands that is an absurd amount of money for those 4 players. Unfortunately there is a running theme with Portuguese players going to the wrong club for big money and fading into obscurity
We are so good going forward that even Marcus Edwards got himself back on the scoresheet! Seriously, could’ve been 8-0 tonight. Gyokeres is such an animal
I have no idea why Arsenal are not paying the €75mil. I thought they need a striker? He's smashed it in the Championship where they kicked lumps out of him and now is basically averaging 1.5 G/A a game at Sporting.
Sporting are incredible. One of the best teams I've watched in the Primeira Liga since I started taking an interest.
Spare a thought for poor Ricardo Velho btw, he was absolutely incredible last night and had 5 goals put past him. Got a hand on the penalty, made a brilliant save in the build up to the first and had an absolute bullet of an OG put past him by Lucas Áfrico. Some of the defending from Farense... Especially Moreno for Gyö's hat trick goal. Embarrassing.
I was wondering this last night! To be honest I have my reservations about how he would work in Arsenal’s set up. But another season at the rate he’s getting goals and assists and it would seem a complete no brainer for a Liverpool, Bayern etc. He’s so good
Completely missed this but Porto have signed Samu Omorodion. That could be a very, very good signing.
When you've already committed £65m to a player who is currently your #1 choice up front, it's a bit of a headache trying to keep them and your new ~£65m forward signing happy. That said, it is surprising no one bit on Gyokeres, even at his full price. Multiple clubs wanted Dariwn Nunez before he chose Liverpool and Gyokeres has looked more impressive in Portugal.
Blimey, Benfica could end up 5 points behind ourselves or Porto after gameweek 4 Big game tomorrow at this early stage. Think Porto will win it unfortunately as Amorim doesn’t have the best record against them
