Alright - I'm blowing the Ron Burgandy Channel channel 4 news team conq shell to all the Benfiquista bretheren (& sisteren)...
A Benfica win and a Lyon win or draw will leave SLB with a chance to play the final game vs. Schalke with their fate in their own hands. A Lyon win would give them 12 points, and a SLB win would give them 9 (Schalke has 7).
I feel like we've all been sleepwalking since the Porto debacle - one time, now!

Lyon did us no favors with that loss @ Schalke.
That said, I've looked at this as two wins as they're in. Hopefully, Jorgy can avoid shoe horning a CB into a fullback spot again.

first half we can't generate shots on target...Kardec had a great chance and skimmed it by the goal. We scored a legit goal that was ruled offsides. Their goal was unfortunate deflection off of Luiz. We need better passing from Coentrao, Gaitan, and Salvio. They need to step up.
Vamos!!!

The team doesn't know how to play from behind and has way too many defensive lapses during the course of 90 minutes.

Reports in the dailies over the weekend have David Luiz gunning his way out of town in January a la Moutinho. Do you guys think he's letting his discontent spill out onto the pitch? Pretty immature, if so. Luisao seems legitimately pissed at times (albeit partly to blame at time), whiel Luiz appears remarkably indifferent. Is it just me? |

I honestly don't see much difference from him. He's still a very good athlete who plays with passion, at times believes he should be playing midfield over centerback, and gets credit for Luisao's steady play in the middle. Luisao covers for DL a lot when he moves up into play when he shouldn't. Ricardo Rocha was physically limited, but he could at least impersonate a LB in a pinch. |
