QUOTE (Portugal @ Jan 28 2007, 02:45 AM) I can see Benfica have increased their number of fans (specially in Greece with Katsouranis - fckin' great player, and Karagounis). 60% of people in Portugal are not enough? (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) What about the Greek league? Who's on top? PAO or Olympiakos? Well actually Nelson was the one that did the job. Then they kicked Loverpool out of the CL and then came Rui Costa... I was never a Katsouranis fan and didn't believe he was that good... I think he was voted in the best XI or something by some Portuguese mag!? In Hellas, Rivaldo's Olympiacos is first by some 5 points I think... PAO and AEK come after but I don't remember who's second and third! (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Oh by the way, I heard Santos wants some more of AEK's players... Cirillo (CB) and Sorrentino (GK) I think. He will need the former if Luisao leaves and the latter is a very good keeper and he will probably return to Italy, maybe at Genoa (who are building a good squad by the way!!). What about Karagounis, will he keep him at Benfica for the next season!??

What about Karagounis, will he keep him at Benfica for the next season!?? Rui is class. Today he made the 2 assists for the goals. Yes. He is on the best 11 of the 'bwinLiga' (how the Portuguese League it's called). Lucho Gonzalez (Porto), Moutinho (Sporting Lisbon) and him were elected as the best midfielders on the first half of the season. It wasn't 1 mag. It was almost every single paper who chose him. He is very good. Dunno anything about those players. I heard something... but Benfica transfer this window was Derlei (ex-Porto, from Mourinho era) - brazillian foward. A good add. Karagounis? I think he's doing a good job. He is like a backup for Benfica's midfielder. A great backup. You know, those players who get in to hold the ball when the team is winning. Dunno if he's staying for next season. A question, it's OlympiaKos or OlympiaCos? Rivaldo still plays some good football?

Aaah….So it’s not just Milan with the bad results. :rollseyes:
Barca and Real are playing like sh!t, Chelsea are clinging by their teeth for a 1-0 win over second from bottom Charlton.
And Lyon can’t seem to win a single game

Lyon did it guys they won a match by ... 1-0 (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I watched Bordeaux-Marseille (1-0) and I realized how pitiful is Ribery and Cissé, I really dont know what those guy is doing the French NT?! (Well, may be cause there is no others (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) ) Anyway, it was a poor game and the pitch didn't help at all, Marseille had some great moments but they didn't score, and Ramé (Bordeaux GK) was great! Actually I watched the game for young Nasri, a couple friends of mine told me that he was great, so I watched and I think for a 19 yo player he's really great, he hasn't the physical presence of Yoann but he has much more technique (with the ball) and is very clever. He had a great fisrt half then vanished in the second, but he definitely has a great future (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

QUOTE (Locke Lamora @ Feb 18 2007, 09:27 PM) Go check on Wikipedia. They have won over 100 titles. Most of them purely Scottish ones, but facts are facts. Oh... Well, ok. Respect. But for me and for the great majority of the people the world's most successful club is Real Madrid as much as people hate them. 9 CL > *. (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) In here Benfica has a lot of titles too... but portuguese titles, not internationally.

QUOTE (Portugal @ Feb 27 2007, 11:34 PM) Yup. Nuno Assis will be out until the end of the season and Rui is injuried at the moment, so Kara will be there for the League and UEFA Cup matches. He made a nice assist yesterday btw. His style is worse than Rino's but I guess he does he job fine... QUOTE (Tennie @ Feb 27 2007, 11:39 PM) He played well in last week's UEFA Cup game against Bucharest too. So you like Benfica too??

Whoa. Sporting beat Porto? Yay! And Nani's got great potential. Glad he was called up for this round of Euro qualifiers.

Hee. Now that will be a fun one. (Forca Benfica!) Wish I could actually SEE the games rather than relying on the text play by plays!

*grin* No, I don't have RTP -- that's a satellite station here and I have cable. Sadly, watching a stream isn't an option either, as I'm on an antiquated dialup connection. For the majority of Portuguese games (ie, not UEFA Cup or Champions League which I DO get), I follow via Mais Futebol or other Portuguese websites.

1-1 in today's Portuguese Classico (Benfica v. Porto). Porto remains on top by 1 point, followed by Benfica.
Rui Costa played the second half. His first time on the pitch in a good long while.

QUOTE (Portugal @ Apr 1 2007, 09:50 PM) Yep. Porto score on a fk, Pepe's header on the 1st half. (Benfica missed Luisao - injuried) Benfica scored on the 2nd half, Lucho's own goal. I think a draw was a fair result. Porto dominated on the FH, Benfica on the SH. We're going to have championship until the end. 7 matches to play. I think we have the harder run in though to be honest. Having to play both Braga and Sporting. They're both home ties, but still possible banana-skins on the way to the title. If we get 6 points from those, It'll be ours (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

The Eredivisie is really something this season. All top 3 have the same ammount of points with 1 game left to play, but AZ have a much superior goal difference. I would really like to see Ajax win it.
Btw, Sneijder was amazing in their last game

(IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Even with that they got a draw. Sporting was better IMO.) 1. FCPorto 62p 2. Sporting 59 3. Benfica 58 With 3 matches to play... and it will end like this. Porto champ, Sporting straight do the CL, Benfica to the CL 3rd pre. I hope Benfica win it with some sort of miracle, 4 points adrift with 9 points up for grabs, still mathematically possible, but I can't see it happening

QUOTE (mishale @ Apr 30 2007, 02:40 PM) Me too. It's a cruel system. A championship game would be much more fair A championship game meaning, the top 3 or 4 teams going into a play off sort of thing right? I personally don't agree with that. If a team has been amazing for the entire season and is in first and the ones behind him are far off by more then 10 points then I can't see how it could be more fair. If you are referring to the fact of deciding a league on goal difference when points are level then I would totally agree with you

QUOTE (mishale @ Apr 30 2007, 06:06 PM) No. If two teams end the league with the same amount of points then they should decide who wins the title in a game between them and not on goal difference Oh then certainly that would be a much better idea then the goal difference thing. I think it's still like that in Serie A (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
