Porto (A) - CL | Post-Match Thread

[AliBobbyJ]

I couldn't agree more; I love Oporto! Arguably the most underrated city I've ever been to (less well known to Yanks than to Brits, I'd wager). I was going to post this earlier (before my dog interrupted me) -- is there a more likeable city in Europe with a less likeable club?

On second thoughts, Manchester.

How about Paris?
(For the most likeable city and club, both together, maybe Valencia.)

I can’t really hate PSG — I don’t like them either — and I don’t love Paris — or, rather, Parisians.

Meant to say what a bunch of diving fannies Porto are. Pathetic.

The Spurs of Iberia , both managed by R Sole Portu geezers

Won the group, rest in final game. Job done

If Benfica have the Eagle then Porto must have the

How to ruin the beautiful game , they were anti football at its best

Top the group, on we go

And yet the BT commentators praised them through out?

Decent performance but still lacking threat up front. People give Mendy shit but at least he offers something. Zinchenko gets the ball in space, looks up, feints to play the forward pass and then nonchalantly passes it backwards.

What Zinchenko does worked when Dave played in front of him. Now he is just pointless

We pump a lot of high balls in the hope that something will happen but we definitely need a big centre forward who can head it like Dzeko.
In our 2 recent European games we had 43 attempts on goal and scored one.
It's frustrating that Pep has sorted out the defence and now the attack isn't working well.

How about Delap?

Job done but typical CL Officiating. Non penalty (we really need to appeal much louder and better) and how they only had 1 booking is laughable. Pathetic officiating as per usual, seems their manager moaning got to him.
But 1/2 a team out and job done, but going forward we still look poor and a new world class striker needed

Why do we need to appeal if they are using VAR. Does VAR only look at the incidents where someone appeals?
