Just like Arouca...

Exactly, one cannot draw parallels.

I CAN!

Benfica -- Arouca 2-0

Equals

Juventus -- Livorno 2-0

Therefore, because: x=y and considering variables p/l and m over c to the power of n...

Juventus--Benfica will be very very close. Extra time and penalties may be required at Juventus stadium. Dun dun dun dun... (that's supposed to be dramatic music)

Exactly, one cannot draw parallels.

I didn't compare Juve with Arouca, all I said was, what I saw of Benfica's style of play, regardless of their opponent, I know our players' weaknesses so when I said "we'd be in trouble against them", I based that on my knowledge of our strength and style against the same kind of opponents, not Arouca's strength.
But if some ppl want to fool around and ignore the facts well then be it.
I'm not here to prove anything. Hope we go against them exactly the way we did against Lyon and win.

 

[Klovn]

Also, when teams play us it doesn't matter too much what they did against other teams. They don't face teams with our set up and approach too often.

I know, I'm not a retard. I was just making it clear for PostIronic that it can go both ways.

I was just thinking out loud.

why they put sassualo games on monday before 2nd leg game on thursday?

italian federation is idiot or something like that?

 

[petersmit]

Because the first leg is on the Thursday (in Portugal) before that...

Rather Monday than the Sunday night because the players have to travel back from Lisbon, which takes more time/energy. In the second leg it's only a return from Emilia-Romagna.

to tell the truth better if federation can cancel the sassuolo game. i check the benfica they will not play between european cup games in domestic league....

do we have any missed player for first leg ?

 

[petersmit]

they can't just cancel a match...

 

[JuveJay]

Especially with a tournament this summer, it's almost impossible to reschedule now.

[AFL_ITALIA]

The Benfica players get so much more rest time, I don't like this. We better secure the Scudetto quickly (hopefully) because I don't see how we can keep this up.

 

[MikeM]

If we win our next 2 matches, we can bench the whole team for Sassuolo.

 

[AFL_ITALIA]

That's doable in my opinion.

:xfinger:

 

[JuveFenerbahce]

wat

i mean delay the sasuolo game.

 

[Silva_Grohl]

They're not going to attack us like that, because we are 100X the squad Arouca is. Arouca is weaker than any side in Serie A by a country mile. The weak sides in Portugal are Serie B strength... at best.

Yes we will mate, at least at the Luz.

 

[Post Ironic]

Yes we will mate, at least at the Luz.

So, Benfica is going to treat Juve as though they are Arouca is what you're saying? That makes a lot of sense.

I'm sure you'll play aggressively, but attacking Juve in the way you would a side like Arouca is suicide, regardless of whether you are home or not. And your manager is good enough to know that tactics change depending on opponent strength and style of play.

We don't know how to play in another way at home, we will play a offensive game, It could be Juventus, or Milan, Inter, Catania, or whatever. It suprises-me that you think that, because you seem to see all the games Benfica did, if you didn't understand yet, we're not afraid of Juventus, and almost al Benfica fans wanted to play Juventus, we're not worst than Juventus, only you think that because you saw Benfica B games and think that you will play against the same team that played against AZ. lol
