its Gaitan we are talking about, not Ribery. and besides, you are kinda overrating all your players in your posts...
He is a very irregular player, but he can decide a game when he plays at his best...

I'm not overrating nobody, what i'm saying is that Benfica have a worst squad than juventus, but good enough to fight without play a defensive style, and yes, if Gaitan was a Full time magician he would play in England or Germany, no doubts about it, two years ago he was very close to sign with Manchester United.

Benfica will play with Fesja and not Amorim, I guess.

It looks like there are 4 possible lineups, depending of Tevez and Vidal.

1) If both Vidal and Tevez will be ready:
Buffon; Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini; Lichtsteiner, Vidal, Pirlo, Pogba, Asamoah; Tevez, Llorente.

2) If Vidal won't make it:
Buffon; Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini; Lichtsteiner, Pogba, Pirlo, Marchisio, Asamoah; Tevez, Llorente.

3) If Tevez won't make it:
Buffon; Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini; Lichtsteiner, Vidal, Pirlo, Pogba, Asamoah; Marchisio; Llorente.

4) If Tevez and Vidal won't make it:
Buffon; Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini; Lichtsteiner, Pogba, Pirlo, Marchisio, Asamoah; Giovinco, Llorente.


But Tevez will almost certainly play so it's a duel between Vidal and Marchisio.

If we do elect to play a 3-5-1-1, we should push Pogba up. Marchisio hasn't been much of an attacking threat since 2011 and Pogba has a fantastic shot on him. I'd rather he was put into a more advanced position.
