They way Porto plays is very impressive.
:agree:

Benfica too.

The movement of both teams off the ball and the pace they move the ball is very good.

Makes it so much easier for individual players to look good when a team has a good shape and a plan to create space.

Man I would take Sørensen as striker as long as we kick Amauri and Iaquinta out :p
Melo your avatar has made it impossible for me to listen to music and view this forum, that guys pelvic thrusts just seem to sync up with whatever tune I'm listening to, deeply disturbing

That's kinda contradicting since the same players create that space and such off the ball movement.

Haven't seen Benfica play lately but Porto is really :tup:

Sure, but having the ability to move well off the ball is very different to having the technical ability to take advantage of the space (see Iaquinta).

In the same way you can have a player with rubbish movement, but great technical ability (Ronaldinho).

Porto and Benfica have a good balance.

Rossi's Agent : We've already spoken to Juventus about a move.

Rossi : I'm happy at Villareal. Juventus? I've heard of their interest and in the Summer anything can happen.

Despite us being linked with Gilardino I don't think he will actually arrive. IMO we will likely see Giuseppe Rossi here, he is young and italian and supposedly that's what this whole project is based around. I really think we'll see this line up next year:

Buffon
Beck Bonucci Chiellini DC
Krasic Masherano Aqua Bastos
Rossi
Matri

I think Rossi, Bastos and Mascherano are the champions Marrota is referring to. It's not a bad lineup, obviously an upgrade, and it just might be enough to salvage third next year, given the right coach albeit
