Just need some complete penis to wheel out the Damioa joke once more...you know...just in case you haven't heard it for the umfeckinteenth time this window, and every window since the dawn of time.

Apologies if a bit harsh.
Have you ever heard about the one where Ghaly is on form ;)

Is that right that Adel Taarabt was keeping out of the starting X1 at Benfica?

Neither of them have exactly been nailed on in the Benfica side. Samaris, Florentine and Gabriel have been used as part of the two in a 4-2-3-1 as well as Taarabt and Gedson. It seems they rotate quite a bit, no ever-presents in the squad (Though some are a good bit closer than others).

Wait... are you saying Gedson is the real blue and yellow?


Think this is a good signing that we could need, but shouldn't lose touch with reality because of it.

He has good close control, a fair shot and some pace on him. Also a reasonably good tackle, thiugh less of a defensive brain. Actually see him a bit in the Dembele mould. He does, however, have weaknesses. Particularly his passing can be safe and unispired, seemingly lacking vision. Also, the skills he has used in portugal and for portugal (A and u21) arent easily transferable to a league with much stronger teams. Particularly the PL back 6 will almost never defend as poorly, passively or rashly as the opponents he is used to. Would not be surprised if he didnt score his first 20 starts.
If used to his strengths, as a box-to-box ball transporter with flashes of inspiration and the odd goal, I think he could be great for us. If used in a front 3-4, or as a distributer in a midfield pairing, I worry he might need to acquire some new skills (not impossible, as he is young).

Not sure if this ever got posted but it popped up on my YouTube as a suggested vid.



RabonaTV do pretty good stuff and the main guy, Adrian, is a Benfica fan. He talks in pretty glowing terms and seems genuinely sad that Gedson has left his club.

Worth a watch.

Cheers for the post but this has been posted on here several pages back. Was a good watch until he suggested that Wanyama and Dier were good CM's.

Finally a video with actually good beats, none of that fucking techno electronic shit
If it's called "beats" then chances are it's still shite. One day someone will use Pink Floyd and I'll be able to watch the whole thing without muting it.

TBF, people use royalty-free or non-copyrighted music so they don't get their YouTube account striked for copyright infringement. All these terrible beats are probably here to remain
