FC Porto

[Red Devil]

better? who knows..............

Bigger? without a doubt.

Their track record in europe proves that they belong in that elite group, whatever league they are in.

Fair reply Eddy

I have too say I wouldnt be mixing it with Porto if I was a City fan but thats just me . City fans seem all of a sudden that there a big club Im afraid that this could become the case if they have sustained success over the next 15 years . But until then I think they should show more respect to the teams around Europe with european pedigree otherwise people will start to really dislike them.

Oh, a porto thread.

I Dislike porto, because of thee 2003 UEFA Cup final

 

[The Joker]

You still think you are the better club ? (btw You only get into the CL because you league is dire.)

wtf you just didnt understand that the fact of having great players doesnt mean that you have a great TEAM! you have a lot of examples in history of football of that...if we are better club than your?: YES, titles tells everything...if we have better team now: i just dont know, in end of the season we will see, but im not beeing arrogant like you, just because you have 3 top players you have better team LOL ahah. Play less FM please

Portugal league is not so bad. Porto winning he Champions league 5 years ago says it all.
And only few months ago they gave headaches to then reigning European Champions, Manchester United.

I think a certain City fan is getting far to excited he believes his club is a big club and better then others before they have even won a thing.

So far he has slagged off Porto , Celtic and Manchester United

With a combined trophy haul of over 100 trophys to citys massive haul of under 10

Amazing!!!

I'm really impressed of Porto deals in the last 4-5 years, hey always do great and this summer is no different. They sign players for cheap and then sell them for a proper price, which means that they have excellent scouts and great managers.

This is the way how a club from this calibre should be run

 

[Snyde]

Excellent post Guard! I feel like the old you is back!!

So true, it's one of the main reasons why they've dominated their league. Same goes for Lyon. Excellent club structures at all levels.

 

[The Joker]

c'mon Porto! it would be very difficult but i believe in a good result. 1-0 is enough

 

[Hamzah]

i think you can win with 2 goals but you'd have to be on top form.

 

[beef-supreme]

Come on Porto!! Falcao's a lethal player, nothing spectacular but hugely efficient. Imo Hulk is overrated but he does have explosive power which can be a huge threat. I hope Porto can make it quite far this year, so long as they don't do this at the cost of Barca's progression.

 

[Plip]

Good game from Porto, even though at times they played rather dirty.

 

[Chucka]

Hulk is good but he really lacks intelligence imo, many times he would try a needless flick instead of a pass that could of been effective.
