Can see Benfica get little love from their rivals here
Sporting and Porto fans are really pained at the fact that Benfica won the league.Felix has been uninvolved so far. Don't think he's even had up to 10 touches.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

Maybe he was on and off, seeing as I'm not the only one making that assumption?He isn't playing out wide though
Player on the team that has the free-kick.
Bruno is playing well actually. Ronaldo is barely pressing and Neves and William don’t get out of second gear so it’s Bruno and Bernardo that are doing a lot of important work and then allowing us to counter.
That defense scares the shit out of me btw. Has to be our worst CB partnership in over 20 years and the fullbacks aren’t much help. Couple that with a slow midfield and we’ve got problems.

Pretty amazing that a Liverpool bench warmer, Shaqiri, is bossing this game.
He's playing on the right side of a flat 3 midfield. Has to start deep and has very little passing options besides the overlapping Semedo who is often late and players in the box. Tactically very tough for a player that shines in the middle with the goal in sight.He isn't playing out wide though
Bruno was playing a right-central, mostly deep position. I believe people saying he's playing out of position are saying he should be deployed as a number 10.
Don't think there's much more to it.

That's quite a significant rule change. Still, what constitutes and attacker? A midfielder?
He’s always very good for Switzerland. Tore us apart in the two qualifying games for the World Cup too
Neves and William just don't work together, way too immobile... Full backs are having a mare here, cb's are not too bad in my opinion. Felix seems so lightweight it's kinda funny
I keep seeing him in the RM position every time I tune into the game. I’m in and out because I am at work.He isn't playing out wide though
Christ, why is Sanc...Félix still playing?

Works pretty hard for a midgut.
Pepe is the best CB in portuguese NT history.
It's a flat 4-3-3 when you're not in possession and he doesn't seem to have to cover too much ground running back. When you have the ball he pushes up to the same line as bernardo-cris-felix with freedom to roam and swap positions, though he's mostly kept to that center-right channel. It's basically how players of his ilk tend to play nowadays
If we're going in for a Benfica forward, then it should be Seferovic,.
I'd sub Felix and put jota on now
A member of the attacking team.
Pen!
This should get interesting.
Dunno were the Swiss are on about, that's never a penalty
The city cnut shouldve squared it to felix
Wtf? First clearly not a penalty?
Second clearly a penalty...
Swiss player trips over his own feet ffs

Wow. Now this would be a real VAR biggie.
So dumb, just let the ref in the stands decide rather than have the match ref have to go all the way over.
Should be a pen to the Swiss.

Eeeeeh. Pen for swiss but i dislike this kind of penalties. Entirely accidental contact
What the?
What the feck?
The Portuguese defender trips him.
what?! What can that possibly be for!?What a shit pen
This would be controversial. Why hadn't the VAR told him about it before the ball went the whole length of the pitch.
Bad decision. Anti VAR brigade will come out with Brexit-esque logic on this no doubt.
Stonewaller, he trips him.
That's never a fecking pen
Cheap pen
Wow
Ridiculous. After the Swiss pen will they VAR the Portugal one? What a dogs dinner.
Hahaha
