The Spurs Of London - SL Benfica

[ArcspacE]

Sadly, this is our last game of any substantial meaning this season (March 20th, mind you), epitomised by series of preposterous, poisonous decisions which ultimately led to a complete implosion from top to bottom

I sincerely hope we can go out and if nothing else, show a bit of fight and desire. Fuck the player meetings, double agents, and back-stabbers - go out and play for the shirt, you over-paid mercenary wankers, and show some respect to the club and fans!

Stranger things have happened

4-4-facking-2 from the onset - Ade and Soldado in front of Eriksen, Townsend, Paulinho and Sandro



COYS

If we won 2-0 in 90 minutes, would it go to extra time?
I know it's not the case in the CL but I have a feeling it's different in the EL.
If that is the case then 2-0 in our favour doesn't seem such a mountain to climb.if we did manage that then they would be as nervous as hell in extra time..

No - we'd lose on the away goals rule

No - we'd lose on the away goals rule

I know that in the past that away goals don't count until after extra time.. Has this changed or does it not count in the latter stages?

As far as I know - away goals count in 90 mins

I think that's the league cup

 

[Furball man]

Can't see beyond us scraping a 9-2 victory

Atouba with 5

i agree lets go for it!!! id rather go out with a bang rather than a Wimper

 

[Pyro_era]

Sending off for a Benfica player, they park the bus. We score 3 in the final 10 minutes. Win 4-3 on Aggregate

Timmy Tim to hurl his gilet in Jesus's face.

The gilet will be covered in ninja stars and excrement

 

[East Mid Yid]

I hope we manage to put up some sort of display for all the fans going out there. Unlikely to win the tie but winning the match would be good

Think away goals count in both normal and extra time. Like last season against Inter when Ade scored in extra time they needed to score 2, scored 1 and went out.

 

[WHITE&BLUE]

To win this game is simple.

Erik "help my back is broken or everything in life is a lie" Lamela and Henry "I put balls in the back of nets" Kane must start.

 

[El flaco]

We'll win 3-2 to get our usual fisting

 

[ChrisOTDH]

I predicted we'd lose 4-1 to Inter last year. This time I predict we win 3-1 in normal time, and lose 4-3 after extra time. Going out 7-4

 

[Doom Funk]

We usually do better away from home so I am gonna go for a 4 0 win for Benfica and Tim Sherwood to end up in his underpants at the final whistle having thrown all his training wear at their manager in a fit of rage

 

[Mr S Pippo]

This game will be strange for Benfica, do they twist or stick? We have nothing to lose so all out attack. . We need to get that all important early goal and then let's see what happens. We need to score 3 (they will score) We will then knock em out on Pens.
