Mister_Master

my choices:

 

Frank Rijkaard

Thomas Tuchel

Vitor Periera 

Frank retired, and Vitor Pereira signed with Olympiakos 2 weeks ago.

Míchel.

Schuster

Bilic

Laudrup

Quintero is out of Villa's range. On loan, maybe (and thats a big maybe). If you want someone that plays at the same places that Quintero does, you have Rafa (21) from Braga, Miguel Rosa (25) from Belenenses, André André (25) from Guimaraes, Bernardo Silva (21) on loan from Benfica to Monaco, Andre Martins (24) from Sporting.

As for the Cardozo wage question, i don't know but it should not be higher than N'Zogbia's i guess.

Oscar Cardozo is unhappy at Trabzonspor. He would be a terrific signing, and cheap.

Sergio Romero, Guilavogui and Eliseu may sign in the next 48hours with Benfica.

Patricio, A. Almeida, Hugo Almeida, Postiga, Coentrao are out due to injury.

Beto
Pereira - Pepe - Alves - Veloso
William
Amorim - Moutinho

Nani - Eder - Ronaldo

Can someone tell me what were the news that came out about this, over the last few weeks? Any rumoured names or something like that?

Awful... I don't even... It is so hard to lose this way.

Marco Silva, former Estoril manager (3 years ago Estoril, was in the 2nd division, last year they got the 4th place just like this year with a really low budget) is free, but apparently he is close to sign with Sporting CP.

Vitor Pereira, former Porto manager, said that he would like to sign with a premier league team.

The two names would be my bets.

He would celebrate 72 years in 20 days. Also in 20 days marks the 10 year "anniversary" from Feher's death.

The curse of the minute 92. Porto scored their winning goal against Benfica at the 92'. Chelsea scored at the 92'. And the goals at the Europa League final were scored by Torres (#9) and Ivanovic (#2)...

Having watched the end of the other semi-final and seeing Benfica go through the traditional Portuguese performance of time wasting, diving and general cheatery, I hope Chelsea have got another 8-0 left in them. Portuguese football is vile.

Lol. Watch the 1st match, from last week and see Fener doing the same thing, watch the game until the 3-1 and you will see the same thing. Liking it or not is a way to play and EVERY TEAM does this. I want to see if Villa is not safe from relegation until the match against Wigan and they do this what you will say? That they don't deserve to be in the Premier League? This is the first european final for Benfica since 1989, they lost the first match, and now 1 goal from Fener would knock them out... 

No idea. Where's Mister_Master when you need him?

Here. Only saw one game, against Dinamo Kyiv, and he is ok. He has been playing mostly on the reserve team and scored a goal. He is good with is feet for someone that tall and is a good header too. He may be the substitute of Rolando that is on his way out of Porto.

Puyol is 2 months out. Is a really bad season for him already.

João Moutinho is the next in line to sign with Zenit.

Official: Witsel 40M, Hulk 40M.

FC Porto signed Hulk, Falcao, and Lisandro Lopez for €11.73m euros and sold them for €114m. (stolen from twitter)

Porto and Benfica are examples of what having a great scouting system in place can do.. they are also very good in the south america market.

Hulk was around 20M;

Falcao 4M;

Lisandro - 3M.

Witsel also signed, 40M€. Hulk 60M.
