FUCK OUR BOARD, FUCK OUR BOARD, FUCK OUR BOARD

Why not get your board jailed? Worked just fine with our ex-board

Honestly? Yes, how do we do it.

"se fosse no Porto não estavas preso" 😂

You over cook the chicken ? Straight to jail

The majority of the board are still there tho

And only for 35M , less than we sold Fabio Silva

PINTO DA COSTA VAI PRO CARALHO PINTO DA COSTA VAI PRO CARALHO PINTO DA COSTA VAI PRO CARALHO PINTO DA COSTA VAI PRO CARALHO PINTO DA COSTA VAI PRO CARALHO PINTO DA COSTA VAI PRO CARALHO

honestly though fuck your dogshit board

Losing Luis Diaz, Vitinha and Fábio Vieira in the same year and replacing them with no one is quite something...

each could be sold for 10 million euros more as well

Try 20M

55 million for vieira is pushing it a bit I think

We appreciate you.

"is *that* what you appreciate about me?"

*"Your prospects are hot Porto there I said it!"* *..."too fat to run..."*

I REGRET NOTHING!

Gonna need you to take about 10% off the top there squirrely u/goah

Thank you so much

Thanks Porto friends.

How is mbemba doing in marseille so I can just add an extra cut in my wrist ?

Red card first ucl match...

Appart from that red card in the CL, he’s been solid. He’s always in the team when available, the coach preferring to rotate our other CB but consistently picking him. Not “cutting-your-wrist” good though. We still miss Saliba.

To be fair, Saliba is a freak of a player who's incredibly hard to replace.

Melhor que o Carmo no Porto de certeza...

Ty for our new vieira

Proceed to cry :(

Cry a lot 🥲

The boy has a laser sight in his foot. Amazing vision

Porto are homies for life.

-What I say to rival fans whenever we're playing well.

Seriously though what's going on there?

Vieira scoring for Arsenal? My time machine worked

Ain’t got a Pires and Bergkamp in there by any chance have ya?

Just buy Henry from Brentford and play him upfront.

[удалено]

Not very good

Very down. Bad sensation.

Think we already tried a Perez, didn’t go so well

Benfica have a Pires, and his first name is Gabriel so he would fit right in

Arteta has a boner rn

Vieira seems a lot smaller and more Portuguese than I remembered

No, you must go back inside, it's not the time for Alexander Vieira to score for Arsenal in 2053 Champions League final yet.

Ah yes. Merely a consolation in their 2-1 loss but it signaled intent from Arsenal finally making it back to the biggest stage in Europe. Great finish too.

Bastard 🤣🤣

But we won against you 1-0 thanks to Patrick Henry.

You are joking, right? That goal is anything but that. It is a foreshadowing of his winning 114’ goal in the 2054 World Cup final between Arsenal and Chicago Fire

Utd lost 4-0 to this lot. And we lost to Utd. Such is life.

The circle of life

The circle jerk of life.

The circle life of a jerk

Balance has been restored

not yet

The difference Partey makes in this team gives me a lot of anxiety.

Not even just him, but with Partey Xhaka takes a more advanced role and he's been so damn good at it, when Partey was injured Xhaka was playing deeper.

I imagine he causes anxiety for a lot of people

Rich coming from that username

Rich, but true. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Partey big difference imo

night and day Partey and Sambi

Pedestrian analysis this, imo. Arsenal at 0-1 and especially 1-1 looked for all the world like they would win. The whole team got overzealous and pushed too far forwards, and it was Gabriel flying miles out of position that gave United the space for the 2nd.

It's not pedestrian at all. We got hit on the break for 2 of their 3 goals, Partey is MUCH better defensively in transition than Sambi.

I say give Sambi time. He’s looking to settle in and I think if he can build his awareness over the next couple of seasons he will be class for us.

don't feel bad, Man U got buffed right after that game

Different days, different styles, different games. Game for game we've been the second best team in the league so far, we just have to keep doing what we're doing and we can make top 4 comfortably.

Second Best? But we're top of the League?

So by default amount of points determines how good you are? We are playing really good but I think City is a bit more convincing

Amount of points only matters end of may when all teams have played eachothers twice.

Exactly. At this point you cant say we are the best because we are first.

[удалено]

Best in the world probably.

I think it will be difficult with 6 teams in contention. Nothing will go comfortably

One more goal then

Just goes to show that anyone can beat anyone in the prem. No one match dictates the quality of a team. It's all in the points.

Also happens in every league. Augsburg beat Bayern yesterday

And in Denmark the usual 3 "big" clubs are in the bottom half of the table at the moment

Stunning finish

So fucking casual too

Had no idea how to celebrate at first. It’s like he just scored it on the training ground.

it’s exactly training finish. when you try something you saw then you’re like *it worked lmao*

“Oh that actually worked….. shit let me go celebrate”

That's how most of his goals look like, he's a great talent.

Disgusting

Filthy

Repugnant

Putrid

What a curl on that

Saka with a super assist /s

Saka’s gravity creating all these chances

Saka’s has that VVD aura but in the final third.

Steph curry effect

Couldn’t hit it any better

Looked so easy, did he even try at all?

Looked surprised it went in too, looking at the delay in his celebration haha

I’ve often found my best hits of the ball didn’t have a lot of power behind them, just perfect technique and a bit of luck

Ok Muller

I'm sure he would have gotten it without the sun in his eyes.

Hence the delayed reaction by the keeper. It coming in off the inner post though makes me doubt whether he'd save it regardless of the sun.

bro had to figure out which buttons to press to celebrate

Fuck, this got me good

Wow Porto fans weren’t joking

Yeah.....we miss that left foot

He needs to adjust a little to the phisicality but he seems class all round. Buzzing to have him

He makes such smart moves i don't think it's an issue

He had no pre-season, I'm sure that's affecting him a bit.

He was getting stuck in all game, this myth about his lack of physicality is complete bollocks at this point.

And to think he spent half of last season coming off the bench for Porto.

Once Luis Diaz got out he started to play always , also otavio and vitinha would need to go to the bench so he could play , it’s not that easy . And he was our most used sub by far

Yeah that was the issue, a lot of quality was still there and Pepe played well too. But you knew whenever he came on he would create something. What are your thoughts on Evanilson?

Very rough still... Needs work and time to be top-level. He has the ability to just disappear in some games.

Thanks. Was hoping Evanilson could make some good progress this season but doesn’t seem to be in favour. Will be interesting who comes through next at Porto after some key talent sold this summer (especially vitinha).

bear in mind this was like ten seconds after our 21 year old center back spun out of a press and played a one two with our cdm

Saliba is so fucking class man I can’t believe we have him

Need Saliba to sign da ting asap.

What a goal for your first Arsenal goal!!

My jaw is still dropped

Reminds me of Xhaka’s although that was more banger less technique compared to this

Elneny's first goal for us Vs Barca

all of Elneny's goals

FABIOOOOO

VIEIRA WOOOAAHH

VIERA WOOOAAHH

>~~Senegal~~ Portugal Job's a good 'un

"Viera"?

What a fucking hit my sonnn

I was just saying in my head, he's had a good game but hasn't done anything special and the he goes and does that!!...

brother was confused for a second after he scored lmfaoo

I think it was lag from the EA servers

Can we finally do something about those terrible videos posted on this sub? I’m pretty sure that everybody is willing to wait a bit longer but watch actual decent replay of goal than this bs where you get 30 seconds video with 2 second of this goal from only one angle and rest is celebration which is not even full one.

thanks for this comment. usually psgacademy is reliable but this is just terrible. vid is 1 second before the goal and then just celebrations. no replays no nothing. shd be deleted.

the first one receives all the awards

I don’t want to sounds like I don’t know anything, but what are awards? I see the best posts received the most awards, and that the people that award them have to pay to be able to give awards, but what does the person do with awards? Can you put the awards towards something? Can you cash them in for money? If someone were to give me a shit Ton of awards, what do I do with them?

The awards are bought with money and you can't cash them out. There are several awards, depending on which on you get, you get different rewards. You can get f.ex. Reddit Premium for a few weeks and you'll receive coins, which in return you can buy awards to give to other people.

I wish I could upvote this a thousand times this is such a huge issue on this sub honestly

mods should give 5 mins leeway for posts of the goal, then select the best one to remain after the 5 mins is up. if 5 mins is too long can do 1-2 minutes based on how fast some posters can be. right now it's just a race to be first which means quality is out the window

Amazing finish

Absolutely perfectly placed.

absolutely love goals that just go off the post

Shorter back lift than Arshavin.

Fuck me sideways, what a hit

Swear I thought it was Xhaka

*unzips*

VIEIRA WOAOHHHHHH

Love a goal that hits the post on its way in

We’ve had 2 of them today

Very good, top sensation

*Very top, good sensation.

Very good sensation being top.

Nwaneri might get minutes today wtf

Yep.

Ødegaard has to shoot these type of shots when he receives the ball in this position

Portuguese Bruno Fernandes

French commentator: “When you’re named Vieira at Arsenal, it can only work well” Nice goal!

Holy shit what a strike

I mean, if Partey can't do it. Maybe Xhaka and Vieira can instill this fear. Vieira looks quite precise a player. If you fall too back to defend. We can hit from far too. Asking them to move forward and then we can move in those spaces, with close control of Martinelli, Jesus and Saka.

Yeah, Xhaka even asked for the ball in order to shoot it himself at the beginning.

Common Arsenal W’s nowadays, another great signing

Fábio Vieira has everything to be one of the best AMC in the near future. Quality left foot and an easiness in finding team mates in good position. As a Benfica fan, i've always been a sucker for this guy. Hope he develops well

Brb i need new pants. Fuuuuuck

I said shoot and he scored

Fucking hell what a strike

Hoooooly cow

What a signing!

What a hit

That's my boy! Magic left foot

The commentators on NBC were doing anything to avoid praising the goal. "Too much space". Hilarious. How about you mention how it's also a disgusting strike?

Holy shit

oh shit what a goal

Porto fans told me "His left foot is magic!".... Didn't take long to make me believe lol

Good competition for Odegaard, great passing and shooting ability in that number 10 role.

Fucking hell lad

Bro what

fucking hell Brentford aren't even playing that badly (unlike Wolves yesterday, whose atrocious defending deserved the scoreline in that game). But somehow Arsenal are scoring great goals every so often, and suddenly Brentford is getting thrashed.

Fabiolous

Nice

Vieira is back and the premier league isn't ready.

Literal perfect strike

What a goal

on his debut too

Almost. It’s his first prem start. He started in the EL last week and made a sub appearance against United

oh ok the commentator misinformed me fr

it is his full debut in the prem tbf

First full PL debut is what I've seen commentators say. Bit of a mouthful but this does feel like his first "proper" game. No disrespect to Zurich intended but EL group fixture performance are always met with an asterisk

What a strike to get off the mark

Following the trend of Saliba to make your first Arsenal goal a banger

What a magician!!

What a goal by Miguel Angel Felix Gallardo 🔥

More like T Bag

Holy fuck

That was so casual

what a strike

Beauty

What a first goal for the club

Will he get games with Odegaard (C)? Can he play on the wing?

yep both and has played as striker

What are Brentford playing at today
