Mantorras Magic

Video proof that Pedro and coach Luis Oliveira Goncalves need to kiss and make up before this summer. We NEED this guy playing for the Palancas. I hope he gets a chance on Wednesday for Benfica against Barcelona!

Of course you need Mantorras. Just cheked your video piece from Benfica vs Rio Ave. He decided another match recently, but I forgot against who. You need Mantorras and all the strikers you can find.

Mantorras is famous for scoring when there’s little time before finishing time. Some call him the anti-clock, because he looks at it and decides to score… :-)

In my opinion he doesn’t play so often for Benfica because he’s seen as a bit clumsy and the team hasn’t got a lot of fire power so they rahter put more versatile players. Like Simao or Geovanni – wingers and/or strikers. When they do use a striker it’s usually Nuno Gomes – but although he might score, the team is less effective when attacking.

Anyway, it’s just my guess…

He should go to a smaller club if thats the only way he can play more games. He is wasting his abilities at the bench.
