André Martins was from Sporting and played under Marco but the new coach never used him so he signed for free with olympiakos. Decent but not good enough and has a contract with Oly. Manuel da Costa will play for Morocco in Can 2017 and is a central defender. Figueiras is good but they wouldn't sell cheap he can play both rb or lb.
Mike's done one.

Im thinking of sacking Dutch from the MDT's I may be looking at having a Portugese angle on things...

Seconded.
I know I keep on about this with others, but we play 3-5-2 (ish), we don't want the system ****ing around again, so why do we need a RB; wouldn't a RWB be a better call? I know it would be brill if a player could do both, but experience really doesn't stack that one up. Neither Robbo or Elmo do it (at this level). Money is tight, get a RWB to replace Elmo being absent.
Of course, which is why I pointed out, and agreed with, what GLP said about not ****ing about with formation again.
To play 4 at the back, if you buy a RB, who is your LB?
okay, The Lone Ranger is LB, Silva is the manager, so who's the striker ....
Exactly. We, all three of us (at least) don't want the formation screwing with, unles LB, RB and striker are bought.
I think most of us would like to see a proper LB come to the club and Robertson be used further forward, a la Bale...
Shocked at you saying that. There is one big attribute that a RWB needs, whereas a RB can get away without - pace and a bloody good engine.
With what you know now, would you buy either Elmo or Robbo to be specialist FBs, or do you think they are WBs or wingers who are poor defensively ?

He never played 352 in Sporting but a good cooker uses the ingredients he has so he migh use it now. Lets wait and see.
Will he be able to get the centre midfielders to get past the half way and within 5 yards of the forwards ?
He normally plays 4-4-2 according to the Portuguese footballer reporter on't radio, but with only 2-3 signings he's unlikely to have that option.
