Porto fail to beat Aston Villa, Ederson useless
Guerra slams players for dropped points
I was hoping the struggle could be over for FC Porto after a good win past Thursday, but it's not. Failed to beat a clearly lower rated Aston Villa side at home tonight, 1-1 was the score. Conceded our opponent's only shot on target unfortunately. Ederson is being useless. On the other hand, we could only score 1 out of 7. . . So another 2 points dropped and already 10 points behind 1st place. Disappointing stuff. There's always next match. And next season. . .

Transfer ban after two days in charge
This will be my first game in charge since my recent return to Top 100. I have made a few alterations to the squad, too many in fact and am beginning a transfer ban as a result. I’ll put my hand up and admit I took my eye off the ball, onwards and upwards . #forzaatalanta ☘️

Málaga looking to offload unwanted players
We are still looking to move out our last none Spanish based or Spanish nationality players in our first team, we have 5/6 players including Lang, all can leave for Spanish players in return. Would like to have all sold by end of the day. PM or put in an offer, I could give all 5/6 players for 1 or 2 of yours also, all positions considered but a CB or CM of higher rating would be nice.

Crystal Palace draw with Köln in Bilboa's first game
