better? who knows..............

Bigger? without a doubt.

Their track record in europe proves that they belong in that elite group, whatever league they are in.

Fair reply Eddy

I have too say I wouldnt be mixing it with Porto if I was a City fan but thats just me . City fans seem all of a sudden that there a big club Im afraid that this could become the case if they have sustained success over the next 15 years . But until then I think they should show more respect to the teams around Europe with european pedigree otherwise people will start to really dislike them.

Oh, a porto thread.

I Dislike porto, because of thee 2003 UEFA Cup final

Portugal league is not so bad. Porto winning he Champions league 5 years ago says it all.
And only few months ago they gave headaches to then reigning European Champions, Manchester United.

I think a certain City fan is getting far to excited he believes his club is a big club and better then others before they have even won a thing.

So far he has slagged off Porto , Celtic and Manchester United

With a combined trophy haul of over 100 trophys to citys massive haul of under 10

Behind Porto (1 CL, 1 Cup of Champions, 1 UEFA Cup, 1 Supercup, 2 Intercontinental Cup), also have Benfica (2 Cup of Champions, 5 finals Cup of Champions, 1 final UEFA Cup), Sporting (1 Cup Winners Cup, 1 final UEFA Cup) and SC Braga (1 Intertoto Cup) are also winners of european cups.

Amazing!!!

I'm really impressed of Porto deals in the last 4-5 years, hey always do great and this summer is no different. They sign players for cheap and then sell them for a proper price, which means that they have excellent scouts and great managers.

This is the way how a club from this calibre should be run

Excellent post Guard! I feel like the old you is back!!

So true, it's one of the main reasons why they've dominated their league. Same goes for Lyon. Excellent club structures at all levels.

c'mon Porto! it would be very difficult but i believe in a good result. 1-0 is enough

i think you can win with 2 goals but you'd have to be on top form.

Come on Porto!! Falcao's a lethal player, nothing spectacular but hugely efficient. Imo Hulk is overrated but he does have explosive power which can be a huge threat. I hope Porto can make it quite far this year, so long as they don't do this at the cost of Barca's progression.

Good game from Porto, even though at times they played rather dirty.

Hulk is good but he really lacks intelligence imo, many times he would try a needless flick instead of a pass that could of been effective.
