Villas-Boas mocks Sporting: “We’ll keep it comfy for picky guests” | OneFootball

Sporting’s trip to Estádio do Dragão on February 9 led the Lisbon club to issue harsh criticism of FC Porto and to file a complaint against the blue and whites for incidents that occurred during and after the derby of the 21st round of the League.

This Saturday, André Villas-Boas highlighted, in the editorial of the magazine Dragões, the renovation plan for Estádio do Dragão, “scheduled for completion in August,” and took the opportunity to throw some barbs at the management of their Lisbon rivals.

“While we fight on and off the pitch, we continue to build the club’s future with concrete works and strategic vision. The renovation plan for Estádio do Dragão is underway, with completion scheduled for August. A plan that includes significant improvements in terms of comfort and services provided to members and fans, as well as better climate control for the most demanding visitors, with an important upgrade in interior design, modernizing the space without losing our identity and without offending the sensibilities of the more sensitive,” fired Villas-Boas, in an allusion to the alleged episode of the air conditioning being on full blast in the Lions’ locker room and to newspaper covers and alleged writings on its walls.

“The Dragão is our home. And our home must reflect who we are: demanding, modern, ambitious but true to ourselves. That’s why today I feel an enormous pride in being a Porto supporter. In knowing who we are and where we are going. In knowing what we represent and in valuing what we have. And in being fully aware that, here, every move, every game, every victory, every title is much more than sport. It is identity. It is resistance. It is culture. It is history. It is FC Porto,” AVB concluded.
