Jorge Jesus on the Primeira Liga: “Porto are much stronger than last year” | OneFootball

Jorge Jesus was present at the first edition of the Portugal Football Globes and, in statements to journalists, assessed who he sees as the favorite in the Primeira Liga.

“It’s still early, but I think FC Porto is much stronger than last year, Benfica has added individual value compared to what it was last year, with many new players now playing. Sporting has kept the same team, but lost its key player, Viktor Gyokeres, who left for Arsenal, and as always, it will be contested among the three. But this year, FC Porto is stronger than last year, I have no doubt about it,” said Jorge Jesus.

The coach also commented on José Mourinho and the recent Clássico between FC Porto and Benfica.

“They are always different games, but in my opinion, it was a very tactically closed match, with a lot of tactical creativity that overshadowed individual creativity and led to the goalless draw. I, who see football in a different way, really enjoyed the game,” he stated, on the sidelines of the ceremony.
