Now that I've been thinking, I think SC is resting him and dont want to take risks on Mehdi now that both EN and Galeno are gone due injury, at least not for such games as tonight which should on paper be an easy game. In the same time SC needs to keep the bench (Tony Martinez and D Loader) warm and give the some match minutes.
"Pepê and Taremi on the bench? I don't choose by name or by the minutes they have"
Statements by Sérgio Conceição, coach of FC Porto, after the 3-1 triumph in Chaves, on the 23rd round of the Bwin League.
Pepê and Taremi on the bench: "I've been making moves for a few weeks now. I'm going to make an analogy with the parties here in Trás dos Montes. Here they play a lot of bass drums, and it's necessary to play bass drums. In that sense, it was the initial 11 that got me it gave more guarantees so that within that party that wasn't at the opera, the players gave me the guarantee of making a successful, competent game, where we had to work a lot, and then obviously with the individual quality to reach such an artistic note. I was very pleased with the two players who played up front, because they worked a lot, both scored a goal, I'm very happy. I always choose according to the work week. Pepê didn't train with a problem with his foot. I have to see the players who give me more guarantees because of training, not because of their name or the minutes they have. Players who stay on the bench have to add something and that's what happened. I chose it based on what I thought the game's difficulties would be and where we could We love and should create difficulties for Chaves. So it was, I'm very happy with the behavior of the players in this regard."
