Mourinho Before the Benfica Game on NUFC, Eddie Howe & Toon Fans

If you haven't seen Jose Mourinho's press conference it's definitely worth a look.

We all know his total respect and love for Sir Bobby Robson from his time as SBR's trusted assistant, but in his press conference yesterday Jose also expressed his admiration for what Eddie Howe has achieved and his affection for the club and fans.

For all his good words, and the respect he'll get from us fans, we still want to inflict a third CL defeat on his Benfica team in tonight's match at SJP.

A win for the Toon will put us well on our way to qualifying for the next CL stage while a defeat for Benfica will almost certainly consign them to being eliminated.

The stage is set for another great CL night and eardrum busting noise and passion under the lights at SJP. We haven't beaten Benfica in our previous three games...

But I'm going for a 3-1 win - what are you predicting?

Comments welcome.
