#TheBest #Benfica striker ever Jose Aguas to me the best #Benfica player ever a player more like #CristianoRonaldo all around with a magnificent headed average over a goal a game for #Benfica finished at #AustriaWien the forgotten player at #Benfica

 

Jose Aguas the best Benfica player ever, the forgotten one but the only one the raise two championship trophies, Eusebio didn't play in the first, in the second championship run only a few games at the end . After Guttman and Jose Aguas left the team, they never won again  

To me the best Benfica player ever, he was more all around then Eusebio because is head shot the only Benfica captain the raise two European Cup winners today Champions League.  

he scored over 30 goals a season when they use to play half of today's games 

in the European Cup he still got Benfica record with 11 goals in the first Benfica Championship run, scored in the winning 3-2 vs Barcelona, i saw him scored a bycicle kick before Pele, at the  Antas Porto stadium the got a standing ovation in a 1-0 win.
