Benfica's coach, Marco Silva, responded to questions about whether the red-and-white team is the best in Portugal, adopting a cautious and realistic stance. In a statement that has been highlighted, Marco Silva stated that "the accounts are settled at the end of the season," suggesting it is premature to make assessments before the end of the competition.
The coach also emphasized that Benfica still "has a lot to improve," demonstrating that, despite possible positive results, he recognizes room for evolution in the team. This position contrasts with any high expectations that may exist regarding the performance of the Lisbon team.

The coach appears to prefer keeping his feet firmly on the ground, avoiding creating excessive expectations among the fans.
