    Oh and the best players at the U20 world cup we're Pele and Antunes easily. Gama and Coentrao are good technically but need to mature a lot, Coentrao especially.

    That's kind of serious cus kids nowadays learn how to speak english since grammar school. His generation was since the 5th grade...shouldn't the club where he plays for be attentive to that?

    I watched Coentrao in a game for Portugal under 20s and I've got to agree with Joelzinho he is a carbon copy of Robben. Excellent wide man with good technique and speed but very one footed and looks awkward when he has to cut inside.

    This video sums him up for me. Excellent talent but needs to work on that right foot.
