He actually might have called up Pepe as DM and not CD, as he called 4 CD (R.Carvalho, B.Alves, Zé Castro e Rolando. Actually, this would be the team i would take to the world cup (hoping we qualify), just a few changes. Danny back when fit instead of Tiago. Quaresma back as winger and Hugo Almeida / Orlando Sá instead of Zé Castro, as we would already have 4 defenders including Pepe as one, and 2 DM Veloso and Pepe. Something like these, we would have at least 2 in each position. Goalkeepers: Beto Eduardo Rui Patrício Right Defenders: Bosingwa Miguel Central Defenders: Ricardo Carvalho Pepe Rolando (Fernando Meira) Bruno Alves Left Defenders: Duda Miguel Veloso / Miguel Defensive Midfielders: Pepe Miguel Veloso Raul Meireles Central Midfielders: Maniche Raul Meireles João Moutinho Attacking Midfielders: Deco Danny Wingers: Cristiano Ronaldo Simão Nani Quaresma Forwards: Liédson Nuno Gomes Hugo Almeida / Orlando Sá
Not because he plays for Sporting, but Veloso is playing some excellent ball, and deserves a call up. Unlike Liedson.
I must agree Veloso has really upped his game unlike Liedson but who would you call up since now Almeida is injured. Varela? Djalo? I would consider varela but Liedson seems a good choice ive never seen someone hustle to the ball as much as him. He moves he creates all he needs is to help us score now
Varela is young, but also a seasoned pro from all the years Sporting loaned him out, he could definitely help. Yannick though can't add much, only speed. What the heck is going on with Makukula, Benfa's pay a ton of money for him, and he's doing what in Seixal?
José Castro was impressive for Deportivo, definitely the best player in that team. I'm not fond of Rolando so this comes in a good time. D. Carriço should be considered too.

Lovin this formation... put i personally would have prefered mendes than maniche BIG TIME. Would have been great to have hungary first so we could experiment slightly on them before we hit the danish
+1 But I've seen worse: How Carvalho and Eduardo get benched makes no sense Deco as a trinco? Meireles with another undeserved start? Who knows knowing CQ there is more chance of this happening then going with an attacking lineup. Carlos I'm sure still thinks that drawing every game will get Portugal to the world cup. I mean it worked so well in 93.
you guys talk bad about this lineup, but this is closer to what we will see on Saturday, judging from what I have been reading. Já se tinha percebido há muito que o Portugal da bandeirinha à janela é parte do passado. Queiroz não tem o mesmo impacto de Scolari - aquele populismo nem sequer lhe corre na veia ou no discurso - e os resultados entretanto conquistados também levaram ao cepticismo de um país há bem pouco tempo habituado a outra tranquilidade. Mas como o clima é de necessidades, ou de aflitos, Queiroz tenta tudo. "O losango tira mais rendimento dos nossos jogadores", disse no sábado ao "Record", confirmando essa aposta no 4x4x2. Porquê? Porque conjuga Liedson e Ronaldo na frente de ataque, porque preenche um meio-campo mais consistente, porque convida ao jogo ofensivo dos laterais. Se o Benfica ou o Sporting tivessem uma forte presença no onze inicial, dir-se-ia que esta seria a selecção inspirada nos losangos dos dois grandes de Lisboa, na ideias de Jorge Jesus e Paulo Bento. Em 2003, quando começou a preparar o campeonato da Europa, Scolari agarrou-se ao meio-campo que José Mourinho tinha construído no FC Porto campeão europeu (Costinha, Maniche e Deco). http://www.ionline.pt/conteudo/20785-queiroz-revolucao-em-final-campanha
I did say that we are more likely to see that line up. But That's the type of lineups we have been seeing and the results are in 0-0 Draw. We are at our best when we play attacking and leave space for the opposition to try and play with the ball. All the DM's just lead to us not scoring and give false sense of security which leads to counters.
I am sorry, but we cannot play Moutinho against this Denmark team. If we play him the midfield will suffer...
Players have already began trainning. Here is a video of the boys, as well as the much confrontational decision to include Leidson. Miguel, Pepe and Veloso among others speak on the Levezinho situation... http://tv1.rtp.pt/noticias/?headline=20&visual=9&tm=27,28,29,44,45,43,46,47,3 P.S: Pepe is losing his Brasilian accent ..lol
Guys, there's no way Liedson starts this game. The biggest game of the NT Qualifying against the toughest team in our group on the road and you want Liedson to start in his debut?! No way, the guy would be incredibly nervous and the team would have had 1 week exactly playing with him. The team is already such a nervous bunch since Queiroz took over - this kind of desperate last-minute naturalized Brazilian striker to save-our-a$$ thing just reeks of desperation. Let the team settle down and then have Liedson be the "injection of energy" sub early in the 2nd half. If you start Liedson and he tanks, who the hell can we bring in to spice things up? Almeida?!? I am guessing that CQ will start H. Almeida in some kind of pseudo 4-4-2 with Simao/Ronaldo alternating as 2nd strikers/wingers with Nani on the opposite flank. Then at minute 60-70, he'll bring Liedson on for Almeida. Actually, the rest of the lineup I think is much more up-in-the-air. I assume that he'll keep Eduardo in goal, right? Maybe. But what about Midfield? That is a complete toss-up. It's so early in the season - who is match ready? Tiago played well for Juve last weekend from what I hear. He might get the start. Or he could choose to start Deco and bring in Tiago to replace him. Either option I prefer over Moutinho. My prediction: ----------Eduardo---------------- Bos -- Pepe -- B.Alves -- Duda Nani -- R. Meireles -- Deco -- Simao -- Ronaldo -- H. Almeida -- But there's a lot of other ways to go. Carvalho for Pepe if Pepe plays DM (for Meireles). Tiago for Deco, etc... He might also consider playing a 4-2-3-1, especially as we are playing in Denmark. This is a real tough game, especially this early in the season (not that we are that great late in last season... ;-) ).
