if we beat Denmark in the Nations league we go into group F and if we lose we go to group C We stay in 4 team group 6 games to qualify Group C: Portugal/Denmark Greece Scotland Belarus Group F: Portugal/Denmark Hungary Republic of Ireland Armenia
more importantly! now that portugal along with spain and morroco have won the Wc bid, what are the chances ronaldo plays for the NT until 2030. lmaoooooo
I've always respected Ronaldo's dedication to his fitness and health. Only a really supremely fit individual could cold plunge -2 degree C and smile, not shiver, or express being cold. 1871879290977243248 is not a valid tweet id
1. Team would play better without him because their entire strategy is to cater to him 2. He didn't do shit when it mattered at WC2020 and Euro 2024. Dude is cooked.
Well then, the meaningless nations league head to head with Denmark would be a good time to experiment with that.
Play better without him? I haven't seen anyone step up in his position in his obscene. Who ideally plays as CF? If you are gonna day Jota I totally agree. But besides that Portugal is thin up front.
They've always been thin up front. Name the last time that has a world class striker (before Ronaldo became a CF and was exclusively a winger/LM/RM)? Pauleta? Goncalo Ramos, Jota, etc. Plenty of options who don't dictate that the run of play must go through them. Look, this has been discussed ad nauseam. The entire national team is a proxy team created and run by Jorge Mendes and his agency. The right players don't get called up, the wrong players do, and the wrong players start games with multiple players playing out position or with other players that don't coexist together. Portugal has a wealth of talent but can't put shit together because they can't get out of their own way, have a spineless coward as their head coach, and only call up and play Gestifute garbage.
This is kind of the crux of the problem though isn’t it? When was the last time Ronaldo was absent? He’s playing the full 90 minutes of meaningless games because his little personal records are more important than Portugal. Gonçalo Ramos is playing well in a real league. Him and Jota are clearly above Ronaldo right now.
Seriously lol who else do these guys want to replace his spot ? Jota ? Ramos ? Lol Rafa come out of retirement ?
Do you have a better option than Ronaldo up front ? We literally have produced 1 true striker in over a decade.. Last I recall was Hugo Almeida or Postiga..
Yes, I want the two guys playing and scoring for Liverpool and PSG to start over the guy playing in Saudi Arabia. Why is this even a question?
LOL ya cuz Ramos really did so much for Portugal outside of the Switzerland WC 2022 game.. Him and Jota are injured every other month and they are 10 + years younger than Ronaldo who is never injured..
Pretty sure Ramos has more goals than Ronaldo does in the last two tournaments. Again, why wouldn’t you want the guys playing well at the highest level playing?
Pepe has more World Cup knockout game goals than Ronaldo, is he a better player than Ronaldo ? Ramos looked promising but shit the bed completely after the World Cup and hasn't done anything other than ride the bench since.. He's injured more than Jota.. No thanks..
Dude , Ronaldo as much as we all love him is not the same player, not even close . He rarely comes back, half the times walks back then on a counter attack is offside and can’t receive a pass . Can’t run like he use to . Missing clear open chances etc . I don’t like talking about him this way, he is a Portuguese hero but he is hanging on too long past due
