If vitinha plays there is zero balance in our team I think. Bruno Felix and Bernardo are already soft ass players, adding another one in vitinha would be too many imo
Otávio is a machine, don't be silly. Vitinha should be ahead of William, though. Ronaldo is starting from what I know.
WOW... Santos did the unthinkable and dropped Ronaldo. I wonder what the discussion was like. Is this a tactical decision? Put him in the 2nd half vs tired legs and (hopefully not needed) for Penalties? Only players who remain on the pitch at the end can take penalties... WOW, nonetheless. Santos is showing big BOLAS here. Let's just hope he got Ronaldo to understand it's for the better of the team and he still will play part (controlling the dressing room and have the team under control). I don't care who plays at this point, the starting XI has been decided and we MUST back this team. VAMOS PORTUGALLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wow..... ive been calling for him to be dropped and now that its happening I'm tripping out lmao. COMMON BOYS!!!! PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GET A W
Benching Ronaldo is the right move. Starting Otavio and William and benching Cancelo is borderline retardation. Either way, anything less than a win is a failure and Santos should be fired immediately
Felix? lol! Bruno is gonna step up. Ronaldo as a sub is tactical imho... We need him in the latter stages. Ramos will impress, every time I saw him he's a work horse, we need that.
"Foi a Antena 1 a primeira a noticiar que o Ronaldo não jogava. O mesmo jornalista que deu a notícia disse no noticiário seguinte que tinha visto a saída dos jogadores do hotel para o autocarro e que as coisas não estavam fáceis no seio da Selecção." No bueno.
Why didn't Santos play Ramos vs South Korea??? Just going to throw the kid to the wolves today? Anyways, I think he will do well.
Vitinha is a box-to-box midfielder who plays DM/CM. Don't know what you're talking about. Play him next to Palhinha and that's not soft at all.
Lol if anyone tunes in to portuguese tv and you see the players coming off the bus, CR7 has the biggest resting bitch face i've ever seen and everyone seems miserable. Thats why I fear we'll lose, because of all this tele-novela crap
Santos had no choice. Ronaldo cussed him out him in front of the whole world and I read he was even late to practice? Guy needs to be knocked down a peg or two. And if it actually lights a fire under him when he does play, that's good too .
