I’m surprised how bad Portugal are given their team and squad

They’d be a lot better with Leao up front and Ronaldo not in the squad

Fernandes
Palinha
Vitinha
Leao
Mendes
Jota

All 6 of these are class

Ronaldo just gets in the way

Forgot about Bernardo and Felix too

Can Costa do it again

France keeper didn’t even have to make a save. That was the difference

Course the former Chelsea man misses. I expected nothing else

Coming around to the idea of more winter World Cup's watching these Euro's.

Have these International tournaments when players aren't dead on their feet & just wanna go on holiday.

Why we not talking love island or elections

Cucurella best in world

Veiga potential to be

Might as well just sell Chilwell

Marc Cucurella vs Germany:

- 125 minutes played
- 90% pass accuracy
- 3 clearances made
- 2 blocks made
- 2 interceptions
- 1 tackle
- Dribbled past just once
- 4/7 duels won
- Fouled 3 times

🚨 Chelsea consider Veiga an excellent value proposition, particularly considering that he is taller than Calafiori and has a cleaner injury history. (@TheAthleticFC) #CFC

Why is Martinez so obsessed with Ronaldo playing every minute of every game ? Portugal have so much attacking talent yet a near 40 year old is prioritised ahead of all of them. Portugal may have won this tournament if the manager wasn't so obsessed with Ronaldo.

There's something very fishy going on with that. This might be an actual case of the manager not having full control over selection, resting everyone except Ronaldo against Georgia was blatantly taking the p!ss.

In hindsight Martinez getting the job makes a bit of sense too now. He developed systems to carry Lukaku for over 10 years, so the Portuguese FA would view him as a willing & credible candidate to do the same for Ronaldo.

While having a cheeky pop at Ronaldo on YouTube yesterday, one of his minions responded with "keep crying" without any sense of irony.

Almost spat my drink out with laughter

It's very odd isn't it. Unless Martinez is just such a Ronaldo fan girl that he couldn't bear to even sub him off in some games. It's sad as Portugal have a really good generation of attacking players but we'll never know how good they could have been in this tourno.

This sounds very defensive doesn’t it. No, Califiori - we’re breaking up with you first!
Sounds like he chose Arsenal.

So what a rubbish line-up, why on earth has he picked Trippier who is utter crap

Crap manager

Crapager

Is this the right personnel for 3 4 3 ?

When I think of our team under Conte, this doesn't look like it......let's see.

It's a 4-2-3-1

I don't understand Southgate. Why not play Alexander Arnold today? Perfect opportunity.

To me yes, Saka is on the right, Foden is pretty much hugging the left wing and Bellingham is right behind Kane and the useless Trippier is at left back.
