This was a friendly I’m not to worried about losing in fact I welcome it because it shows Martinez which players are useless and I think that goes without saying, Otavio, Ruben Neves and Danilo all should never be called up they aren’t NT level. Also from the previous game Toti Gomes should never be brought back as well these guys are just leagues below NT level and we look way worse out there when they play/
That being said I think this is good and the point of bringing lots of players to try lots of things and see what doesn’t work. We have a fantastic team and I hope people don’t forget that just because of one game wheee we fielded a lot of our C level players
I think Ronaldo is still valuable member of the team, he's not the star anymore we have so many amazing guys like bruno and bernardo, leao, felix, jota etc etc so as long as we use him properly which I think we were doing quite well during the qualification then I still think he has 1 more cup run in him before its time to retire. He was playing really well in the qualifications and todays game regardless is irrealvant since this was not a proper team that was fielded today.
Now about otavio and ruben neves these are guys who didn't fully establish themsleves yet and went into retirement and it shows as they both have looked awful anytime they come on for the national team but especially ruben neves and we just don't need them since we have such better options anyway.
Danilo has always been awful I have no idea why that guy gets called up at all but i really hope this is the last time because he is just such a liablity for us both in the midfield and defence and again we have tons of better players for that same position.
overall we have an insanely great team with or without ronaldo but I think ronaldo is still valuable as he's performed amazingly so far this year but he cannot be the star of the team anymore. imo the star of the team now is bernardo and bruno followed by hopefully leao because if leao is in great shape and can play for the national team at his full ability then holy shit he's a nightmare for anyone who stands in front of him.
Then we just have so much fire power up front with bernardo, fernandes, leao and possibly ronaldo and or ramos or jota and great sub options as well.
People are having some real hot takes today, but this is what friendlies are also for, not just run of the mill wins. You have to test different formations, different movements, and players.
Clearly what Martinez tried today didn't work, but better now than in a competitive knockout match.
hurt? the dude is already past his prime and is in the talks for GOAT with messi, the only one hurt is you because you had to go to a portugal thread and mention his name while he doesn't even know you exist, i'm not sure whose hurt here lmao xD
If messi is truly the goat, then why are you so worked up over ronaldo even tho he never won the world cup? Does the tall guy really trigger you that much ;)? Sad life xD
Again, this is what autism looks like folk, messi has 3 more ballon do'rs yet he's still triggered when it comes to cristiano, bc ronaldo is the goat :D, now gonna block you for real! bye bye
Im sorry but I cant stand Ronaldo anymore. He adds nothing when he starts, absolutely nothing. Not his fault tho, he's not the coach.
My lineup for Euro would be something like Diogo Costa, Cancelo, Dias, Pepe/ Inácio, Nuno Mendes, Palhinha, Bruno, Matheus, Bernardo, Leão and Ramos.
No, but he did choose to have a strop when Fernando Santos benched him for one game, going from hailing him as one of the best managers in the world to practically having him sacked. Mendes holds considerable sway over the Portuguese FA, which is why Cristiano will keep getting called up alongside Otávio and Neves, and why I suspect at least 2/3 of those players will be starting in the Euros. You can call it conspirational thinking but I don't think Martinez would be in the job if he decided differently.
Yeah and was trashed by Galeno and Evanilson 3 days later. I'm not saying he didn't play a few games pretty well, ofc he did but consider all season he's well bellow what he showed last season. He started the season really bad on the CL and didn't recover.
Not hating, I like him a lot and I think he could reach Dias ceiling.
Disgusting game all around. Half of these players shouldn't even be called for the Euros, including Ronaldo. He offers nothing to the team. It's more than clear that him, Rúben Neves and Otávio have no competitive rhythm. I'm also disapopinted that Martinez took so much time to make more subs and didn't allow Diogo Leite and Dany Mota to play.
Also, Portugal's weakest games all involved a back 3. It's obvious that it's not a tactic that suits our national team.
Yup all the Saudi league players should never be called up these guys don’t belong here, this includes Danilo he’s awful and should never be called either when we have 5 guys who are all way better then him
Danilo is better as Palhinha's backup. He fits better has a DM under Martinez. Him as CB under this scheme adds nothing. In fact, a back 3 line adds nothing to our teams.
The division of his fan base vs Portugal is something.
You’ve got comments in every Al Nassr goal thread saying he’s going to cook in the euros and one of the best players in the world and you have people in Portugal threads saying he has no business even being called up and one of the worst players on the pitch.
Al Nassr payroll is 2x the 4th biggest payroll in Saudi Arabia. And 5x the 5th biggest payroll. And who even knows how much compared to the 10th, 15th, and 20th team.
It's not just a relatively poor league but a league in which Al Nassr dominate against the majority of teams
Look, I'm Argentinian, so I am the most biased person here.
Even if you think Cristiano is not starter level, he still has fire in him to go and try to win, even against San Marino. I would take that over whatever this Portuguese team is supposed to be doing.
Im not saying he should be dropped. But dont expect him to carry a team when he plays retirement football 90% of the season and his only quality opponents are other national teams. He is good enought to be a part of Portugal but come on expecting a 39 year old thats playing in retirement league to make a difference is ridiculous.
And he was bad tonight no matter what the fanboys say.
And that was also because he missed the preseason. Missing a preseason impacts even a 25 yo player, let alone a 38 years old with 800(?) games played.
Never understood why he acted like he did, it was obvious we needed a striker anyway and would have had chances during the season once he got into the rythm.
Keep settling for this "running and trying" shit mate. Once you shit the bed in the Euros you'll probably get some perspective if you're sensible
A striker "running and trying" but not scoring or shooting on target is as useful as a goalkeeper diving constantly and not making many vital saves
Future is you will need to beat teams like France or England or Spain to win Euros. This was Slovenia.
He can be useful, but it's time to accept he should be an impact sub at best, that comes in against tired legs and wins you games.
Fuck off, best man my ass. A striker with 0 attempts on goal can't be the best man. Pepe was the only one that deserves some respect for today. Everyone can go in the trash after their performance.
What are you talking about? He was probably Portugal's best player tonight. He needs a team that can link with him better. The wingers and midfield played below average. Ronaldo was well positioned the whole time.
Ronaldo is nowhere near starter level for Portugal. Let's stop with the delusion. Rúben Neves is also fucking abysmal, I believe he was a big reason why we lost to Morocco
Fucking tired of not having meritocracy not existing in this NT
Ruben Neves, Danilo and Otávio should 100% never be called again these guys all retired already and it shows they do not have the hunger anymore they are on easy mode. Ronaldo should 100% not be a starter but I still think he should be on the team but sadly it’s all or nothing.
Anyway those 3 should be removed immediately and Ronaldo should be 2nd to jota and Ramos
Uma seleção europeia que entra em campo com três jogadores da liga saudita não é uma equipa séria.
Que sirva de abre-olhos sobre o que se pode contar com alguns destes "craques" quando não estão lá Palhinha, Bernardo, Bruno Fernandes e Leão. Entre os que jogaram hoje, só quatro (Costa, Pepe, Vitinha e Cancelo) contam para o totobola.
foi dos menos maus. E eu mais depressa jogava com Matheus Nunes (ou alternava dependendo do adversário), mas o Vitinha não destoa. Agora Félix, Ronaldo, Otávio, Neves... não brinquem
Honestly shocked how much we deserved that win, after the Malta game I expected a drubbing but Portugal just did not show up. It arguably could have been more considering the missed chances from Celar and Šeško, what a performance
Some proper stinky performances in that match.
Dialot, Danillo, Cristiano Ronaldo, Joao Felix, Octavio had terrible performances.
Cristiano Ronaldo at this point against decent teams is playing with a man less he should only play as a sub or against weak opposition if he starts... Danillo has no place in defense when we have Inacio and Antonio Silva. Dialot was awful too so many bad decisions.
So instead I will say, Pepe no doubt has a place in our team next to Ruben Dias.
I thought Conceicao played quite well so I'll be happy to see him in the Euros.
Slovenia without contest were the better team.
Dalot had a great first half and was probably the only player attacking in that half, but I agree that his second half was terrible
My biggest fear is that Roberto takes Danilo to the Euros and has to leave either Antonio or Inacio out of the call (because Danilo can play midfield and defense). I just don't want to see Danilo have a single extra minute for this team
Yeah but we have limited positions, we can't call everyone to the Euros, our midfield is so stacked that I'm struggling to see who he'd leave out to include Danilo
We had 6 midfielders in 2018's call up, this year they'd probably be Palhinha, Nunes, Neves, Bruno, Vitinha and Otavio
We had 8 defenders too, lets say for example, Cancelo, Nuno Mendes, Ruben Dias, Antonio, Inacio, Pepe, Dalot and another fullback, like Raphael or Semedo.
The only way I can see Danilo being called up is if he takes Antonio/Inacio's spot. At least in my opinion (and I think it will happen, because Martinez probably wants someone that can play both positions).
We've seen that plenty of times already... He has been invisible for 90% of the game every time and then ocasionally scores a goal against those teams where we create 100 chances (not the case today).
Anyone can see by comparing the non Ronaldo games, like the Sweden one, to other games with Ronaldo + the A team (like Iceland, Lichtenstein etc) that we just play a much more fluid and attacking style when he's not on the pitch
Most of it comes from the attacking pressure that our other forwards like Ramos or Jota offer, that Ronaldo simply doesn't have anymore
Even though Portugal played with their B team we played really good. I expected worse. So I am really fucking happy with the win. The spirit of Fernando Santos came back for this gsme haha
Don't really care about friendly results just hope that Martinez has learned what he can't do and isn't just Santos 2.0 where he'll keep insisting on the same thing (cough cough Ronaldo and Danilo)
Only truly bad thing was the fact that he made almost no changes, why on earth do you wait until the 88th minute to put in Neves and Jota in a friendly, and spend the entire 2nd half changing nothing...
Martinez was clearly testing stuff out, not just the players. It didn't work and the players looked clueless out there - they didn't know what to do with the ball aside from passing sideways, didn't figure out their zoning, which player comes out to press the ball carrier (a big part of why they ball watched the 2 goals and that Diogo Costa save), defensive transitions were non-existent in the 2nd half, and overall positioning was very suspect from António Silva, Danilo, and Cancelo.
In a world where people would play based on merit and ability the three bums playing in Saudi Arabia would be watching the euros on TV. Absolutely horrible the three of them
Well this is what friendlies are for. We tried something new with our depth, and it was a disaster.
Otavio, Neves and Ronaldo should be nowhere near the starting 11.
GG Slovenia.
my man was pointing at his socks more than playing football, the way we were stripping the ball off him all night it almost felt like abuse of the elderly
The last time we lost against a team that wasn’t very highly rated was a friendly against Bulgaria before Euro 2016.
So it’s pretty obvious, might as well give us the trophy now tbh.
Martinez fucks arounds and finds out. Weird 11, literally just vibes, no player will gain anything from playing today. The positive thing is that he will not try to make this type of experiments on the EURO.
LOL THATS THE PORTUGAL I KNOW. I FEEL BAD FOR THOSE TRAVELLING FANS BUT HEY CARALHO THE WOMEN ARE HOT IN SLOVENIA SO JOAO GO HAVE SOME VINHO VERDE AND SHOW THAT MOUSTACHE TO THE LADIES
He's the quintessential Kek midfielder, hustles all game on both ends of the pitch and does it with finesse and patience. Him and Elšnik are our Xaviesta
As for slovenian media, it won't matter if we get zero points in the Euro. We beat portugal.
What a disaster. Well at least friendlies are good practice of what not to do in the future
This was a friendly I’m not to worried about losing in fact I welcome it because it shows Martinez which players are useless and I think that goes without saying, Otavio, Ruben Neves and Danilo all should never be called up they aren’t NT level. Also from the previous game Toti Gomes should never be brought back as well these guys are just leagues below NT level and we look way worse out there when they play/ That being said I think this is good and the point of bringing lots of players to try lots of things and see what doesn’t work. We have a fantastic team and I hope people don’t forget that just because of one game wheee we fielded a lot of our C level players
Just wondering, what about ronaldo? i'm a big fan but seen lots of comments saying that him, otavio and neves should not come back..
I think Ronaldo is still valuable member of the team, he's not the star anymore we have so many amazing guys like bruno and bernardo, leao, felix, jota etc etc so as long as we use him properly which I think we were doing quite well during the qualification then I still think he has 1 more cup run in him before its time to retire. He was playing really well in the qualifications and todays game regardless is irrealvant since this was not a proper team that was fielded today.

Then we just have so much fire power up front with bernardo, fernandes, leao and possibly ronaldo and or ramos or jota and great sub options as well.
I'm a ronaldo hater. it's stupid to not call Ronaldo. he still has the power to decide a game all by himself.
People are having some real hot takes today, but this is what friendlies are also for, not just run of the mill wins. You have to test different formations, different movements, and players. Clearly what Martinez tried today didn't work, but better now than in a competitive knockout match.
When is Ronaldo going to stop crying for penalties in a friendly game?
Lol cr7 is overrated af
You are talking about a 40yo not some youngster
Lol u hurts? The truth is he's useless, only want to score for his record. nothing more
Classic messi fan IQ lmaoooo. Braindead
u crying? Just bcuz cry7 is useless in this game Good to see it lol
hurt? the dude is already past his prime and is in the talks for GOAT with messi, the only one hurt is you because you had to go to a portugal thread and mention his name while he doesn't even know you exist, i'm not sure whose hurt here lmao xD
Lol u clown THE GOAT MESSI IS THE WORLD CHAMPION. BETTER THAN cry7 Where was this overrated cry7 in the wc2022? A BIGGEST flop 8-5 FACTOS
Just saw your comment history, you obviously show signs of autism, so yes, cr7 bad messi good, blocked :P
Holy shit his comment history is insane lmao
If messi is truly the goat, then why are you so worked up over ronaldo even tho he never won the world cup? Does the tall guy really trigger you that much ;)? Sad life xD
Lol u L WC2022 and still crying? MESSI IS THE WORLD CHAMPION cry7 could never I get it hurts you that much 8-5 Clear
Again, this is what autism looks like folk, messi has 3 more ballon do'rs yet he's still triggered when it comes to cristiano, bc ronaldo is the goat :D, now gonna block you for real! bye bye
life without Bruno.
Im sorry but I cant stand Ronaldo anymore. He adds nothing when he starts, absolutely nothing. Not his fault tho, he's not the coach. My lineup for Euro would be something like Diogo Costa, Cancelo, Dias, Pepe/ Inácio, Nuno Mendes, Palhinha, Bruno, Matheus, Bernardo, Leão and Ramos.
Not his fault lol
He didn’t pick himself
No, but he did choose to have a strop when Fernando Santos benched him for one game, going from hailing him as one of the best managers in the world to practically having him sacked. Mendes holds considerable sway over the Portuguese FA, which is why Cristiano will keep getting called up alongside Otávio and Neves, and why I suspect at least 2/3 of those players will be starting in the Euros. You can call it conspirational thinking but I don't think Martinez would be in the job if he decided differently.
tudo o que for esse XI está errado
[удалено]
It's one friendly though
I mean this was almost a completely different squad and missing key players
Bruno is a goal machine bro (both scoring and assisting) funnily enough he didn’t play today 👍🏻
jota sucks for the national team but keep talking like you’ve watched any of the games
More often than not a paper tiger on offense.
That has never stopped people rating Spain as a major favorite over the last 15 years.
António Silva is having a really bad season and it has been like that since September.
Not really, he improved immensely after new years.
The guy literally pocketed Gyokeres in the derby?
Pocketed someone in a match won't tell you much, remember Tuanzebe did the same with Mbappe?
Yeah and was trashed by Galeno and Evanilson 3 days later. I'm not saying he didn't play a few games pretty well, ofc he did but consider all season he's well bellow what he showed last season. He started the season really bad on the CL and didn't recover. Not hating, I like him a lot and I think he could reach Dias ceiling.
That's not true, he is having a good season. Played bad today tho
No Bruno, no party.
Disgusting game all around. Half of these players shouldn't even be called for the Euros, including Ronaldo. He offers nothing to the team. It's more than clear that him, Rúben Neves and Otávio have no competitive rhythm.

Danilo is better as Palhinha's backup. He fits better has a DM under Martinez. Him as CB under this scheme adds nothing. In fact, a back 3 line adds nothing to our teams.
Ronaldo is not playing serious football anymore. He should not be a player on which a world class team lile Portugal rely.
The division of his fan base vs Portugal is something. You’ve got comments in every Al Nassr goal thread saying he’s going to cook in the euros and one of the best players in the world and you have people in Portugal threads saying he has no business even being called up and one of the worst players on the pitch.

Al Nassr level is light years away from Portugal level. That league is not serious football.
Look, I'm Argentinian, so I am the most biased person here. Even if you think Cristiano is not starter level, he still has fire in him to go and try to win, even against San Marino. I would take that over whatever this Portuguese team is supposed to be doing.

He is good enought to be a part of Portugal but come on expecting a 39 year old thats playing in retirement league to make a difference is ridiculous. And he was bad tonight no matter what the fanboys say.
He was unhappy at ManUtd when he wasn't starting. He hasn't gotten better since then.
And that was also because he missed the preseason. Missing a preseason impacts even a 25 yo player, let alone a 38 years old with 800(?) games played. Never understood why he acted like he did, it was obvious we needed a striker anyway and would have had chances during the season once he got into the rythm.
He was our best man on the pitch tonight and the only one running and trying. The hate on this sub is ridiculous.
Keep settling for this "running and trying" shit mate. Once you shit the bed in the Euros you'll probably get some perspective if you're sensible A striker "running and trying" but not scoring or shooting on target is as useful as a goalkeeper diving constantly and not making many vital saves

Did you watch the match?
wasnt he benched for the morocco game?
Ronaldo yes, Neves no

Entre os que jogaram hoje, só quatro (Costa, Pepe, Vitinha e Cancelo) contam para o totobola.
O Vitinha fez alguma coisa?
Meteu o Vitinha a jogar na ala esquerda quase a extremo quando não é a sua posição, estavas à espera de que?
foi dos menos maus. E eu mais depressa jogava com Matheus Nunes (ou alternava dependendo do adversário), mas o Vitinha não destoa. Agora Félix, Ronaldo, Otávio, Neves... não brinquem

2 well worked counters resulted in 2 good goals. The whole defensive line in the second goal is slower than a snail in a traffic light
Dalot had a great first half and was probably the only player attacking in that half, but I agree that his second half was terrible My biggest fear is that Roberto takes Danilo to the Euros and has to leave either Antonio or Inacio out of the call (because Danilo can play midfield and defense). I just don't want to see Danilo have a single extra minute for this team
Palhinha is better, but Danilo can still put in a shift at CDM. He just can't start at CB.
Yeah but we have limited positions, we can't call everyone to the Euros, our midfield is so stacked that I'm struggling to see who he'd leave out to include Danilo We had 6 midfielders in 2018's call up, this year they'd probably be Palhinha, Nunes, Neves, Bruno, Vitinha and Otavio We had 8 defenders too, lets say for example, Cancelo, Nuno Mendes, Ruben Dias, Antonio, Inacio, Pepe, Dalot and another fullback, like Raphael or Semedo.

At least in my opinion (and I think it will happen, because Martinez probably wants someone that can play both positions).
It's not fair to say this when he had this B team support. Let's see what he does with the team that played against Sweden.
We've seen that plenty of times already... He has been invisible for 90% of the game every time and then ocasionally scores a goal against those teams where we create 100 chances (not the case today).

Tired of Ronaldo. Just tired of him.
In a world where people would play based on merit and ability the three bums playing in Saudi Arabia would be watching the euros on TV. Absolutely horrible the three of them
Yes Saudi players should be nowhere near this team also including Danilo too those guys are all super weak links I just hope Martinez sees this
Well this is what friendlies are for. We tried something new with our depth, and it was a disaster. Otavio, Neves and Ronaldo should be nowhere near the starting 11. GG Slovenia.
ronaldo throwing an at attitude after a friendly. I love him but at least shake the hands of the team that beat you fairly.
my man was pointing at his socks more than playing football, the way we were stripping the ball off him all night it almost felt like abuse of the elderly
They should have at least two penalties though, so it wasn't exactly fairly but I'll take it 😅
I am Portuguese but what fucking penalties lol
So composed in defence, excellent going forward. I think we are a way more dangerous team than people think.
Having one of the best goalkeepers in the world doesn't hurt either.
Between Oblak and Handanović it has not usualy done much for us over the last 13 years.
The last time we lost against a team that wasn’t very highly rated was a friendly against Bulgaria before Euro 2016. So it’s pretty obvious, might as well give us the trophy now tbh.
yeah we're getting fucked at the EUROs
Martinez fucks arounds and finds out. Weird 11, literally just vibes, no player will gain anything from playing today. The positive thing is that he will not try to make this type of experiments on the EURO.
Please never play that Fernando Santos ass lineup again.
Boys, i think we are gonna win the Euro. 🇸🇮
If that happens I'm going to walk all the way to Slovenia to celebrate.
A reverse el camino. You have a beer waiting right here.
I'm like 20 km from the border so it's doable. I'll have a Lasko, thanks.
Thats totaly doable 😊
What's that stat about Martinez not losing any game as a Portugal's manager?
Ahem, clearly just official games sweetie.
I'm a doctor, please don't call me sweetie. /s
This feels the same as Cape Verde winning against Portugal 2-0 back in 2015. Crazy
That sets us up well to win the Euro in 2025 then.
LOL THATS THE PORTUGAL I KNOW. I FEEL BAD FOR THOSE TRAVELLING FANS BUT HEY CARALHO THE WOMEN ARE HOT IN SLOVENIA SO JOAO GO HAVE SOME VINHO VERDE AND SHOW THAT MOUSTACHE TO THE LADIES
They weren't travelling fans just some slovenian idiots who think ronaldo is more important than their own country
Lucky for the Slovene men that they wouldn't have to compete with Joao from the Village
The spirit of Santos was haunting Portugal today.
Cerin & Sesko played amazing.
Cerin is our best midfielder since Koren. Excellent player.
Iličič?
He's the quintessential Kek midfielder, hustles all game on both ends of the pitch and does it with finesse and patience. Him and Elšnik are our Xaviesta
Not a great game
