Well, today was fun but assuming we end up first (well, I believe in anything now), Spain coming in second is not really very good for us lol.

The day went pretty well for us. Apart from winning, going against a tired Morocco is pretty nice!

Noob question: what gets lost tactically if they try to play Ronaldo and Ramos at the same time ?

Gonçalo is still a pretty streaky striker, but hes just a absolute workhorse that opens everything up for fernandes, silva and felix. Joao felix is having a incredible WC, if we sort out our defending in corners and free kicks we might actually have a punters chance at winning this thing.

Lasagna Pilot posted:Noob question: what gets lost tactically if they try to play Ronaldo and Ramos at the same Ronaldo's problem at this stage in his career is he either stands relatively static in the box if he's not part of play when the ball is out wide, expecting a cross, or he hangs around in the half space between where a 10 would be and a left sided forward. If Ramos was playing alongside Ronaldo, Portugal would need to switch formation to accommodate a front two and probably sacrificing a midfielder to do so since you don't want to give up width or the defensive structure. That might have been fine against this Switzerland team as far as the midfield goes, but to go back to what I said earlier about the spaces Ronaldo hangs out in during a match, he'd be constantly either taking up space Ramos wants to run into, or standing in the spaces Bruno wants to operate in. At United this made the left sided forward less effective and Bruno operating from more wide positions, which loving sucks and would also for Portugal playing him in a front 2.

There’s another article on the Record. Apparently Ronnie’s personal manager is hanging around the team even though he doesn’t work for the Portuguese football fed. It’s pissing people off too.
