^ Bento is not that bad. We have played way better games with him in charge. Everything just went wrong.
I`m just sad for Beto. Injured and he still didn`t want to leave. Every player should have had his spirit! |
The player's choosing for this WC was drastically bad, short-sighted and clearly catered to serve his "buddies" and the usual suspects.
Where's Antunes, one of the best portuguese left defenders of the last season?
Why put Patricio on the goal at the start when he hasn't played on his club for two months and Beto had an amazing season and ended up strong, while both Beto and Eduardo played good games in the pre-WC games?
Why the fuck did he called Andre Almeida, who's only a substitute player in the B team of Benfica?
Who in the right state of mind puts Bruno Alves in the starting lineup when he's been playing each game, since even during the qualifying stage, as shit, when you have Luis Neto who has been on an amazing form?
The fuck is Miguel Veloso doing on the national team?
These are some of the most blatant errors he did in this WC and in the games leading up to it.

He thought that those who were already experienced in playing these kind of games and know his style of playing would offer him the best team.
It`s the team that lead Portugal to the world cup, isn`t it?

True, and how much did we stumble to get in the WC in the first place? If it wasn't for a CR7 at 100% and particularly inspired on the away game vs Sweden, we wouldn't have made it through the play-offs.
We lost against Russia, drew both games against Israel, drew one game against Northern Ireland at home and we barely made the win against Luxembourg in the away game. The signs of match quality deterioration were there and Bento kept being stubborn not only with the same players, but with his same ideals. If he wants to be stalwart about what he believes it's the best for Portugal, then he too must suffer the consequences for when those ideals and plans fail miserably.
