He was pish against Hungary too, takes a brave man to say it on here though with the tina loyal irate at the mere mention of it
I’m sure England are enthralled at the prospect of playing Germany again. Though Germany have been so up and down England have a real chance if they just get it together.

I fully expect the true Ronaldo to shine through and demolish our defence haha

Jesus, could be a mauling.
I’m hoping you put them out, need Lukaku and KDB at top form.

Can’t see Belgium taking them. They’re what Spain were in the 90’s, loads of cracking players but never deliver on the international stage.

Ronaldo could bag a perfect hatrick in the final and you’d still say he was pish.He was pish against Hungary too, takes a brave man to say it on here though with the tina loyal irate at the mere mention of it

Portugal number 16 is the exact type of player we need in our midfield.
Just dreaming of course.

England, if they can get past Germany, have a pretty easy path to the final.
the draw is so lopsided.
Italy, Belgium, Spain, Portugal, France all on one side of the draw….. England, Germany, Holland on the other.

Don’t think I’ve ever said he was pish, poor or even average in the entirety of his career so that’s clearly bollocks if we’re honest mate

He was murder tonight.
No, they don't. Not at all. Southgate will ensure that doesn't happen.

On paper it is a great opportunity for England, unfortunately I just don't see them being able to overcome that challenge.

Definitely German defence is absolutely shocking and Dutch defence nothing special either. They have avoided Spain, the in form Italy, Ronnie inspired Portugal, and the power and pace play of France and Belgium.

Loved that game tonight.
Passing from pogba.
Griezman all over the pitch.
Renato Sanchez , just pace , power and work ethic.
Pepe strolling it at the back.
The ref!!!!!

For a team with so much flair and attacking skill, you feel everything must go through Ronaldo which is understandable but equally in the closest of games could be problematic.
Jota seems to play so wide and drop deep he rarely looks like scoring, Im not sure hes even had a shot on target thus far.
The midfield changes last night gave Portugal a huge power up and Swansea's Renato Sanchez was everywhere. Even the might of France struggled to hold him down.
You could see an equally nip/tuck game vs Belgium but their defence doesnt seem quite so strong and I think Portugal will sneak past.
Its almost a rerun of 2016 - they keep grinding results out and Ronaldo is always there to nudge them over the line exactly when its needed.
