At least being knocked out in group stage should be easier to take than losing in the knockouts. Unfortunately, Portugal will probably screw us by getting knocked out in semi's though.

Who starts opposite of Ronaldo? Is it automatically Nani's spot?

Given everyone's enthusiasm, maybe Portugal will surprise us this time! I've barely watched their qualificiation, but somebody's got to start...and while I am at it, I'm not going to pick starting line-up vs Germany, I'll pick the starting line-up of the final, which they will win of course: __________Patricio JP____Alves____Pepe_____Coentrao Moutinho___Meireles____Veloso __Nani_____Oliveira____CR Yes, I am not delirious, it's never as expected, I am feeling dramatic, and you need surprise heroes, so I went with Oliveira coming out of nowhere to spearhead this team in the end. It's not like I've picked Viana to pull the strings, that dream has died many moons ago. FORCA!!! Bring on ze germans!

Ricardo Costa is nothing if not consistent.

Our back were awful yet again. Carvalho and Boswinga are missed. Ugolin's ego really screwed us.
Miguel Veloso is our worst player, useless.
Miguel Lopes deserves a second look.
Postiga may be our best option up front.
Ricardo Costa will not see a minute of play in the Euro, that we can pretty much guarantee now.
Oh, and let us all pray that Nani is not hurt.

gentlemen. remember the good ol' finalfootball days? was our defence ugly or what? LOL ----------------rui patricio joao------------pepe-----------alves-----coentrao ------------------------custodio------------ --------------------meireles------------ ---------------------------------------moutinho nani-------------------------------------------ronaldo ---------------------------postiga----------- - shit don't i miss carvalho... - veloso has been "ugly" as of late. custodio looked better in the 20 mins than 3 games of miguel...LOL - lopes was a pleasant surprise. - is almeida really a striker? could have fooled me. start postiga or even the kid i'm feeling pretty good considering there really isn't any expectations for us. if we can get our act together and play like we did against spain and argentina, we might actually get out of the group and surprise some people. few more days ....PORTUGAL

I felt they played well, let's beat the Dutch and Danes and we're good. I feel more confident in this team now despite the loss.

will watch the game this morning on rebroadcast. Had a family thing I couldn't get out of yesterday afternoon and suffered checking the score on the phone.
Sounds like they put in a good performance but got no lucky breaks? Same old, same old?

Yes!!! 3 points for Portugal! But, must Portugal always play Denmark!? Geez! Now Germany must lose to Holland…Then Portugal and Denmark win and both advance!!! Sounds good to me!
