Aren't the Portuguese fed up with him? On paper, they have a fantastic team for the World Cup. But at this point, we have to admit that Ronaldo has become a dead weight who handicaps them more than he helps. Why is he still in the national team?
>>154625235Roberto Martinez is the bigger problem than Ronaldo
>>154625235Just let him get his Mickey mouse goals so he can retire
who's that
>>154625235>we have to admit that Ronaldo has become a dead weightmeanwhile in real life:
>>154625235at some point the coach will be younger than him
Alright, let's talk purely football then: who takes his place? Gonçalo, a glorified reserve for PSG? Leão as a false #9? Fucking Fábio Silva from Borussia? They are world class everywhere bar ST, no wonder Il Principe is still starting.
He's a small game player. What you want on your team when you're playing qualifiers gainst Luxemburg or San Marino.
With the money he must generate for the Portugal football association I dont see them retiring him any time soon, plus whenever they've played with him they havent done that much better so might as well just bring him.
>>154625371According to some brilliant minds, Paulinho who's playing in the fucking Mexican League.Most people still haven't noticed that there hasn't been a Portuguese striker starting in a top for like 15 years or something (Ronaldo was never a proper striker).The best striker that the portuguese academies, that claim to be among the best in the world, have produced in those 15 years is either Gonçalo Ramos or André Silva. The more you think about it, the worse it is.A manlet Diogo Jota was a more consistent target man than any actual pure striker options.
>>154626696>either Gonçalo Ramos or André Silva.These two really aren't so bad.
>>154627194>André SilvaNigga has 10 goals in Lel Liga playing for Elche, dude. Just let the old man play, at least he might bag some point-blank rebounds.
>>154626510He seems to try way too hard, and as the game goes on just gets frustrated with himself and others and things crumble.
>>154626510he will certainly deliver this time
>>154625235I am, but I am in the minority>>154626696Sadly all this. The Paulinho psyop by Mendes is a fucking embarassement
he was already a corpse in 2022, if you'd ask me then if there was a chance of him playing yet another cup 4 years later I'd say you were crazybut here we are
>>154627670He doesn't seem much worse now at least. Probably an upside of playing in a retirement league
>>154625235He's experienced, brings a lot of the spotlight and it's pressure to himself, leaving younger players more free and calm.As a player he positions well still, he's not bad to have in there even when he can't sprint the way he used to back in his man United days
>>154625235remember when he cried after missing a penalty against sloveniathey just let him score a goal against uzbekistan and then keep him on the bench for moral support
>>154630468*they should just let him
>>154625332Pissi retards live in delusions kek
>>154625332
>>154625235Whos that guy
>>154626696>Paulinho who's playing in the fucking Mexican Leagueour league is top 10 itw
not like it matters with the bald spic as a manager we arent winning anyways
If they were going to admit it they would have done it 12 years ago.
>>154625235a french flag making this post is somewhat ironic haha
>>154625235>But at this point, we have to admit that Ronaldo has become a dead weight who handicaps them more than he helps.This has been the truth throughout his whole club career, with the sole exception being his time at Sporting
>>154626696Just steal Endrick, CBF doesn't seem interested in him for some reason
He'll be a bit asset to Portugal winning the WC but not necessarily in the pitch.It's going to be another Messi in the middle east situation
cope n seethe
>>154625235>Aren't the Portuguese fed up with him?Mixed opinions on this. Some think he's no longer useful at all, others think he still earns a place in the starting XI, either because he "gave us so much and we have to retribute" or because they still trust him more to poach some goals than Ramos or some other fraud. Sadly, I have to side with the latter group.Like some have said, there's a Paulinho fan group now but I think the Mexican league has to be really shit if he can shine there.
Who was portugals top scorer in qualifers? Or final four nations league last year?
>>154636022Kek retard
>pissi leaves PSG>they win CL back to backkek
>>154625235He proved he's a soulless mercenary when he moved to the camel league for more money than anyone will ever need in a lifetime and statppaded goals instead of returning to sporting, his boyhood club who helped him launch his career in the first place. Great way of ruining a legacy.
>>154636291>Despite high volume shooting, he underperformedPenaldo's entre career summed up in one sentence.
>>154636630That's on mboop though
>>154636971He's not good enough for Sporting. It's questionable whether he's actually even good enough for Al-Camelfuck.
>>154637286He kinda was 3 years ago, even if he would be benched for most of the matches. I bet he would love to play against 9 man Tondela.
>>154636616>Real Madrid won 42% of the time with their bench team in meaningless matchesWoah, shocker
>>154636630They still didnt win when Messi left, it took Mbrapp to leave to win it
>>154638012mboop is shit too, just exposing the WC as a childrens only retards rate.
>>154638012>0 club titles since leaving JuventusFactos. But don't expect logic from gaynaldo fans. Pisstiano's career after leaving Madrid show what an overhymped fraud he really was.
Fed up with him? We all just want to violently TSU along as he blasts yet another free kick at the wall
>>154626510That’s just simply not true though is it
