Feel like ever since Ronaldo moved to Saudi and with the hype around Messi, we have forgotten about Ronaldo (though I’m not surprised). He has been doing real good with Al Nassr this season and is in great form, but because he no longer plays in Europe, will he even have a good Euro Tournament next year? The competition in Saudi Arabia is no where near what is in Europe, but then again its Ronaldo.

Portugal now has one of the best squads in their history, Prime Ronaldo would have made that team unstoppable, but with all the names available we could say YES they can go for it, especially with Martinez being in charge (We all know Fernando Santos wasn’t the one)
Let me remind you of some of the names in their squad
Bruno Fernandes (Man U) Danilo Pereira (PSG) Joao Felix (Barcelona) Joao Cancelo (Barcelona) Bernando Silva (Man City) Gonçalo Ramos (PSG)
And many more
Bro mentioned danilo but not ruben dias lol
Raphael leao - ac Milan
Are you crazy?
I would agree with Bruno, Cancelo , and Bernardo Silva.
Felix is inconsistent as fuck and cant fit a shot on target to save his life. Danilo is often injured at the end of the season, Ronaldo, still decent but he is way past his prime, and Ramos, also decent - perhaps w a bright future, but right now, it is not a player that would consistently figure as.a first team regular in any top European team. Right now he is a luxury bench option.
Portugal os a decent side, but far down in the list of favourites.
Best portuguese team ran perhaps between 2000 to 2010, where we were actually decent in every aingle position and had options outside a strong starting 11.
Currently, i would say we have a strong starting 5 or 6 and a 2nd line of players that despite good , would struggle tp be first team regulars in any side that has a shot at winning the champions league
Rúben dias, leão, jota, Matheus nunes, palhinha and the two wonderkids Antonio Silva and Joao Neves
