they didn't told anything on Jornal da Tarde. Maybe he will call Fernandes.

 

[zuppafly]

I couldn't understand why wans't MF called again... I mean, the kid is playing amazing football, gets called once and then simply he forgets about him?

I so ******* hate Scolari...

And Makukula dropped Portugal for Congo

Looks like we just lost our future target man. He wasn't given enough support by those in charge of the National Team. His dream was to play for Portugal.

Nevertheless, he took the right choice. Best wishes for him...

 

[[nlb]legend]

We need to start getting behind the coach!!!! I know he s not everyones favourite right now but the guy got us to the euro 04 final, no one has ever done that for Portugal!!!!!

He s not my favourite but he s in charge and until we start losing or dont qualify for germany 06 we should get behind the guy!!!!
I know we drew at the mighty liechtenstein but we all have bad days and they responded by hammering Russia!!!

All I m saying is things could be worse, we could have that useless Moustache man Artur Jorge!!!!!!!!

"A Bola" says today that Figo will return to the NT in 4th June. Wonder if it's April's Fools.

Scolari demanded that the game Portugal-Slovakia has to be played at Estádio da Luz because he wants the higher support possible and wants to recreate the Euro2004 atmosphere.

 

[Virgo]

Alex was just called up for the NT. Scolari must be joking

 

[bmpv666]

And Figo is back

full list from Record:

Barcelona: Deco;
FC Porto: Costinha, Hélder Postiga, Maniche, Nuno Valente e Ricardo Costa;
Fulham: Luis Boa Morte;
Manchester United: Cristiano Ronaldo;
Paris Saint-Germain: Pauleta;
Deportivo: Jorge Andrade;
Benfica: Nuno Gomes, Miguel, Petit, Quim e Simão Sabrosa;

[Tiago_10]

Bmpv666, Quaresma and Manuel Fernandes were also called up

btw Alex wth ?! I don't think anyone would expect that, although it's only bcause Paulo Ferreira is injured... Still i rather see João Pereira than Alex, for instance.

Ricardo is still there as well, but that was expectable from Scolari..

Comments:
Jorge Ribeiro -> CRAP
Alex -> CRAP CRAP
RICARDO -> makes Ribeiro and Alex look good

Oh, and Quaresma is on the squad. Hopefully Scolari will do a Postiga on him.
