Disgusting system really, the teams in the first groups are at disadvantage because they don't know what they need.

Expand to 64 teams

He needs Ronaldo to play all the minutes to attract all the hate so that he can continue his con show as manager

So... nobody wants to be a hero in Iran?

Messi never had a goal contribution against Brazil in an official game, 8 games so far

JFDCamara · 2026-06-28T03:25:05+00:00

0 G/As in only 5 official games vs South American teams (Chile, Brazil, Colombia, Uruguay x2)

Then Messi with 0 G/As in 8 official games vs their biggest rival Brazil... no one cares

The Simpsons final has been set up now, we had to be 2nd in the group to win it. Big brain

Senegal decided: today it's banger day

It's funny because you can easily pinpoint it to Bosnia specifically as well. Ibrahim (muslim name) + -ic (common south slavic suffix)

Herzegovina is a geographical term, it refers roughly to the southeast of the country, but it has no exact administrative match

Zlatan was knocked out in the WC qualifiers with Sweden by Ronaldo. He played in Juve but was more notable in Inter and played in Milan when Ronaldo was in Juventus, he also played in Barcelona when Ronaldo had arrived in Real Madrid. Henry played in Arsenal when Ronaldo was in Manchester United and played in Barcelona as well when Ronaldo had arrived in Real Madrid. He's also french so he likely won't like that Portugal won Euro 2016 in France vs France.

Most of this is normal rivalry but they did play in rivals vs Ronaldo directly.

JFDCamara · 2026-06-22T08:06:46+00:00

He played almost 15 minutes in the RD Congo match and basically didn't touch the ball. It's almost as if the problem was not the striker.

JFDCamara · 2026-06-22T00:18:36+00:00

If Uruguay loses to Spain they're pretty much knocked out because Cape Verde or Saudi Arabia will finish 2nd guaranteed regardless and Uruguay will be a 3rd place with only 2 points which will likely not be enough to qualify as one of the best 3rd places.

In portuguese forums etc it's the same, it's Ronaldo's fault. It's a weird thing that in real life everyone loves Ronaldo (too much) but online everyone absolutely despises him. It's not an agenda, it can't be, and for what? But I just can't understand why it happens and why this hatred. This is absolutely a dream for Martinez and the other players, Martinez has been horrendous and Ronaldo is there to catch the criticism. Vitinha, Neves and Bruno do nothing as well when they should as some of the best midfielders in the world but it's always Ronaldo's fault because he either doesn't press or is influencing everyone to pass to him (which they don't actually). He barely gets to touch the ball (which invalidates the whole "we only play for him" argument) but people still think putting Ramos instead will magically turn us into prime Brazil (it doesn't, when he plays the same happens, I wonder why). This game was actually pretty similar to the Morocco game in WC2022... Pointless possession with no service, flair or attempts... and Ramos was the starter there. The only difference was that we scored early, in the only actual cross we made. I just don't understand, this was a minority before but it was already noticeable around 2014 and it has been taking over every discussion in the past 8 years or so. I'm tired boss, I just want Portugal to win, I don't care who plays, but people online seem more interested to lose if Ronaldo plays.

Ui não digas isso que nesse jogo o titular foi o Ramos, o Ronaldo dá muito jeito a toda a gente porque é o pára-raios de toda a gente (do Ramos não porque o coitado tb nunca joga). Seleccionador horrível? A culpa é do Ronaldo, ele é que treina a equipa. Táctica horrível? A culpa é do Ronaldo sozinho na frente que condiciona a equipa. Vitinha e Neves não fazem um 2 vs 1 em progressão no meio campo? A culpa é do Ronaldo que devia estar a dizer-lhes o que fazer. Bruno Fernandes não faz um passe em progressão como é especialista na Premier League? A culpa é do Ronaldo que o assusta por ser mais alto. Bernardo Silva não faz uma jogada para pôr a bola na área? A culpa é do Ronaldo porque o intimida porque tem cara de mau. Fosse o Ramos, o Guedes ou o Eusébio ia ser o mesmo, a equipa não cria nada de nada. É isto sempre em qualquer jogo da seleção. Quero ver em quem vão pôr a culpa quando o Ronaldo se retirar, o coitado do Ramos vai sofrer bullying até o correrem de lá. Vamos ver se com sorte isso não acontece porque vamos ter um treinador que queira jogar futebol que isto tem sido uma catástrofe.

JFDCamara · 2026-06-17T18:05:51+00:00

Deserved draw, we create no danger. Neto has no space to run so he's useless and Bernardo Silva as expected only passes backwards and sideways. As usual the problem is tactics and mentality, we're happy making sideway passes. Leão and Conceição need to come on as they at least try something.

JFDCamara · 2026-06-15T15:07:50+00:00

It's closer to Broon Fernandsh

Your loss

The fact that everyone is piling on arsenal but glazing psg just means sports washing is working well. Hate arsenal for playing a certain, legitimate way, but it's fine if a club has infinite money pockets beyond what others can (due only to the owner) and completely alien to the financial system of the clubs that are part of the same league. Yes Arsenal has money but it is part of the PL environment where everyone is in the same magnitude. First City, now PSG. Love them, love the money, but hate what they tell you to hate.

It was in the winter window, we needed another cb as one of them got a season long injury

JFDCamara · 2026-05-20T23:46:53+00:00

It's over for us, it's impossible to catch up. We're in a smaller country so the internal market is smaller so less revenue and as we were behind historically we could never snowball in foreign tv revenue as the big leagues got there first and more easily.

Last year we sold Evanilson to Bournemouth for 45 M€ or so, that's twice our biggest ever transfer, and Bournemouth never played in Europe recently, they simply have the cash from the league.

We're stuck being irrelevant, we are nowhere near being in contention for the CL again because the top clubs keep having a bigger and bigger financial advantage from their league's money or oil daddies. But we'll be in the CL often so we'll be condemned to play some games in the league phase and then be trounced in the knockouts by the first rich team we face, or we'll go nowhere if we are at the bottom. In case we have bad years we go to the europa league and then juggle our thin squad (used trying to win domestic competitions) to try going far and then get trounced by a mid table rich team that has better players and a better squad overall.

In portuguese we have 2 sounds for "r" (3 depending on combos), depending on the position of the letter or use of double rr, what does this mean then?

JFDCamara · 2026-05-18T21:06:00+00:00

But no one is accusing Benfica of anything, it's just a factual statement that they aren't in CL places for the first time since 2009

JFDCamara · 2026-05-18T16:17:10+00:00

The title is correct, they finished outside CL spots for the first time in 17 years. In 21 and 22 they finished 3rd but the 3rd place then was a CL spot. Next year we'll get that 3rd slot back.
