Good article about the Portugal manager. Inspired by an English manager.

Great line:
Santos wanted to train at eight o’clock in the mornings but he was told by a players’ delegation that it would be impossible because of the traffic. “So, I changed it to 7am, saying that there ought to be no traffic at that time,” Santos says. “Then, they told me that they preferred 8am.”

I'm hoping for a Portugal win. Come on Ronnie.

Vas-tu futre alors!

(Bengals will correct me if my French grammar is incorrect)
 
I'm going Portugal purely because I've got them in the sweepstake. Otherwise I'm pretty neutral on who wins.

Went to a Brazilian bbq yesterday, boy they really know how to do meat, they also hate the Portuguese so it's France for them and France for me.
