I can't believe what I'm hearing. This is possibly a better squad than in 2004 & 2006? This is a squad with flashes of world class in it (i.e. Ronaldo, Nani, Pepe, Moutinho, Coentrao) but is also littered with mediocrity (i.e. Postiga/Almeida, Miguel Veloso, Joao Pereira, Rui Patricio, and I won't even begin to mention the subpar players on our bench). The only thing we can hope for is that Bento somehow gets them to coelesce into a phenomenal team and that's what carries us past teams that are better than us from an individual standpoint (both Germany & Netherlands). This could be the worst team we've fielded since the team that failed to qualify for the 94 world cup, but at least that team had future prospects like Figo, Rui Costa, Conceicao and the rest of the golden generation.
