Rui Moreira slams Portugal: “Roberto Martínez’s choices are absurd”

Rui Moreira, former president of the Porto City Council, criticized the performance in Ireland vs Portugal. In a message posted on his Facebook page, the former mayor directed harsh words at Roberto Martínez:

«The coach's choices are absurd. Do we still have time to form a team? Or will we insist on a failed model?» he questioned. «The problem with the Portuguese team is not qualifying for the World Cup. The drama is that, once there, we will certainly be humiliated», he added.

Rui Moreira, who was part of Pedro Proença's list for the FPF Superior Council, emphasizes that «we need to choose the best» and that «a game model is necessary», concluding: «There can't be reserved spots. With these players, it's hard to do worse. It's clear to everyone».
