🚨🎙️ Peter Schmeichel on Roberto Martínez:
"Roberto Martínez has to be one of the most disappointing managers at this World Cup so far. He wasted Belgium's golden generation, and now it feels like the same thing is happening with Portugal. 🇵🇹😩
How do you leave players like João Félix and Rafael Leão on the bench while sticking with a system that clearly isn't working? Portugal have too much attacking talent to look this predictable and cautious.
His tactics are far too conservative. The attack lacks creativity, the midfield often looks disconnected, and his substitutions usually come too late to change the game.
The 1-1 draw against DR Congo should be a serious warning. Portugal have one of the strongest squads in the tournament, but they're playing nowhere near their potential. If things don't change quickly, Portugal could waste another golden opportunity to win the World Cup." 🇵🇹💔
Roberto Martinez is set to step down as Portugal's manager at the end of the World Cup 🚨
It’s understood Jose Mourinho had verbal agreement in place to take over Portugal after this World Cup before being offered the Real Madrid job.
