I like the squad, but was surprised by a few things.
Silvio getting his first call up to the squad. The Braga right back is in fine form this season, and the fact that he can play in the left as well is a plus.
I was surprised however that Evaldo was not called up, he could be a good alternative to Fabio Coentrao.
With Simao announcing his retirement from International soccer, I figured that Ricardo Quaresma would walk right into the team, considering his fine form with his new club. However he was called up as an alternative choice if someone gets injured. With Ronaldo and Varela getting injured, Quaresma and former teammate Yanick were called up.
Some were left wondering why Vieirinha did not get called up, as he is playing really well and deserves a call up. Some people in Greece consider him to be the best player in the Greek League.
Paulo Machado gets his first call as well, the Toulouse player is in fine form in the French League, and he can play several positions in midfield, he is a terrific player who deserves a move to a bigger club, I think he would have been perfect to replace Ramires at Benfica, but that is an entirely different matter.
Good luck to my countrymen, play well and win..............
