Or something like that... Fact is they got Pelé and I hope the kid makes it... Sit and watch… 8)

I'd be happy seeing Moutinho, Martins, or Mendes in there instead of who I have. As always, we have a plethora of options in mid so it doesn't really matter to me as long as Petit and Tiago are not around (PS Did you hear about Tiago locking the Juventus president in the bathroom????) I really want to see Yannick in this game. Plain and simple, the kid needs to play. I wouldn't seeing more of Hugo b/c he could probably get a goal and maybe boost his confidence. Also, Danny is on a tear so he needs to get in this game. A question I'd like to pose to everyone: What are we going to do once Ronaldo and Quaresma come back? If I were playing this game on FIFA I’d go:
Quim
Bosingwa-Carvalho-Pepe-Antunes
Maniche
Nani-Deco-Simao
Yannick-Danny

I´d just place Danny in the middle rather than Nani. :-) Danny´s been playing great and so has Pedro Mendes - just scored in the scotish derby and was man of the match. But I believe Queiroz will put a more conservative midfield than Mendes already. So, your guess is as good as mine. Not too sure whether he´ll start with Maniche though. He´s tried Carlos Martins, so who knows... We shouldn´t forget Deco + Maniche + Pedro Mendes won the champs together in FC Porto´s midfield... I think he´ll start with a striker, cos Danny all alone up front, dunno... Anyway, don´t let yourself be fooled by Malta - it´s always difficult to leave there with points... And 3 days later, Denmark... Then the midfield and defense must be like clockwork, but we all know it won´t... ;-) Who knows, maybe we´ll even see a 4-4-2 with Danny + striker if he subs Deco... I´d love to see Yannick up front together with Danny, but I´m not sure if he´s ready. Anyway, right now anything sounds like a better option than Nuno Gomes or Almeida... Almeida could be good to wear down the defense even if he doesn´t score, which would not be too surprising... At the end of the day, PT ALL THE WAY!!! FORÇA! Not, you´re not out of your mind.
