I'm not to sure what Figo and Toni are doing in that squad. Figo has looked like an old man who can barely run and his only real asset has been his long range passing. Toni has been a big disappointment and his only real achievement scoring 2 against Ukraine.

lol

Only one englishman....only one brazilian.....

Toni was don one. Figo was the heart of Portugal when Deco wasnt about.

EDIT: lets wait till 'Fifa's waste-of-space squad of the tournament' comes out

[arsham]

overall, it's a good selection,
it reflects the players' perfomances!

[nosferatu]

I agree, Torres is much more deserving than say Toni....he should just go back to being a gangsta. I guess FIFA only wanted players that made it to the latter rounds.

[ird28]

toni was one of the best players in the tournament. without any doubt the best striker

[persianballer]

No C.Ronaldo

[Darvish11]

im not an england fan AT ALL, but i think Joe Cole belongs on that list

[PersianMadrid7]

No C.Ronaldo

he should join the Portoguese diving squad for the olympics.

[Kaveh Ahangar]

he should join the Portoguese diving squad for the olympics.

Amen. His antics were nothing short of disgraceful.

[Rooz]

where is christiano ronaldo??
where is deco and miguel
and where is riquelme

evidently not on hte list.

reasons:

Ronaldo - fifa dont like divers
deco, miguel - both sent off....miguel???????? why the f would you want him?

totti shouldnt be on the list, he was awful overall. made a few good passes against germany, knocked out the ozzy bastards.
