Portugal beat Denmark by 2 in Euro 2012 qualifying in a game where Ronaldo and Nani owned. Ronaldo and Nani with 2 were the goal scorers. The draw against Cyprus was an embarassment and was the beginning of the end of Queiroz. Not to metion Ronaldo didn't play in that Cyprus match. It's no surprise to me that under the Queiroz regime, Portugal had a bad home draw to Cyprus and a loss to Norway. Under Bento, Portugal have won 3 in a row and have put themselves in a tie for first place in their group. Queiroz was a cancer.
But if diane is arguing that Messi has been bad for Argentina, but is using Ronaldo as the next best, he might need to check Ronaldo out while representing Portugal. He hasn't been great, not by any stretch. Not for awhile at least.
Anything positive I say about Ronaldo will be seen as me wearing rose colored glasses and me being a blatant homer, so I'll stay out of this discussion as much as I can.
