Portugal assing their way through this euro champs. Had a cruisy group and they couldn't win a game in it and went nearly 200 minutes without scoring. Now have got a cruisy knock out draw and only went through in extra time and penalties. If Wales/Gareth Bale beat Belgium it would surely be the most kissed on the dick run to the final a team has had in a major football tournament in a long time.

Actually I quite like Portugal, but their captain is one of the great dickheads of our time. So until he ****s off they can **** off.
why is Ronaldo one of the great dickheads of our time?

I thought they’d won the Euros the way they celebrated at the end. It was unbelievable. When they don’t try to play and just defend, defend, defend, this in my opinion shows a small mentality and they are not going to do anything in the competition.

If everyone was at my level, maybe we would be top.

And that's just the last few months. There's years of arrogance in both words and acts on the pitch that we could go through but I don't get paid to post on BigFooty.

He's arrogant when it comes to the game but he's overall a good bloke. I don't really see much wrong with what he said anyway, I know we expect and respect humility and sportsmanship above all else but he's just telling it like it is really and I think it's refreshing. LeBron had no qualms about saying "I'm the best player in the world" after game 7 and nobody could disagree.

yes but some people don't sit up straight either. I'm 189cm and i've seen people a good foot shorter than me take over half the leg room available. It's just general lack of consideration for anyone else using public transport that is the issue
ive never agreed with the current configuration of our trains (melb). sitting face to face with others, and a narrow walkway is not conducive to conform (coming from one who doesnt take the train).

for mine, this is better

LeBron is a pretty solid dick himself.

But there is a bit of a difference between talking yourself up (arrogant, but can be passable) and putting others down, especially your own team mates.

Both of them have an enormous amount of pressure put on them. That second quote from Cristiano you had was only a partial quote and a response to a question suggesting that Real were losing because he was underperforming. This is always the case, if he plays 1% below his best and Real lose, the media and fans will be all over him. I can understand him getting a bit snippy.

He doesn't seem to have a bad relationship with any of his teammates though really. He's an alright dude.
