Say it ain't so Deco!



Deco has recently said that he will be retiring from international soccer after this summer's World Cup. The departure of our magical play maker will undoubtedly create a void in the heart of our midfield. He is easily one of the best number 10's of the current crop of active superstars, arguably the best when in inspired form. That being said, Portugal has some young and promising talent in Deco's position...

Who is Deco's heir apparent? I'd like to see Manuel Fernandes or Ruben Micael given this responsibility, or maybe even the both of them working together on the field at the same time. Who do you want to see assume the mantle of Portugal's midfield maestro?

  2. ah yes, if only we could turn back the hands of time, Rui Costa to me is the best number 10 of all time (along with Zidane of course), Rui Costa always looked like he was skating out there, so sliiiiiiick
