"It could have resolved with Joãor Félix like false 9", gives like solution.

Mateus Continued his plea ensuring that "I do not have any doubt that Ronaldo is special and need to be managed of another way, but the fact that no could him give rest in a party that was almost only says a lot of the difficulties that will have the seleccionador to impose if it needs to do it when it was more serious. The situation of Ronaldo always will bring the image of Eden Hazard dragging the feet in Qatar until the current seleccionador Portuguese wake up at last, perhaps too late.

Anybody has to be intocable and all the places have to be in the scales", argued, in addition to adding that Cristiano removes him solutions to the team and conditions him too much.
