Re: [國家] Portugal part company with Queiroz
有提到目前的幾個可能人選@@~~~
LISBON, Sept 10 (Reuters) -
Former Sporting coach Paulo Bento is seen as
favourite to replace the sacked Carlos Queiroz as Portugal’s national coach
and salvage the side’s Euro 2012 qualifying campaign following a dismal
start.
The Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) fired Queiroz on Thursday in the
wake of his six-month ban for insulting anti-doping agents and has vowed to
replace him before next month’s qualifiers at home to Denmark and away to
Iceland.
Bento has denied any contact with the FPF so far, but has not distanced
himself from the job and is seen by the local media as the strongest
candidate as he is not currently coaching at club level and could start
immediately.
The coach resigned from Sporting in November last year after a weak start to
the season. That followed four seasons in which he guided the Lisbon club to
consecutive runner-up spots.
“He did a great job with limited resources at Sporting and knows the
national setup well, having been an important player for Portugal,” former
international Joao Alves, who coached Bento at Amadora, told Reuters.
“Bento has the right profile and his personality is well-suited to the job,”
he added.
Bento, 41, was a defensive midfielder for Benfica and Sporting and earned 35
caps before going into coaching.
Portugal are second from bottom of Group H with one point from their first
two qualifiers having lost 1-0 in Norway on Tuesday following a 4-4 draw at
home to Cyprus last week.
Alves said that given this difficult context, the FPF should choose a coach
familiar with Portuguese football, a view echoed my most Portuguese media
commentators and coaches even though some reports mentioned Spaniard Luis
Aragones and Mexican Javier Aguirre as potential candidates.
“I would like Luis (Aragones) to be the coach for his personality, his
quality and his experience, but my personal conviction is that national teams
are for the players and the coaches of that country, I would prefer a
Portuguese,” the country’s most famous coach, Jose Mourinho, told reporters.
Mourinho, now at Real Madrid, has said he would only like to be a Portugal
coach years from now.
Another Portuguese coach reportedly being considered for the job is Humberto
Coelho, who guided the national side to the semi-finals at Euro 2000, and who
is also currently unemployed.
“Obviously he is one of the options, with the advantage of already having
done the job before,” said Joao Alves, who played with Coelho at Benfica for
several years.
