1 / 3

Former Manchester United striker Louis Saha believes Portugal should bench Cristiano Ronaldo following a lacklustre opening match. Saha says Ronaldo’s drive to break records and compete with younger stars like Haaland and Mbappé has clouded manager Roberto Martinez’s tactics. He feels the captain’s presence on the pitch may slow down Portugal’s high-tempo pressing game. While praising Ronaldo’s fitness at 41, Saha stresses that tactical flexibility is vital. He urges Martinez to make timely changes to keep the team’s energy levels at their peak.
