Can anyone explain to me why we only have one decent left footed player on the Portuguese select team???
It seems to me that our best left wing was a right footed player who got injured-Simao. Our next best left winger is Rui Jorge. I know Figo and Conceicao can both play there, but asking them to generate power from their left foot is kind of like asking a Ferrari sports car to go off-dirt racing.
It seems that the second best Portuguese player in form for the left side is none other than DANI!
I know, I know! He's supposedly a cancer to any team. He's a playboy who's only responsibility is to himself. He couldn't last in any team. He's a drunk.

But Paulo Futre somehow has gotten inside his head. He's has had a career year at Atletico. They absolutely love the guy. He has been one of the few vital cogs that has lifted Atletico to the Primera. Much like Batistuta did with Fiorentina. Perhaps he has been humbled enough and is worth a shot. God knows the left side of our National Team needs a player of his artistic skill and powerful left shot.
Whatta ya say?
