Well we’ve at least won a World Cup and had some decent runs down the years. Aside from in Euro 96 and 21 we’ve been a disaster in the Euros. Knocked out at the group stage in 1980, 1988, 1992 and 2000, finishing bottom of the group twice. Failed to qualify in 1984 and 2008 and won only one knockout game that wasn’t held in England ever (4-0 vs Ukraine in Rome).

Barely a top 10 European NT, bit shocking for a country with England’s means and culture.

Crazy stat I saw the other day: if you subtract London, the GDP of the rest of England is lower than the poorest US state

The most annoying thing is that people kept saying “bring it home” but they never won the Euro before

I totally get your sentiment, but Croatia having constantly been as good as they have with the number of inhabitants is definitely not the norm.

Considering Portugal were shit until 96, it’s quite a good result

We weren’t that shit, qualifying was harsher than it is now and we were unlucky a few times.

You were shit compared to now. You only qualified twice to the world cup prior to 2002 and qualified to every WC since then.

People on this sub would have you believe that we only became good because of Ronaldo

Maybe not because of but certainly improved since/during. He was already there in 96 I believe, and has been ever since.

Yes, that’s right. But the reason we became good was not Ronaldo

I mean… 26/39 games here had Ronaldo in the squad. Portugal did well in the 84 and 00 euros though.

In ‘04 CR7 was a secondary player. Portugal would be one of the favorites with or without him especially considering it was a home turf

We have 19 wins and only 2 of those were after winning against Czechia in the 2012 QFs

It’s not that we were just shit. It’s also that it was harder to qualify. Between 1960 and 1992, only 8 or less teams qualified. The enlargement of the tournament allowed us to participate more times.
