“In front, I don’t need to know, it’s Cristiano of course. You have Deco to give the balls to Cristiano and then you have Cristiano to score.”
Apart from Ronaldo, Fernandes opted to go with two former Chelsea stars, with Deco getting the nod as the playmaker. Ricardo Carvalho was selected as the only defender in the side.
In goal, Fernandes opted for Wolves star Rui Patricio, while another Wolves player, Joao Moutinho, got the nod as the deep-lying midfielder.
