Tomorrow there will be the press conference where Carlos Queiroz will be presented as the new Portugal manager. His contract is until 2012 and the main objective is to qualify Portugal for the 2010 World Cup.
Queiroz arrived in Lisbon, Portugal yesterday, July 14th. Some Portuguese press went to receive him and ask him questions. Queiroz stood firm and said that he won't say anything until tomorrow.
He also thanked the reporters present for having come at a late hour to receive him and to understand that he will do what was agreed to, speak at the press conference.
I think he'll say something new. He's going to say he's proud of taking the job. He plans to qualify Portugal for the 2010 world cup. He might also downplay expectations.

I have no doubt that Queiroz will achieve that objective of qualifying for the World Cup.
For me, the question is, will he get Portugal to the FINAL of the 2010 world cup. Qualifying won't be that hard. I don't think the teams in the same group will be that tough.
- Do you think Queiroz will qualify Portugal for the 2010 World Cup? I think so.
