'With Queiroz in the Euro 2008, Portugal could have gone farther" said Gil, former Sub-20 player

This morning I was watching this video A defesa de Queiroz na Selecção. I already want to know who the next Portugal manager is. I can't stand the wait.

Either Zico or Queiroz will be the next manager.

They interviewed Gil, a former player of Portugal sub-20. So who the heck is he?

17 years ago, Gil was in the Portugal sub-20 team that won the world cup. The manager at the time: Carlos Queiroz. Now Gil is a coach the Man United youth teaching kids 6 to 8 years old.

He had very interesting things to say in favor of Queiroz for Portugal manager.

-- "Queiroz knows Portuguese soccer. Nice past with the Portugal national team. I think Portugal has a lot to gain with him."

-- "No disrespect to the Portugal manager in the Euro 2008 but I think with Queiroz in the team with this Euro, with th 4-3-3- Nani, Quaremsa, Cristiano Ronaldo, up front. The triangle."

- What did you think of his statements? Do you think Queiroz is the best candidate so far for the Portugal manager?
