BBC wrote:Manchester United assistant boss Carlos Queiroz has been appointed as the new coach of Portugal.

The 55-year-old, who had a previous spell in charge of Portugal in the 1990s, has signed a four-year contract to succeed Luiz Felipe Scolari.

Now is it just me or has Queiroz not really done enough in the past to justify an international job like Portugal. Have they fallen for the classic British con, he worked with Fergie so he maust be good a la McClaren, Robson, Kidd, etc.
