It’s a bit like that, the top teams in the Championship would struggle against the top 4 teams in the Dutch or Portuguese League but bellow that they would blow out a lot of teams, even more in Portugal than in the Netherlands I suppose.
Anyway...
Long term potential. Playing for current Palmeiras isn’t the same as playing for those Santos sides.
But I already mentioned at least give him 1 season to adapt, it’s not only jumping directly from Palmeiras to Europe, it’s going straight to...
Germany, France, England tier 1 and move Portugal to tier 2 but at the end of the day that won't matter much because it will depend on the conditions of the top players available and the decisions made regarding best 11 to approach a competition...

It wasn't only England who was playing with second...
I know it wasn't the best 11 but I struggle to see where that easy way to win will come. And it was the first game under a new coach by Brazil with some second lines also, and they had the better chances during the match.
But tbf with what I...
