Ally McCoist thinks Cristiano Ronaldo should be dropped by Portugal manager Roberto Martinez.
Despite being the world's highest international goalscorer, entering his 11th major tournament for Portugal, the 39-year-old is yet to register a goal at Euro 2024. While he is yet to get on the scoresheet, he did selflessly assist Bruno Fernandes with a clear shot at goal during Portugal's comfortable 3-0 victory against Turkey.
Paris Saint-Germain striker Goncalo Ramos and Barcelona's Joao Felix would be the obvious replacements to fill the void if the Manchester United legend was to be substituted. According to McCoist, who became Scotland's only representative in Germany after Steve Clarke's side failed to progress into the knockout stages, Portugal might improve if Martinez resorts to another forward option.

In conversation with talkSPORT Bet, 61-year-old McCoist said: "I'm not so sure that Cristiano Ronaldo should be starting every game for Portugal. That's something Roberto Martinez needs to take a look at.
"However, it's remarkable and fantastic what his team-mates from over the years say about him. His work ethic is a perfect example for any young player coming through.
