vitor baia was horrible, what a joke of GK. He was good in Porto with mourinho but when he played at Barcelona he was one of the worst GK ever to play in the spanish league.
he is a legend and you can tell right away that there is a lot of hurt feelings when people talk about him after all he destroyed a lot of dreams playing for FC Porto. they hate him bc he was that good!
@@AiVaultGuyshut F up. He won 2 out of 3 trophies in the first season in barcelona. He was key player in cup winners cup victory. Than he had a awfull injury and almost never play again. Van der Sar suck in juventus. So, he was awfull for that????? Best portuguese GK ever. With him, we would never lost euro04
You know Rio knows game when from all the star players on that Portugal lineup he said "Sousa, i loved that player". Definitely one of the best DM of his generation. Too bad his injuries killed him when he was about to reach his prime. Still won back to back Champions Leagues with Juve and Dortmund. His absence was a massive hole in that portuguese generation as he had been one of the key Golden Generation players from the start and no one came even close to replace him. In fact, the DM position was one of the holes that team had and that IMO prevented them to compete even more seriously in 2000 and 2002.
Totally agree that paulo sousa was an amazing player but after him there was costinha as DM ( one of the 3 most important players in jose mourinho FC Porto that would win the champions league) so I disagree with the notion that there was a hole in that position in the next years. Not as good as sousa but still one of the best DM of Portugual since the 90's.
@@MrPorto4ever Costinha was nothing but an average player for this level. Comparing him to Paulo Sousa is heresy. Paulo Sousa was elected best foreigner in Italy when that league was by far the best in the world. He was a star player for the team who was n1 on earth. Costinha was nothing but an anonymous right back for Monaco who fitted well in Mourinho system. That's all. He was a nobody before and a nobody after. A system player who only did one thing which was cutting plays. Paulo Sousa was not only a fantastic DM but was extremely able at actual football. A true modern Italian 6. The DM position was never filled properly. Oceano, Petit, Vidigal, Costinha, Pedro Mendes, Raúl Meireles, Miguel Veloso etc. All were underwelming at DM and many of them weren't even true DM's but there was no one else. The first quality DM since Paulo Sousa, a true top player at the position, was Danilo when he excelled at Porto and was signed by PSG. And even then we need to like the pure Defensive style as we've seen him transform in a CB since those years.
A few years ago i was strolling alongside the chanell on Candem Town and there was this group of older lads with a pile of books asking everybody who was passing by to sign them and write something on those books. When they ask me where i was from and i told them i was from Portugal they immediatly said "Yes, Portugal, home of some great football players" and i thought to myself "Cristiano, here we go again"... To my surprise, they started talking about Baía, Figo, Chalana, Futre, João Pinto and some other great players of my youth, and it made me very happy that some of our greatest players were still known outside of Portugal so many years after they stoped playing
Love Vítor Baía and his hair. Love that Portugal 🇵🇹 squad. Sexy football. That Figo goal is one of the greatest goals of all time. And that 3-2 comeback win for Portugal 🇵🇹 one of most memorable. The bar in Bristol where I watched the match, England 🏴 fans were silenced after Figo's thunderbastard. And when Nuno Gomes scored the winner, people stood on top of the bar and cursed the name of Portugal for days on end. It was glorious.
@@BenFc356 No he doesn't. Ricardo is iconic, but he was never considered one of the best to us, he was insanely inconsistent, even in 2004 everyone was shocked how Baía was not called to the National team, after being considered the best GK in the World that year after winning the UCL with Porto. The best GKs of Portugal ever are Baía, Bento and Damas, Patrício also wrote his story on that top after that 2016 Euro, but that's it.
@@leomedeiros3933 I agree with you on that, Ricardo is the penalty expert but very flawed in open play, the Greece goal that won them the euros was all his fault. Baia was excellent in open play and Patricio’s legendary performance for Portugal in the final of euro 2016 along with his consistency earning the most caps for a goalkeeper in the selecao’s history earns him some recognition and surely he’d be among the world’s most recognized had he joined a big club sometime in his career.
@@leomedeiros3933 Ricardo still has accomplished more accolades than just the saved penalty without gloves, he got to be the best UEFA's GK a few years after Boavista made a wonder campaign by winning their club's single portuguese championship tittle, on which he made part of as well. Also Baia at the time got in the middle of the crossroad between Pinto da Costa's influence in the national team, and if I recall correctly there was a struggle to keep Porto's president incluences away from the National Team, and at that time the coach Scolari acted abruptly and accordingly. Vitor talks like he's 100% clueless but there were a few reasons, ultimately unfair for him.
@@BenFc356Concordo. O Baía fartou-se de comer frangos ao longo da sua carreira tb. O golo do Poborsky contra Portugal por exemplo foi culpa dele, pois nunca deveria estar tão fora da baliza

vitor baia was horrible, what a joke of GK. He was good in Porto with mourinho but when he played at Barcelona he was one of the worst GK ever to play in the spanish league.

Legend. I hear what he says about leadership, there were so many top guys in that 96 to 2004 generation. Figo,Costa, Sousa, Bento, Couto, another Costa along Couto. All top quality guys. Who deserved a trophy but we won't forget them.

Fair play on Rio Ferdinand he's always been one of my favourite football players and inviting Vitor Baía just makes me even happier as Vitor Baía is a legend not just for the Portuguese but domestically he's one of my heroes as he won the champions league representing my favourite football club FC PORTO 💙
@@weaponX14 he had signed a conditional agreement with Florentino and still took a long way before sign with Real Madrid. Also Baía was mentioning like he had already played for Real Madrid before Euro which is completely fine it was like 20 years ago 😅 just a small detail …
@@PauloFerreira-qd1ti he was a Madrid player at that point. was unveiled right after the Euro and im sure the rest of the team knew what happened at that point. hence the recollection from Baia.
Why do they say Poborsky's goal in Euro96 was great? I have nothing against 🇨🇿 and have disliked 🇵🇹 for a long time so I want to say it was a great goal I'm pleased he scored it and got through but it was flukey the way it ricochet off players when he ran through and Baia then went way too far out of his goal giving Poborsky an easy option to lob and also scooping it up like that is not as skillful nor pleasing on the eye as chipping it like Suker's goal that Euro's vs Denmark/Schmeichel. Poborsky even said he thought he scooped it too high at first.
Rio is a gentleman, that team had legendary players but it had no deep in the lateral defenders, that was a weak point. Baia was a great goalkeeper at his time, love from PT.❤
As portuguese, i ave no doubt whe would won Euro 04 if Baia was on goal. Ricardo was awfull in set pieces and cornerd. Also, he had no voice in defense. Vitor had play with all the defenders, in Porto, also with Beto in the national team, for severall years. Only Miguel he didn't play. But "donky" scolari screw us.

Everybody in Portugal understood why you didnt play in 2004 and you also understand, but because you re cocky you continue saying this, you played in the WC in 2002 when you didnt even deserve it and Ricardo was obviously the best keeper. You played that WC just because the manager was a Porto supporter (António Oliveira). You were a bad player in the dressing room, you were toxic and not even the best Portuguese Keeper at Euro 2004 (Porto didnt win the CL in 2004 because of you but inspite of you). You would not accept being Ricardo’s substitute so Scolari did the best thing after the shame of 2002, he cleared the dressing room of bad weeds.
Bro. Shut up. Baia was elected best GK in Europe that year and won the CL with magistral goakeping. He was by far the best GK in Portugal. And you know what? You lose the 2004 final because of a Ricardo blunder.
@@gabkoost you shut the f up. You re just a spoiled Porto fan, that forgot that without Ricardo you wouldn’t even have passed England in the Quarter Finals of 2004. Ricardo was number 1 at that time and Baia was to arrogant to go on the bench. Ij the World Cup 2002 we were humilliated because of Baia’s blunders. Baia was such a good keeper that he was kicked out pf Barcelona and ranked one of the worst keepers in Barca recent history, at his prime. Baia won because Porto won the Champions League that year due to the Costinha miracle and because they faced monsters like Lyon, Deportivo and Monaco. Nonetheless, Porto had a magnificent team insipite o Baia.

Rio never even played in the Euros, only legendary players who contributed to past Euros should be pundits and get to host programs like this. Micah Richard’s is another
It was essentially called the golden generation because of the U-20 World Championship victory over Brazil in the finals. USA 94 in the same group as Italy (tournament finalist). France 98 is in the same group as Germany. 02, several national teams were easily ahead of Portugal.
It was considered a golden generation by the Portuguese. And that was related to the group quality, youth World Cup titles and expectations, a lot of it based on a National feeling regarding this group of players. It had nothing to do with external views, regarding stats and what not. Just ask a portuguese or two about it and you will understand.
94 they were still too young, 98 was a failure yes but they had Germany to qualify, Rui Costa was sent off for “tekinf too long to walk off” as he was substituted. Semi final 2000, runners up 2004 and semi final of 2006. Not bad for a small country.
@Vera150607 USA were ahead of Portugal were they? They went 3-0 down to them and ultimately knocked out by them and likewise 2014 they got through again at Portugal's expense (I predicted the latter).
With all my respect to a legendary club like Porto FC (btw Madjer is one of my idols), playing for Real Madrid, Man U, Bayern or Barça is a fifferent challenge. The pressure is in another level. The same circunstances involve national teams like England or Brazil. Those shirts wheigh a loy
Rio Ferdinand is undoubtedly the most loved english player by Portuguese football fans.
Real gentleman and congrats for the show :)

For our reality and such a small country this was a golden generation. At the time we only qualified to 2 major competition wc 66 and euro 84.
It was considered a golden generation by the Portuguese. And that was related to the group quality, youth World Cup titles and expectations, a lot of it based on a National feeling regarding this group of players. It had nothing to do with external views, regarding stats and what not. Just ask a portuguese or two about it and you will understand.
94 they were still too young, 98 was a failure yes but they had Germany to qualify, Rui Costa was sent off for “tekinf too long to walk off” as he was substituted. Semi final 2000, runners up 2004 and semi final of 2006. Not bad for a small country.

USA were ahead of Portugal were they? They went 3-0 down to them and ultimately knocked out by them and likewise 2014 they got through again at Portugal's expense (I predicted the latter).
A disaster for Barça. Too soft for the highest level
Too soft for the highest level ? That's why he won the 2004 CL with FC Porto !
With all my respect to a legendary club like Porto FC (btw Madjer is one of my idols), playing for Real Madrid, Man U, Bayern or Barça is a fifferent challenge. The pressure is in another level.
The same circunstances involve national teams like England or Brazil. Those shirts wheigh a loy
One more thing. The 2004 CL was not the hardest edition to win. Take a look at the round of 16
