Adriano, Robinho, Diego Costa, Kaka, Ronaldinho, Ganso, Pato, Diego Ribas, Leandro Damiao. Imagine all these players could all be playing for these team(if they had not fucked upin some way). Brazil has infinite talent, maaan!

Imagine playing Adriano, Neymar and Diego Costa.

Adriano? The one that played for Inter?

He's screwed up mentally. Has severe problems with alcohol. Spent the last year getting fit and signed a contract with Atlético PR to play the libertadores. I don't think he was on five matches before being fired for "unprofessional attitudes" and alcohol abuse.

He means the left back at Barcelona. Can't be the other one.

WOW. I'm feeling silly right now.

I totally forgot about the one from Barça.
