I thought that someone wouldve said something about this by now since the call up was released yesterday but Ronnie is finally back in the seleccao!!! Regardless of his current form, this news is exciting to me because R10 just equals awesomeness to me so here's to him. I truly hope he can find his way into the the 2014 WC squad, even if its a longshot. And here's the full squad set to go vs. England (not sure if already posted):


Goalkeepers
Julio Cesar - QPR
Diego Alves - Valencia

Defenders
Dante - Bayern
David Luiz - Chelsea
Miranda - Atletico Madrid
Leandro Castan - Roma
Adriano - Barcelona
Daniel Alves - Barcelona
Felipe Luís - Atlético de Madrid

Midfielders
Arouca - Santos
Hernanes - Lazio
Ramires - Chelsea
Oscar - Chelsea
Lucas - PSG
Paulinho - Corinthians

Strikers
Fred - Fluminense
Hulk - Zenit
Neymar - Santos
Ronaldinho Gaúcho - Atletico-MG
Luis Fabiano - São Paulo

If I were Big Phil:

------------Alves------------
Dani---Dante---Adriano--Filipe
---Ramires--Luiz--Paulinho----
------------Oscar------------
---Ronaldinho----Neymar------

No Thiago Silva, No Pato , No Kaka, No Marcelo, No weak very weak.

A bit surprised that Miranda is there,especially considering Thigo Silva isn't but Filipe Luis fully deserves his place.So does Adriano.

No Marquinhos??

Honestly I think that Brazil can cope without Pato & Kaka ATM. And is Marcelo back from injury yet?

Either way, like worms had already posted, they need some more shakhtar! Sure ukraine is not the biggest league but Brazil can afford to mix it up with the shakhtar players for sure.

Oh, no, not again.

Yeh, Marcelo's back from injury, however he hasn't played much.

Not enough penetration upfront imo. Lacking allot in the power department, won't be suprised if the England backline bullies them into submission.

Ronaldinho to add more experience to the young squad

We already discussed the call up on the scolari thread.And of course some players are injured bar kaka

Perhaps. But RONALDINHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brazil is looking very strong for 2014. A team like this...


...on home soil could be deadly.

No Leiva I hope they lose

Marcelo just came back from injury, Thiago Silva is injured, and Pato is probably injured. You guys should complain about players who are actually available.

Lucas has only been playing for what? Two months? Has he regained his form from last year?

I guess dede hasn't been doing too well lately

luis fabiano is the more shocking call up for me. i thought he retired.

Not sure if serious.. What has he done to even be considered for a call-up?

Dinho up front?

Is Robinho even good anymore lol?

yes no Marquinhos

No Brazil you cant pull of Argentine again , Burdisso last year was a terrible memory mixture of no defenders+ Luis Enrique face

ok i got caught up in my nightmare again , but as i do missed that smiley face of Ronaldinho , couldn't they use someone like coutinho or even Roberto firmino instead?

Robinho is still playing football?

And isn't Ronaldinho fat now?

He's actually been hampered with injury. His form has dipped due to his major injuries last season, but recently he's looked back to normal shutting down Ajax in their recent friendly against Vasco.

I see. It'd be great to see him bossing again. I love watching defenders who can also be a threat at goal
