Jo doing what comes naturally...

[conkers]

I'm sort of getting how Brazillian players work now...they slog their guts out to rise from the favellas by becoming extremely skillful...eventually levitatating themselves to the top clubs in the world and salaries to match...then they completely take their foot off the gas...job done in their eyes

look at the facts(juninho aside)

Ronaldinho
Real Ronaldo
Jo
and although not a party animal Robinho

All mercurial talents completely wasted at the top of their games

Romario
Bebeto
Leonardo
Fred
Adriano
Vagner Love
Hulk
Denilson (the original one not Arsenal one)

the list is endless, I'm beginning to think Brazilians are born fuckwits.
No doubt someone will pop up now and say they are just all misunderstood and need a cuddle or something equally stupid.

The only ones I can agree with there are Adriano and Denilson.What have the others done wrong? But it is strange how so many seem to lose it so young

What did Romario do wrong? He was the worst of the lot

Edmundo too. And that one Boro paid 12m for who couldnt be arsed then buggered off to Qatar! Oh and Jardel who put on about 10 stone

Gilberto Silva was good though and Alex

Alvez...The one Sven nearly bought

[Curlie]

Just don't know how privileged they are, some of these dicks.
Really pisses me off when so many of these guys are taken from their ordinary and in some cases, less than ordinary lives and end up making cunts of themselves and us as well, with their two fingered, "I'm Billy Big balls now, fuck you," behaviour.
Oh, what I would have given for the chance.

[Ted Hughes]

Anyone remember the 1st Brazilian to play in the PL, Mirandinha at Newcastle? He actually did ok but then he was gone & I never quite found out why or what happened.

Hulk has been banned for about 3 months I think, Vagner Love was recently filmed at a party in the company of drug dealers and people walking around with AK47's and grenade launchers, Fred was one of the best talents in Europe at Lyon but he got fucked off back to Brazil because of his Jo-like behaviour, Bebeto and Romario were just mad fuclers. Extremely talented, but definitely twats.

[Dunne's Half-Time Pint]

I don't know what the criteria for "wasted talent" is if Romario and Ronaldo qualify... the star that burns brightest and all that.

[bobadji]

Romario - if 55 goals in 70 odd games for Brazil is a wasted talent, City need to get signing some wasted talents.

should probably have quoted me to be honest - etiquette and that - i'm sort of a big hitter round these parts yeah, top table at the lodge as it were.

Just think he could have got even more out of his career. He only had 2 seasons at a top club
