  1. 1) Whenever you want B. No, seriously. Whenever you have time we can do it.2) My father is a fanatical Palmeiras fan. He was actually part of the board for a few years (conselheiro, in portuguese). I've inherited that passion from him I guess. Plus the fact in the 90s we had absolute geniuses playing for us: Rivaldo, Evair, Roberto Carlos, Cafu, Djalminha, Junior, Alex, Cesar Sampaio, etc. Not even Chelsea have seen some many great players in a period of 8-9 years like Palmeiras did in the 90s. I used to be their number one fan. Like, I'd go to every home game plus some close away fixtures. In 2009 or 2010 (when we were suppose to win the league and magically blew it) I went to 33 matches (I still have all the tickets). I used to know absolutely everything about the club, even the inside info nobody usually know. I was really fixated with everything related to Verdão! However, I mostly dont care about it now. I've seen too much of the dirty stuff that goes behind Brazilian football to keep my love intact... 3) Whenever you are prepared to lose, lol. I've return to train regurlarly now that I live in Guaratingueta and my Uni has some nice saibro pitches!!! 4) Shaw, Gundogan/Vidal and Costa (not that I want him in particular, but he is the best striker available). We dont need anything more than that! Out: Cole, Mikel, Romeu, Marin, Moses, Torres, Eto'o and Ba. I dont think we NEED to sell Luiz now. I'd give him another season. Only if a ridiculously high offer comes to us... 5) Hahaha, you dont have to learn how to drink. I actually wish I wasnt so addicted to alcohool like I am! Btw, I am living on a "republica" now. You can imagine how crazy things are. Last week I had 4 parties in 5 days, lol. I passed out in all four of them kkkkk! 6) I'd had loved to have trained harder to become a professional tennis player. But I guess I am happy where I am either way! Other than that nothing, really. 7) Living room. Bedroom is fucking boring!
  2. You ddnt just post a picture of you "eating" a banana, did you?
  3. 1. Since it is a capitol J, yes. 2. Yes, because I wouldnt want to jack off an elephant. Especially for my uncle (that filthy bastard).
  4. Victor Dani Alves - T.Silva - David Luiz - Marcelo Fernandinho - Luiz Gustavo Hulk - Oscar - Neymar Fred
  5. I hate samba and I hate it even more when people diminish our culture to only that! So, to answer your question...Football!How am I going to do answer that...I dont know. I think it will be pretty much the same. We will continue to advance and get richer and richer (have you looked at the amount of resources Brazil has?), but with the way things are going there is still going to have huge inequality. I mean, if we dont radically change the way we think we will never get to the level of Norway, South Korea, Sweden, etc. If people dont realize they have to think collectively and not just individually, we will never solve things like corruption, poverty, etc. Otherwise, the country will obviously grow, but only a portion of itwill trully see the posiive reflections of this growth! If we dont learn to think collectively, many will remain absolutely marginalised!
  6. I'm from Sao Paulo, Brazil. I'd love to visit Dubai. It is so different and luxurious. I would love to try to understand how things work in the rich part of Middles East a little bit more...
  7. Does "go fuck yourself" count?
  8. Lol, really? I looked on twitter and everyone was going mad. Now it is in every sports news website!Didnt even bother to check the sources...
  9. England win! The new generation has definitely arrived! 2018 WC champions for sure! Nobody will even come close!!!
  10. Geeez, absurdly strong rummours popping around almost every single media outlet that David Luiz will sign with PSG!
  11. Not really! It was not like he played Pepe in the midfield once in a while or whatever. It was just in that series of 4-5 matches against Barcelona in 2011-12 when he was trying to stop Messi...
  12. Because some people like it, maybe? Personaly I find the collar much better...
  13. To be fair, I dont think Mou used Luiz in midfield because he wanted to (per se). I think the fact he used him out of position so much shows two things. One that Cahill and JT duo were so immense that he tried to change it at least as possible and that Luiz's performances werent impressing him. Two that he simply doesnt trust any of our back up DMs and preferred a CB playing there than Mikel or whatever! In factc, I dont recall Jose utilizing Luiz as a DM when he had the full squad at his disposal. It was more like desperate moves in order to try to win some matches than a real plan of his choice (a bit like Rafa did)...
  14. Tomo and Henrique, I have moved your little talk about Mourinho from David Luiz's thread to where it belongs! Please continue the debate here... I hope you dont mind!
  15. I hope you dont mind I changed the title a bit, but "striker" was spelled wrong!
  16. Yeah, but he failed big time in the only real challenge he had! Also, Bayern almost lost one of those trophies to our very inconsistent Chelsea... Not a failure, but definitely not "pretty well" too.
  17. LOL, what a ridiculously poor argument! it is pretty simple...Mandzukic isnt needed if we already have Costa and Lukaku. In fact, him and Costa would be a worse duo than Costa and Lukaku. It is way better to have Costa leading the line and Romelu as the second option. Firstly, Diego will take most of the pressure away from the Belgian, which can positively reflect in his performances. Secondly, we know Lukaku likes Chelsea, respects Mourinho and would probably not have a problem with being second choice (something Mandzukic clearly isnt). Thirdly, Romelu knows the Premier League (arent you so ridiculously fixated on that? LOL). Lastly, Lukaku is a lot younger and has room to improve and reach a level the Croatian never will. The only skill Mandzukic excells at is in the heading department, but our team isnt even great at crossing the ball from open play that it pretty much all goes to waist. We cant have a second option who isnt at his best playing in our style! Mandzukic is an average player who thrived on a perfectly balanced team. He is not worth cutting Luiz' price in half. Not now, not never! You dont build a team with two strikers with the absolute same characteristics. You just dont (maybe you dont know that from playing FIFA). The best is to have two great options who CAN play well in the same system, but still maintain a few differences if a time comes when you need to change the team a bit. Specially when Jose puts both strikers on the pitch! Also, I find it weird how you cried like a pathetic little baby when Lukaku was loaned to Everton and now wishes Mandzukic becomes our second option ahead of him...
  18. He offers things our team doesnt thrive on! And no, from a tactical perspective it doesnt make any sense...
  19. Let it rest dudes, each has their own right to believe in whatever source they want even if they are not generally respectable... Focus on constructive criticism and/or debates rather than nit picking at one another. Thanks!
  20. Why Mandzukic? It makes absolutely no sense! Signing Costa, keeping Lukaku and selling Luiz to Barcelona for 30mi (or swapping him for Alexis and Song) is waaay better than doing business with Bayern over this okay striker...
