if there's one thing I think it's cute and I actually like about you is when you call us - Brazilians - 'The Samba Dancers'

It's cute - even if not completely accurate

Nothing derogatory is intended. I picture Brazilians as hot mommas shaking their booty, twisting their hips...Brazilians at Chelsea always tried to imitate some sort of an attempt of it when they score.

U could just do something else (or watch cricket)

If we're leading by a good margin, we should bring on Kalas for a while and take JT off (even though I doubt that'll happen).

Who should we play as striker? Ba's in good form so should he be saved for Atleti (especially so that we can lob the ball up to him which can be useful in an away European tie)? Maybe we should try Eto'o to see how he's doing, get him in good form ahead of Atleti so that we have him and Ba as options ahead of Atleti (and so we can use either as subs if nec)?
