Miranda and Felipe Luis are big omissions IMO. Squad looks kind of meh..not the biggest Oscar fan....I'm sure Diego had a 1% chance of being selected but he's worth the risk.

they're not the "sexy" names for the squad, if athletico never proceeded to the round of 16 nobody would know them.

im not mad at city or chelsea or psg for buying left and right, but they inflated transfer fees mayne. kills it. in the end it helps smaller clubs if they invest it the right way though.

tbf, Liverpool are just of guilty of this. 35 million for Carroll, 20 Million for Keane, 20 million for Downing

bid was already accepted but PSG fukked shyt up for no reason.


that 35m for Carroll messed up the market more than any fees City ever paid for players.

yep we had him nearly wrapped then psg threw money at his agent

why don't these brazilian just follow the path to portuguese league and develop their game there? Language wouldn't be a problem to adapt. Worked for so many, not only brazilians.

NT's just been called up by Felipao

GKs - Júlio César, Jefferson, Victor.

DEF - Dante, David Luiz, Thiago Silva, Henrique, Dani Alves, Maicon, Marcelo, Maxwell

MF - Fernandinho, Hernanes, Luiz Gustavo, Oscar, Paulinho, Ramires, Willian, Bernard.

STRIKERS - Fred, Hulk, Jo, Neymar

So disappointing to not see CL Finalists Miranda and Filipe Luiz in the squad, as well as Cruzeiro players Dede and keeper Fabio. Julio Cesar has done nothing playing in the mickey mouse league and hes probably gonna be a starter. I would've liked to see Lucas Moura in there at least coming on as a super sub...although i am glad to not to see Kaka, Ronaldinho and Robinho on the list

Willian and Fernandinho:clap: both deserve to go. Should be guaranteed starters really.
Not entirely sure what the point of Paulinho is tbh:ld:what does he actually do?

Oscar better perform. He's pretty much taken the second half of the season off:pacspit:
