A fellow Brazil fan, thats nice to see. Brazil is well represented at the the Euro cup this year. As a matter of fact, a Brazilian is guaranteed to lift the Cup unless the Russians win. Every other remaining team has at least one Brazilian on it.

And thats not counting the numerous Brazilians that are on the eliminated teams.

That gets a bit old, but you know those generous Brazilians, spreading quality wherever they go.

We'll have to agree to disagree on Italy. In 2006 they were outplayed regularly by what should have been vastly inferior teams. And scoring in every game isnt really a valid metric if you're regularly getting outscored.

I've had bad experience with Italian fans who always vastly overestimate their teams chances. There is a big difference between faith, hope and blind delusion. Most Italian fans for the last little while have been afflicted with the lattermost and the WC win just threw fuel on the fire.

I wont comment on the Serie A because it is very different and generally favours a much more attacking style. I like the Serie A, but I dont watch very much of it, there are just too many other leagues and teams that I prefer.
Heh all football fans are similar. There are many Brazillian fans who think they can just show up with their 6th best team should be given the World Cup. They're so annoying..

Can we get the Brazillians that play for European teams back on the Brazillian squad please? Brazil is awful right now. They haven't scored in 3 games and dont really look like scoring anytime soon. Could really use a guy like Senna!
