    Though not relevant to the subject of this thread, do you guys think Neymar recovery will be in time for WC18, and do you think he will be in good physical form?

    Has anyone seen these videos? There's lots of amazing Pele YouTube videos made by this individual, including this one.

    I think he will be in shape because there will be guys around him who will make sure that he recovers in time... :Match fitness is a different thing though

    I really want Naldo to go to the world cup...He is one of the top defenders of bundesliga...He knows how to defend against the Germans....I. will prefer him over any of marquinhos / miranda ( My personal opinion ).
    Naldo is currently in the form of his life...He is good in aerial defense and also a constant threat to the opposition during free kicks,

    The WC2018 final will take place on the 11th anniversary of this game, can you believe it? To me everything that took place in 2006 or prior (R9/RC/Cafu generation) feels like old times. Now even new times / first era Dunga is old times

    I knew it was either today or yesterday. 10 years and 1 day ago, Dunga's Brazil easily defeated Maradona's Argentina 3-1 in Rosario's Gigante del Arroyito after Diego himself asked for a change of venue. It was believed Brazil would have been intimidated, but Brazil was never in danger of not winning this match.

    And, 10 years later, the players in this photograph - and their team - have not won a single Copa América or World Cup..........

    Also Assis. I might go down to pay them a visit and give support. It's a document problem (Paraguayan passports and local ID's) associated with some type of money laundering/ tax evasion in turn of 10 Million $.
    The question is, why falsify a Paraguayan passport when Brazilians can travel to Paraguay without any type of Visa ?
    Ronaldinho is an idol in Paraguay (as he is around the world), and I am sure that he will get out of it, but it's going to take some time as the case is being investigated.

    That’s what I don’t get . You don’t need a visa to go into Paraguay . I don’t get it .

    His Brazilian passport was taken away after he got an environmental fine.

    That's irrelevant.

    The story is that he was trying to do some business in Paraguay. My guess is somebody duped him. Said they could get him Paraguayan citizenship to run some sort of money scheme.

    His brother is doing everything to make money off Dinho's image. He was involved in some bitcoin scheme that is being sued for being a pyramid scheme. Honestly, with the money he made, he shouldn't be having to make these questionable business decisions.

    They revoked his passport because he built a fishing harbor in his own property without government giving him permission. The lefties are very tolerant people. Thanks again Lula and PT. :rolleyes:

    Yes. I looked it up. I am pretty sure that lake or river is not his property. That's also apparently a protected area. And he supposedly didn't get a permit to build it. Build first, ask questions later. In the US, as you probably know, you need a permit to do an addition on your home in your own property.
