    i think its Flamengo because of all the great players they had like Zico, and many others, my father tells me that they had a hell of a team back in the 70s or early 80s i think

    The top three imo are Santos, Flamengo and São Paulo. Too bad Flamengo is going through a mediocre phase in the last years.

    Gremio had a left midfielder or winger a couple of years ago that was crazy good, liked to dribble. he was a natural left-sided player. it wasn't all that long ago, i'm wondering if any of you could identify with who i'm talking about and tell me whether he's playing these days?

    You are probably talking about young Ronaldinho Gaucho. He didnt have long hair at that time, so you may not remember him like THE Ronaldinho Gaucho.

    Or maybe Denner, who died in 1994.
