I can't wait to see this kid play. I wonder who'll come out on top? Arguably Ronaldo won his battle win Keirrison, will he get the same result against Neymar?

i agree with dhabibe, you only wrote about players in Sao Paulo. Sorin, Doval, Fillol were way more important than some of the players you listed. But they didn't play in Sao Paulo. And I don't know if you notice, but Mancuso was way more important in Flamengo but you only wrote about him in Palmeiras.

re: The top five Argentinians ever to set foot in Brazil

dhabibe — Sat, 07 Mar 2009 19:24:47 GMT

It looks like "The top five Argentinians ever to set foot in SAO PAULO".

Mancuso? MANCUSO? MAN-CU-SO?

How about the Blonde Devil, Doval; or the huge pure class of Perfumo? And Sorin???

Mancuso... Give me a break.

How old is Santos' Neymar?

He`s probably not playing the National Championship, is he?

Keirrison on the other hand is an amazing player. He could be playing in a big club in Europe, just as Sao Paulo's Hernani

The championship is very tight at both ends of the table. Flu, Vasco could easily go down this year whilst five clubs have a realistic chance of winning the title, like you say.

My personal opinion is that Sao Paulo will win it. They seem to be coming into form at just the right time. I also think Vasco will go down- just!

Thanks Matt! A Wales-based Colorado website... It's Internacional living up to its name! Just dropped by, wow, it's fantastic, highly recommended for all the Brazilian football fans. (Except the Grêmio ones, of course, who probably are not eager to see details of the CHOCOLATE!) Count on me if you need something, man. Just left a message there. Cheers!

Colorado — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 16:43:50 GMT

I am a non-Brazilian, Internacional fan from UK.

I really enjoyed reading this preview to the game but not as much as I enjoyed the actual result which was 4-1 to Inter!

A few months ago I began the only English language Inter site, with daily news and highlights from Inter and all the other Brazilian clubs. Please take a look internacionaluk.blogspot.com

Celso, I'd really like it if you could get in contact with me via the site so I can speak with you further.

Vamos INTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think he went because it was away from the hype and pressure of Los Merengues. He will enjoy playing his football again. With a nice thick wallet helping him through any potential anguish.

Change is good — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 17:05:56 GMT

Here are the most common reasons why people resist change:

1) People don't understand why the change is necessary.

2) People don't believe the "change" will work.

3) People believe the old way is better.

4) People are afraid that they themselves might fail.

5) People don't trust the motives of the change agent.

6) There is evidence that the old way works.

7) There is little or no evidence that the new way will work.

8) The pain associated with changing is greater than the pain of remaining the same.

So that's why Robinho is Number 8!

re: Goodbye and good riddance Dunga

Anderson Aguiar — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 05:15:46 GMT

the truth is that no one in Brasil can take it anymore from Dunga, we all pray to Dunga go home watch some tv and left the Selecao to a real coach, couse it is his first experience in this job. The biggest mistake was put him in this position, couse some beleves that his passion as player would be the same as coach, but it is not. he has afraid to risk and make the player go foword as a real Selecao Brasileira always been. Everybody in Brazil have contience that put him also in olympic team besides main team, is a strategy to take him out off the job in the case he doesnt got the gold. This job he is doing well. (sorry my bad english)

Fala Celso

you're right about getting up early - it's been a pain - though i'll probably try for the 07:00 start on saturday for the following reason. Cameroon can do Brazil a big favour by knocking the South Americans out of the competition. in doing so they'd end Dunga's lamentable spell in charge.

re: Tip for Abramovich... let Scolari do it his way

kat — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 16:54:45 GMT

If not properly treated Scolari could walk out? I'm sure Abramovich would think, bothered! A dozen (if not many more) managers could do his job, but owners as munificent as Abramovich, there exists only one. And if he walked Scolari would lose his money, a main motivation for taking the job as he's admitted.

Brazilian coaches haven't suceeded at the top in Europe which I'm sure will motivate him, but the Portuguese are pretty scathing about Scolari's tactics and methods (as was Mourinho) and if someone as clever and proud as Jose found himself outmanouvered by the Russian, what of the rather more traditional Brazilian?

re: Flu vs LDU: kill or be killed at the Maracanã

Pitacodogringo — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 23:09:05 GMT

i like Renato Gaúcho and the football his teams play but I’m never quite certain if he really believes the things he says or whether it’s all bravado.

Flu have a good record in the Maracanã but they will probably have to score more than twice as they've conceded at least one goal in eleven of their last twelve outings

re: EXCLUSIVE: Copa Libertadores champions revealed

Celso de Campos Jr — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 04:57:09 GMT

Bullseye, it's indeed far from over, despite the two goals lead. But there's one important thing: for some unknown reason, the away goals rule doesn't apply in the finals - yes, only in the finals. The Conmebol masterminds... So if Flu beats LDU by two in Maracanã, we'll have extra time - and penalties if necessary. To take the title in the first 90 minutes, only with a three goal lead. That's not easy...

re: EXCLUSIVE: Copa Libertadores champions revealed

Bullseye — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 10:27:25 GMT

Spot on Celso. Two away goals though ahead of the second leg, and we've already seen Corinthians blow a two-goal lead from the first-leg in the Copa do Brasil.

What chance of it happening again?

Celso de Campos Jr — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 22:59:41 GMT

I'd say it's a smart bet, Ronnie!

Your blog is a great resource, I can't think of anywhere else in the world of English language media where I would be able to read about the Copa do Brasil etc.

Just how good is Denthinho and how long do you think he will stay at Corinthians?

re: No Kaka, no cry as Pato takes on Copa America

Socrates — Sun, 25 May 2008 19:55:22 GMT

I completely agree with all that you've said.

The best thing that Dunga has done so far is to choose talent from the so-called smaller clubs (Diego from Werder Bremen, Rafinha from Schalke, Vagner Love from CSKA etc) and build a team of 11 players to form a superb team, not get 11 superb individuals to stand around on the pitch.

Give Robinho the number 10!

Another cracking performance from Mr Celso. It's surely only a matter of time until one of the big European clubs snaps him up. The new Pele of football writing?

re: The madness of Emperor Adriano

Panz — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 11:27:01 GMT

Going back to Brazil was not his best idea in my opinion. Over there they have a higher expectation of what they should expect from him whereas I think in Europe the mentality for rehabilitating a broken player is a lot more professional and orderly.

If he had joined someone in Europe like in France or Germany (or even with Sam Allardyce when he was at Newcastle) he would still be able to play a european style and not have deal with the chaos that goes on behind the scenes in Brazilian football and I think this would have helped him more.

Great blog.

It is sad to see the guy throw away everything he worked so hard for. He had it all, but now is falling deeper and deeper into that pit of lions.

re: The end of Ronaldo? Don't bet on it

MHRRSousa — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 03:43:49 GMT

Campos Jr is right: The Chubby has guts. He probably will prove some os us wrong.

But will he ever again be an asset to his team? I have serious doubts. Not only because of this last unfortunate and serious injury, but also because of his poor performances of late.

Let's hope for the best. Let' s hope he will prove me wrong.

re: The end of Romario’s Carnival

eduardo — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 06:02:01 GMT

Romario and Edmundo are two of few guys in the world that have to work in order to receive a huge amount of money that already belong to them. Vasco (and Flamengo) owes so much money for these guys that the only way for them to receive that is by attaching themselves to the club again (over and over). And each time they sign a new contract, Vasco renegotiates that amount with them.

But all of this is a mystery. Nobody really knows what happens in Eurico's Kingdom of Vasco da Gama. Romário, the prince of this Empire, is gone. Edmundo, the supporter's favorite is taking over and may be a hidden reason for Romário's departure. The only one that seems to last forever in this Brazilian soap opera, a.k.a. Vasco, is the King, the folkloric Eurico Miranda (a Brazilian version of Atletico Madrid´s Jesus Gil y Gil).
