Comments for President Lula Asked to Leave Brazil After He Pans National Soccer Team at http://www.brazzilmag.com , comment 0 to 8 out of 8 comments http://www.brazzilmag.com Thu, 08 Jan 2009 16:22:10 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.2 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/9862/1/#pc_16749 Lula is a freaking idiot. However, what he says is not entirely UNTRUE. Brazil's soccer team is lacking because the best players are in Europe. So what do you expect? Brazil is losing its startdom in soccer because it is losing its best players to teams like Barcelona and Milan. The players should care less what Lula says. - Rem Mon, 08 Sep 2008 01:56:01 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/9862/1/#pc_16736 How are Kirchner's ball-control skills?? If you are talking about Cristina, her Control skills are pretty good. She holds Nestor´s balls firmly with both her hands. - João da Silva Sun, 07 Sep 2008 19:18:37 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/9862/1/#pc_16724 ((I meant "beneficial" and not "benefician" -- oops)) - M ark Sun, 07 Sep 2008 14:39:41 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/9862/1/#pc_16723 ;D Back in 2006, BOTH Ronaldo and Lula were correct! Ronaldo was (and still is!) chubby and Lula drank (and still drinks!) like a fish - ask any honest Brasiliero o Brasiliera and they will agree ... I lived in Brazil recently for a year, and futbol is L-I-F-E there - it comes in third only to air and water for a Brazilian's daily requirements for living ... the national team MUST get it's sh*t together soon ... as it is now, many Brasilians are almost ashamed of their national team ... trading Lula to Argentina for Kirchner might be an interesting trade that would possibly be benefician (and maybe NOT!) to both countries ;) ... How are Kirchner's ball-control skills??? Could Lula adapt to Argentina's energetic, sometimes frantic style of play??? :P - M ark Sun, 07 Sep 2008 14:37:58 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/9862/1/#pc_16720 lET'S HEAR ALL ABOUT IT. - JAY GLENN Sat, 06 Sep 2008 20:54:17 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/9862/1/#pc_16719 [quote]IN A COUNTRY THAT HAS LITTLE TO OFFER its people for him to belittle the team does not set well with many in the croud I know to me its only a game but it is a life style in brazil for many [/quote] You are so right. But I liked the comments of the Júlio César and Dunga! The President of a country like ours can not afford to make the poor performance of the Soccer team a national issue. As you rightly said, it is only a game and it is time to stop treating the players as gladiators. - João da Silva Sat, 06 Sep 2008 17:05:52 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/9862/1/#pc_16716 I think even the Brazilian female team can beat the men. - The Guest Sat, 06 Sep 2008 14:07:39 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/9862/1/#pc_16715 IN A COUNTRY THAT HAS LITTLE TO OFFER its people for him to belittle the team does not set well with many in the croud I know to me its only a game but it is a life style in brazil for many time will tell about bush but we know about LULA now - forrest allen brown Sat, 06 Sep 2008 13:17:26 +0100
