I really thought they throw in a good few young players that playing in europe but almost every one of those Brazilians would get into the Irish team. France might have even trouble bring better quality squad to Dublin for the Euro qualifiers.

btw good move by Rooney to byndle the tickets. �60 is a steal for 3 quality intrrnational matches.

i saw brazil play jamaica at leicesters walkers stadium in october, for that game too they put a full team out.

They seemed to sit back a little against jamaica although carlos scored a great goal. They played a 'full strengh team' for a good 75/80 mins and then only brought on 2 subs.

Unlike some teams brazil didnt seem to look down at the jamaican team and their conduct through out was great to see.

Any ideas on the team we will put out? or when it will be anounced

tbh �60 now looks underpriced.... Hindsight is great, but after the speed they sold out, they could've put more of a premium on the Barzil tickets....

to get back to the Brazilian squad, it's on www.eleven-a-side.com that Ronaldo is a bit doubtful for the game.

Junihno (Lyon midfieder) has pulled out with injury. He's the player who scored 2 goals against Celtic and looks a smashing player. As most of you will also know Emerson pulled out last week and was replaced by Rockenbach.
