Fernandinho

[linetty]

No thread for him? How come?

Fernando Luiz Roza (born 4 May 1985), or simply Fernandinho, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays for English club Manchester City and the Brazil national team.

He is well known for his blistering pace and ability to shoot from long distances. He is described as 'a defensive midfielder with a box to box style of play', contributing in large part to the defense and the attack. With a powerful shot and great passing range, Fernandinho has played an important part in breaking up opposition attacks and creating goal scoring opportunities.

Huh?

Huh?

That's what the wiki says.

He's also quite fast in Fifa

He's no more than average tbh. He also is a fouling machine.

The sad thing is he is Brazil best CM by default

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

Luiz Gustavo is better.

Luiz Gustavo is better.

He is but I consider him more of a DM than CM.

That is true of course. Did not know you wanted to differentiate between the two.

I think Oscar is becoming more of a CM btw. His defense was always a big part of his game which meant he was dropping deep very often but he is playing even closer to the DM than the striker these days.

I don't really like him but he is kind of essential for the national team right now as he is one of the few mids we have who can actually pass the ball. Fouls too much though.

We just need Dunga to see this.Fernandinho is too old for the next World Cup (although Dunga doesn't care about age) and Oscar is taking up the spot that should be given to Coutinho.

I agree totally. Coutinho is essential for that midfield. He also has an x factor about him that Oscar does not have.

If Dunga is so obsessed with Oscar then he should try to mould him into a midfielder and replace Fernandinho.

Another bizarre selection was Robinho, what's the point of that. He should be selecting players like Felipe Anderson.

 

[Howes]

Didn't Fernandinho cost Manchester City £30mil ?
