Hi all.
Im a new member to the yellow fever, I moved over to new
zealand from scotland in June 07 and since I came over and heard
about the phoenix back in July I have been following them and have
made them my new team!!
What i wanted to say watching the last few games i have
noticed daniel and felipe are linking up well together and i think
both are quality players, felipe is a standout and plays awesome
footie, I think the team in general are playing well and you can
see it coming together, its just a matter of time before we are
winning games on a regular basis.
I was wondering if anyone else thought the same about daniel
and felipe.
Also does anyone know if cleberson is out injured? he played
the first 2 or 3 games, dont know where he has went to!

Your right about Felipe and Daniel, and about Phoenix, it will
only be a matter of time before they start to get a winning
streak. I believe the other defenders are keeping Clebersen pout of
the team, they have been doing a tremendous job at the back and
will prob keep same team against the Glory on Sunday.
P.S Welcome to New Zealand mate, hope ya enjoying the good
life, i know i am!!

mmhm, altho wouldnt mind seeing the pairing become a trio for a
game adding george to creat a 4-2-3-1 with daniel,felipe and george
behind smeltz, with alosi and brown/johnson, altho the impending
introduction of elrich may stop that from ever happening

I like it when there's a deadball and then Felipe and Daniel go
into a huddle to discuss tactics; nothing has happened so far, but
something will come of it.
As for Clebo, I found him very entertaining to watch and a committed player in the games he played, but maybe he's been found to a bit un-disciplined (he's yet to kiss the ref in NZ) - if he can get his Englsih a bit more up to scratch he may start playing more with the team than as a good individual player.

I wonder what has happened to the Cleberson that played in the
first pre season game against Sydney .I think there were many of us
who left the ground that day thinking he looked the goods to become
a fixture in the defence.

At the Adelaide game something came out of one of those. Daniel ran over the ball, and Felipe looked like he was about to dribble it (passed it to Daniel). Didn't get anything out of it, but it looked cool.

I agree Daniel and Felipe are looking the business and
working well together. A problem with this though is every
team in the league will also have noticed and will target the two
of them, plus Daniel's lack of speed especially as the game wears
on is a bit of a worry.
Enter stage left, Ahmad Elrich, this should really stir things
up.
Enter stage right, George, his few touches last week were nice
and accurate
Cleberson, he kept committing the crime of kicking the ball
out, even Rugby fullbacks don't do that anymore.

How many of the squad will be ta-ta's when the WC Quals
are on?
Will we have a reasonable squad still? Who's gonna be in goal?
Maybe they could put Clebo in goal when the other two are away?... I'm sure Daniel & Felipe can say stop the Far King ball at all costs in Portugese...

I was thinking more of the Kiwi's lol...
Though they were crapping on about Daniel on Total Football over here a while back (and no, Slater wasn't on the panel at the time) saying that he played a full international way back when... Romario must have been at the hairdressers I reckon... is this true? Or just the usual over-hype we get here?

He was in the paper saying he might want to play for the All Whites. So I doubt it.

well, i guess he will eventually get game time cos players inevitably get injured, suspended, called up for international duty, the flu, chicken pox, the mumps

Rumour has it he came on as a sub against Saudi Arabia in
02/03. Can't find much info on it though. Played numerous matches
for Brazil -18's too apparently.

If everyone got a 'chance' we would be changing our team drastically every week. It aint Under 10's.

Yeah I found reference to it on another couple of pages too
(after all the lecturers bitch about it I've learnt you can find
answers from other sources, not just wiki...) but none of it was
really hard evidence- so I'd agree in that he probably hasn't. So
hes got a brother, any chance of signing him for next season?

It's called training and it goes on every day. It's
attended by this guy called Ricki Herbert, thankfully he's the one
picking the team...

Clebo's English is as good as, if not better than, Daniel
or Felipe's. Infact, I think I heard on here that he was
translating for George and Felipe during pre-season.

Too old to break into the squad now or in the future.
Top player but the standard for the Brasilian national side is
rediculously high - especially for attacking midfield.

Too right...and he'd be competing with the likes of Ronaldinho and Kaka for a spot on the team, both of whom are younger than Felipe by the way.el grapadura2007-09-27 21:00:21

There's been talk of this, apparently Daniel has indicated he might want to play for NZ. I think it's a far way off at this stage though.

definitely, it would benefit football here hugely. Cleberson speaks
good english, i spoke to him at the backbencher, also in
portuguese, George is having weekly lessons at the mo...but spoke
to him yesterday only in port, he is very shy to use his english.
