... lucas is not really brazillian either as his parents are from moldova so we have a eastern player that is ok ish ...
For years now I have been staunchly on the Lucas side of the Great Lucas Debate. This has been in the face of all sorts of perefectly rational arguments about his limitations, weaknesses, flaws and deficencies - arguments that I have been able to quite firmly come to grips with and dismiss in my own mind. I have always been totally decisive - he is a cracking player who I like a lot...
But that was until now. HE'S NOT EVEN A PROPER BRAZILIAN!!!! Oh. My. God. Why weren't we told? In the name of all that is sacred - MOLDOVAN you say?! And there I was - stupid sap that I am - defending this charlatan come hell or high water. All the time he was laughing at me - and it wasn't even a BRAZILIAN laugh.
Thank you my friend. You have enlightened me. Down with Lucas. (He's not really Brazilian).
Next thing you know it'll emerge that Danny Agger is actually Finnish... <shudder>
