Also, fun to note.

His real name is Luis Eduardo Soares da Silva, but he goes by Cuiabano as his nickname/football name, because he is from the city of Cuiaba.

Its like Dunk just being known as "Brightonian", or Hinshelwood as "Worthingite".

Having never heard of him and from only seeing the reel he appears to like a toe punt, he looks quick, misses loads when he maybe had better options ( I guess he can improve with coaching ), didn’t see very much defensively which would be his primary role was a little concerning but having said that what do I know when my personal best achievement football wise was Sunday league division 11pub team

Highlights reel… looks like he likes to get forward and could be long term Pervis replacement.


I love when half of the highlights are just doing very average things in slow motion. Missed a free header from 8 yards out - clip that!

Would still be the flairest Brazilian nickname since Revelldinho

I play footy with a Botafogo fan, and he says "He's one of the best of the team right now... he's originally a LB but he's playing forward as a winger. Runs a lot, has a good cross, good shot from outside the area, just needs to improve on defense, but he's just 22 so still young. Botafogo will play the FIFA Club World Cup next month, good chance to watch him playing vs Europe teams"

Tldr; he's shithouse

I trust that there will be a big focus on our full backs this coming transfer window.

Veltman - Best shithouser. Best defensively. Neat passing. Not great going forward. Slow. Too many injuries this season. Fan favourite but out of contract soon.

Lamptey - Best at attacking. Worst defensively. Mostly injured but for balance, seems a very nice guy. Out of contract soon.

Pervis - Has had a sketchy season but was immense under De Zerbi for a while. Injuries too but could return to top form next season. Loves an assist and is sometimes very good in defence. Keep!

Kadıoğlu - Seems to play every position but defensively suspect. He was showing great form before he acquired 'Lineker's Toe Syndrome'. Keep!

Various Midfielders - Stick to midfield next season please.

Offiah - Out of contract soon. I can't say that I've seen a lot of evidence to suggest that he is a top 10 EPL fullback but I've not seen too much of him.

We could get a couple of newbies couldn't we. This lad and Costa from Juve.
