Interesting article about the former Brazil international;

He was boss on Pro Evo on the PS1.

Nice read that ijjysmith. I won't leave you hanging here...

Do you think he could do a job for us........I'm 59.5425% being serious, I think

I really thought he would be the best striker in the world ever at one point

Nah - Too many personal issues for us to ever consider I think.

He's best to go back to Brazil like Fabiano and Ronaldinho where he can have his family around him

Yeah, I was fooling myself. I was 69.93838% right then

I just wanted a reason to wear my Inter Adriano top again...

Reading that though, doesn't look like he even has much of a chance back in Brazil!

Nope - sad because as you rightly say, at one point he was such a beast of a player

If there was ever an example of a non-Moyes player, Adriano is it.

Messi is another, but for different reasons. He doesn't track back enough.

For me, I'd actually like us to take a chance on him short term. I base this on the criteria that "he can't be as bad as Anichebe".

But by that logic, I'd also like us to take a chance short term on Lee Trundle.
