Brazil has announced their world cup squad for the FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Brazil and AC Milan star Ronaldhino shocks fans with weight problem
The five time winners of the biggest competition in, international sports have named their 23 man squad which will be competing in the FIFA 2010 World Cup South Africa.
The biggest surprise by the Brazil manager, Dunga, former Brazilian World Cup winner in the 1994 World Cup held in the United States, was that Ronaldinho was left out of the squad.
The Two-time world player of the year, Ronaldinho and Adriano were both left out of the World Cup squad.
Another interesting choice by the manager of Italian and German descent is that rather then choosing an official squad of 30 players and then dropping to 23, Dunga has chosen his 23-man squad right away.
Dunga has been head coach of the Brazilian National Side since July 2006 with a very impressive record with the national team as he has won 45 games out of 63 games which he has managed.
Ronaldinho and Adriano, the former Inter Milan star will now only take part in the competition watched by billions around the world only if there is an injury in the squad.
A surprise selection by Dunga has been, former Manchester United and Besiktas attacking midfielder José Kleberson who is currently playing for Brazilian side Flamengo.
Bellow is the 23 man squad of the Brazilian National team which will compete in the FIFA 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Goalkeepers: Julio Cesar (Inter Milan), Doni (AS Roma), Gomes (Tottenham Hotspur)
Defenders: Maicon (Inter Milan), Luisao (Benfica), Michel Bastos (Olympique Lyon), Daniel Alves (Barcelona), Thiago Silva (AC Milan), Gilberto (Cruzeiro), Lucio (Inter Milan), Juan (AS Roma).
Midfielders: Kleberson (Flamengo), Gilberto Silva (Panathinaikos), Julio Baptista (Roma), Ramires (Benfica), Felipe Melo (Fiorentina), Elano (Galatasaray), Kaka (Real Madrid), Josue (VfL Wolfsburg).

wer is adriano and ronaldinjo.it is the worst squad brazil ever come up with.dunga you wont dream abt the fame aftr the w. c and u wil loose evrthin after this w.c.all the brazilians wil throw stones on ur face.
i realy miss the great ronaldhino.
bloody dunga wer is ronaldinjo and adr5iano.how much u hav got from argentina by selecting this team for world cup.
why RONALDINHO and PATO?
Decent team but Argentinas’ looks better
I am not very convinced with mr.Dunga’s selection, he left out Ronaldinho who becomes unpredictable at certain times and boosts the team, where is the stealth man Maicon ? and why is Pato not included !!
i hope brazil shows their charisma this world cup. GO BRAZIL V
this is shocking.you just cannot part the Brazil from Ronaldinho.That’s a big mistake.And what about Pato???????
Ronaldinho….. What to say about this player , this man is a genious when he is on the field with the ball , i wasnt loving the football but this player made me to do that , it is difficult to watch him play as we dont get the telecast of serie a to watch , so i was hoping to see ronaldinho playing in the world cup , his la elastica is the best to watch , but because of dunga its not possible now , why havent you include him in the squad , you really are jealous of this all time great footballer .
WHERE IS PATO ??????????????????
What a weak squad? no Pato,no Ron ,Dunga is not selective at all.my hopes 4 Brazil are gone.No player from English prem League.Uganda is my w.c team 2010.
2010 FIFA WORLD CUP FOR
