[3-lions]

Marlon to Fulham deal confirmed - it's gonna be completed soon. €15m to Sassuolo [part of the fee will go to Barcelona] and personal terms agreed. ⚪️ @DiMarzio @SkySport #Fulham

Do not know anything about this fella apart from the little Youtube footage I've seen of him passing the football. (So he can play as any Brazilian should.). Will he be good? No idea. Lets hope so. :003:

MARCA reporting it in Spain too.

Has anyone ever seen a Brazilian defender that can actually defend, I'm struggling to think of one.

There has been quite a few, you just need to look their international squads through the years. Dani Alves.

They used to say the similar about Brazilian goalkeepers

Thiago Silva.

Roberto Carlos

Roberto Carlos

was really known for his defending, he used to play higher up the pitch than most strikers

So moving the goalposts then? There have been plenty of excellent Brazilian defenders that's been good at defending, so does it really matter if it has been in the PL, since there are other good leagues in the world? Know nothing of this Marlon bloke though.

For a Centre Back the bloke is not very tall for his height.

One of the if not the best defenders Brazil has ever had.

Do not fear, we have three quality keepers, so Fabri is surely retraining as a centre-back. Hector, MLM, Ream, Odoi and Fabri all fighting for two spots.

But I do fear as Fabri is even shorter and could not head a bus queue, and who is the 3 quality keepers, because I can only think of two.

If you want a better defender than Roberto Carlos, then Tony Khan or any other DOF will disappoint you.
