    Ancelloti junior appointed by Botafogo. Following his Father? One to watch, highly regarded and if the apple hasnt fallen to far from the tree he may well be in Europe before too much longer.

    Really intrigued to see how he gets on. Was close to the Rangers job, would be a big risk for them but also feels it could be high reward

    Brazilian football is mad as you will know. It is such a competitive league. 4 pts between top 7. Then about 7 down to relegation. It is really hard to dominate and get winning runs together. Not to mention it is really physical as well as technical. I think it is high risk for him as they won the title and their first Copa last year. They have high hopes, but very tough place.

    Yep very tough place to go - the fans are mental there

    See Mikey Johnston was about to sign for a team over there but their fans went mental about it so they've pulled out the deal

    I used to work with a scout who used to scout in south America for Ajax and he said its just mental over there

    My mate went to River vs Boca before and he said he's seen nothing like it before in his life
