They had that wonderful midfield of Eder, Cerezo, Socrates, Zico and Falcao, but up front they had the ungainly figure of Serginho, who probably wouldn't have made it into any other Brazil team before or since.
But yes, I remember at the time they were a sensation. Even non-football fans were talking about them.
Serginho was a poor man's Justin Fashanu.Shocking player.
Only player ever to make Zanetti look like a mug.
