Baggio Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Adriano's freaky Friday The Brazilian striker had a black Friday. He had a car crash, arrived late at the practices and threatened a photographer. Adriano, Inter player currently on loan at Sao Paulo, seems not to get over several personal, soccer crisis for he's back on the spotlight due to his mediocre performance on the field and other controversies. The striker, who was in the lineup which drew 1-1 against Atletico Nacional Medellin in Copa Libertadores debut, arrived in Cumbica de Guarulhos airport (Sao Paulo) without the official outfit the players must wear in this kind of trip. This was feud no. 1... The team justified Adriano's attitude through a statement, alleged the coaching staff allowed him to take off his shirt because he was sweating. Sao Paulo chairman Juvenal Juvencio said later that "Adriano may be 'the Roman emperor in Italy, but here, he's just another player in the roster", promised he will talk to him about the incident. Feud no. 2: Adriano was involved in a car accident on Friday morning in Sao Paulo; he collided with another car, but further details are still unknown. Later on, feud no. 3 took place. The striker arrived 28 minutes later to the Friday practice coach Muricy Ramalho scheduled by nine in the morning. Borges and Hugo also arrived late, but they joined the rest of their teammates normally; Adriano did not do the same, for he went to the Physiotherapy, Physiology Sport Rehabilitation Center alleging a strong pain in his right thigh. A few minutes later, Adriano left the premises without making statements, which made Sao Paulo superintendant Marco Aurelio Cunha get furious. "We'll see what happened exactly, then we'll know what to do; he didn't explain why he arrived late at the practices, he will be fined for sure", he remarked. An hour later, Adriano got in his car and left the team premises, threatened anybody who intended to take a picture; finally, he argued and threatened a photographer from sports paper Lance, Reginaldo Castro. Cunha said Adriano's attitude was "definitely inappropriate and unsuitable"; this new controversy, plus former ones and his poor performance, could make his stay at the Brazilian team shorter than agreed http://www.sportsya.com/english/news.php/Adriano_was_late_at_team_practice_had_a_car_crash_threatened_a_photographer.html?id=172041&id_estruc=283 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggio Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Adriano tells his truth Inter's Brazilian striker admitted during a TV interview he had abused of alcohol to sleep, he regrets having lost almost two years of his life. Adriano talked about openly about the crisis he suffered last season, and prevented him from playing for Inter neither at the Calcio nor at the Champions League. "In those days, I could hardly sleep at night, I couldn't do anything. All my problems were on my mind, so I needed to drink to sleep a while, and I don't want to do it again", Adriano said. Adriano admitted he lost almost two years of his life and career, but he said that "it may happen to everyone, the most important thing is that you have to be able to learn the lesson". "I had so many things in my mind, I couldn't get focused on my career. When I was at the practices, I've got my mind on other things so I couldn't do my job right", he added. He said that it was his fault. "I should have tried to solve all my problems and focus on my job, but I didn't". Adriano, also known as "the Emperor" through Italy, grew up in a Rio "favela", and he even told his mother that he felt happier when they were poor". "It's clear that money can help solve some problems, but it is not the solution for everything; money is useless if you are down", Adriano said. http://www.sportsya.com/english/news.php?id_estruc=283&id=158670 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's only on loan at Sao Paulo iirc from Inter so even if we were to sign him, the deal would have to go through them and so his disputes at Sao Paulo won't affect his availability.

Baggio Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Not all bad. Brazil coach Dunga has admitted that Adriano could be in line for a recall to the national team. Speaking in a television interview on Monday, Dunga said "He has evolved, he is improving a lot with Sao Paulo," "He had a few problems at the start but he is getting back to being the Adriano that we all know." Dunga said, speaking about Adriano's time at São Paulo. "Without doubt, if he goes back to being the Adriano that he was before, he will have chances because he is a player with strength, power and he scores goals." Adriano has featured only once for Brazil under Dunga, in last year's 2-0 friendly defeat by Portugal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggio Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Kevin Keegan insists he won't be frightened to sign problem players with "warts" as he rebuilds Newcastle. Toon bosses have tried to tame a succession of bad boys in recent years and had their fingers burned, most recently with £6million midfielder Joey Barton. But Keegan, who intends to keep Michael Owen as his long-term skipper, accepts that he may have to shop for stars who have have been in hot water, or become misfits at their clubs, and turn them around. Barton is currently on bail and must be back at the Sporting Chance Clinic in Hampshire by 7pm each night, ruling him out of matches in the North as he banks his £40,000-a-week wages. Advertisement He is due in court in March to answer an assault charge, but Keegan has pledged to back Barton and get him playing again. Craig Bellamy, Lee Bowyer and Kieron Dyer have also been the talk of the Tyne for the wrong reasons. During his first reign Keegan got the best out of temperamental David Ginola and took unfashionable players and made them stars. Keegan will adopt a similar strategy again, explaining: "In this area, we're not always going to get the very best - we sometimes get the ones with warts on, like they've had a problem somewhere. "And the secret is can you get the best out of them, can you give them something that's been missing? "I'm not saying we're going to look for awkward players, but that's what we did last time. "We got a few players in at the start who for one reason or another hadn't worked out, but we knew they had ability and hunger. "People like Brian Kilcline came, then Paul Bracewell, Barry Venison and Rob Lee. Then we mixed them with a few fresh faces like Andy Cole. "If you go back it didn't happen overnight although people think it did. We formed a team, we got up, we nearly won the league, but it was a real good process." Keegan has pledged to make attractive wing play a feature again with star roles for Damien Duff and James Milner, and also potential new signing Shaun Wright-Phillips. Keegan said: "When you talk to Damien the desire is there, so that's the only thing you need. He's got the ability, he's just had injuries and he's now much more experienced. He can get better and improve here. "Wingers and players who can go past people have always been very important to me because they change matches. Can we get more out of them in an inventive way? I think we can." http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/2008/01/22/kevin-keegan-i-ll-buy-bad-boys-89520-20294350/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggio Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Martins wants Adriano’s partnership By ROMANUS UGWU Tuesday, April 4, 2006 Super Eagles striker, Obafemi Martins was in the 24-man squad that jetted out to Spain on Monday for the UEFA Champions League second leg quarterfinal gain against Villarreal today. Club’s manager, Mancini, whp loaded his squad with four strikers, Mancini charged his players to be attack minded, irrespective of the result of the first leg. “I need Inter to play like they can and like they have always done without trying to defend the first-leg result which gives us small advantage. We will have to try and have the right attitude. The team's attitude on the pitch will be important,” he affirmed. Mancini added that he had secreet studied the Spanish side, adding: "I already knew Villarreal because I had seen them play a number of times. We knew it would be a hard match, then everything became more difficult after they took an immediate lead. They are a solid team who can do damage in attack because of the quality of their players." Speaking on the match, Obafemi Martins believed he would be beginning to gel with the Brazilian international, Adriano, adding that he would want more of their partnership. "I don't know if Adriano and myself are the perfect couple for Inter, but this is a coach's decision and I'm not the coach. What is sure is that together we feel really good and we must continue this way," he noted. The Nerazzurri travelled with three goalkeepers, eight defenders, nine midfielders and four attackers. http://www.sunnewsonline.com/webpages/features/soccerstar/2006/apr/04/soccerstar-4-04-2006-003.htm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggio Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Playboy lifestyle cost demanding Adriano a Premier League move Last updated at 10:49am on 4th September 2007 Inter Milan striker Adriano, whose £125,000-a-week wage demands priced him out of a move to Manchester City and West Ham, has been accused of spending his money on a playboy lifestyle. Brazilian Adriano, 25, told West Ham that he would reconsider a loan move to the Premier League in January but Alan Curbishley may be more than perturbed to hear Italian reports say he has been dropped from Inter's Champions League squad, with his poor form blamed on his party lifestyle. Adriano is alleged to be spending £28,000 a week living in the suite of a five-star Milan hotel, despite having a home on the outskirts of the city, and partying. His drinking has already cost him club fines and suspensions for missing training. Adriano has admitted having a booze problem. He said: 'I like going to nightclubs and discos and try to get rid of my problems through alcohol.' http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/sport/football.html?in_article_id=479770&in_page_id=1779 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
