I dont remember of seeing Marco Antônio Boiadeiro playing as a defender. For me, he was always a midfielder. It is very strange to see him among the defenders.

Pedro Paulo, champion of Taça Brasil in 1966, was right back, not midfielder.

Sorry, I should had noticed it before but I have just realize that Henrique is among the defenders and he played as defensive midfielder.

You can switch Sorín (who is among the midfielders) with Henrique and keep 12 by positions.

What about Dedé (Anderson Vital)?

Olá, na verdade Alex deve estar no elenco como titular, sua breve passagem foi extremamente marcante, o torcedor cruzeirense o considera o terceiro jogador mais técnico da história do clube abaixo de Tostão e Dirceu Lopes, é só mover Dirceu pra ponta direita e incluir Alex.

In English please. Almost no one speaks Portuguese here.

Hello, Alex being in the squad and starting, despite his brief passage was extremely remarkable, Cruzeiro fans consider him just below Tostão and Dirceu Lopes at a technical level, just move Dirceu Lopes to the right wing and include Alex.

I get it. However, the attachment to the fans is the least I consider. You suggest to move Dirceu Lopes to the right wing but who would you take off the first team? In my opinion, the players I selected have been more important for several factors like titles, years spent in the team, appearances, goals.

Outside Evaldo in my opinion.

I know I have commented on this before but I would like to comment again (since the first time I got no response and currently the cycle of this player has already ended at the club), but there is no way Raul Plassmann put Fábio on the bench in this team. Of course, both are legendary goalkeepers who spent more than 10 years at the club (Fábio almost 20 years). Fábio has almost 1000 games for the club, against Raul's 557. Although Raul won the Libertadores, I believe Fábio has been the most decisive player in some moments of Cruzeiro (since he had the misfortune of participating in some terrible Cruzeiro teams and still making good saves) besides having stayed in the club in its worst moment in history, even without receiving months of salary and also has important achievements for the club (especially the large amount of national titles). Raul might have been a better goalkeeper, but not that better, it is not as if there is a gap between the 2 that justifies Fábio's absence only by technical quality criteria. I don't know if you agree with this or not, but Fábio is not only one of Cruzeiro's greatest idols, but also one of the greatest idols of any Brazilian team.
