Most of the people know about the man who introduced football to Brazil, although I didn't know he was born in Sao Paulo. I've watched some old videos of Charles Miller in Brazil. He loved British football and I think he created a very good mixture of British football and Brazilian football.
"Gilberto Aparecido da Silva", commonly known as "Gilberto Silva", is a Brazilian association football/footballer who last played for Clube Atlético Mineiro/Atlético Mineiro as a midfielder or Defender (association football)/defender.
Gilberto was raised in a poor family and as a child he balanced playing football with various labour jobs. He began his football career in 1997 with América Futebol Clube (MG)/América Mineiro, where good form earned him a move to Clube Atlético Mineiro/Atlético Mineiro in 2000. He became a star player for Atlético, playing for three years in the Brazilian football league system/Brazilian Campeonato Brasileiro Série A. He came to particular prominence when he helped the Brazil national football team/Brazilian national team win the 2002 FIFA World Cup, playing in all seven of Brazil's matches.
More Gilberto Silva on Wikipedia.It would be very difficult to say who would win between Arsenal when we play like this and Brazil. Who would I rather play for? I don't know. A half for each.
It's much more responsibility for me but I'm very confident I can do my best for the team. I am the oldest in my position but it doesn't matter who I play with because they are good players.
I am extremely calm and happy with the possibility to renew the contract, ... I will only leave Arsenal if a wonderful chance appears to leave here.
He's very famous in Brazil.
