    Hey, wanted to make sure to say this. I've mean meaning to make a video on Dener for a long time however I always felt it was an especially hard topic to tackle. Same reason why I've never made a video on Robert Enke, Metzelder, Dario Silva etc. Regardless, one of my best friends who's brazilian kept telling me I had to make this, I resisted for a while, but a few weeks ago before my birthday we talked about it again and I decided it was time. I tried my best to make this as respectful as possible without ignoring the faults of Dener's character or his lowest moments, I hope that I've managed to make it a good tribute to his life. Thank you so much for watching and if there's anything wrong with the video, please tell me, I'll do my best to fix it.

      A tribute to Robert Enke would be nice, to introduce him to the people that don't know about him and of course about the other people it would also be nice, but since Robert Enkes death raised so much awareness on mental health I think a tribute would be very nice. Sadly we had to learn the hard way when it came to mental health and I hope stories like these will never happen again

What most outraged Brazilians was that on the same day Brazil was playing a friendly in France and the whole country was asking for Denner to be called up. The idiot coach Parreira, who always liked to play ugly and was a fan of defensive football, didn't give the slightest importance to the fans' requests.

Now I also think they don't appreciate cristiano because of r9. No disrespect to r9 but Cristiano Ronaldo is better than him. He has more of everything(besides wc) than r9. Sure cr7 can't dribble as good as he used to in 2008 but he did get injured but got right back up. Which I think makes some Brazilians angry because he was able to still be lethal after his injury and didn't end up like r9

      Yet those kids after spending their time watching music videos ,😅😆 , would start talking nonsense like .
      Jude Bellingham or Kevin DB is as good as zidane.
      They see cristiano Ronaldo as a bye product of ignorance about past legends .

There there is Dani Alves, 3) free kicks ? Jouninho panaboucanho 4) selecting what titles to count ? Many world cups . 5) head to head , cristiano has faced Brazil 5 times zero goals ,zero victories ,zero assist .

    Vou escrever até em português: eu era uma criança na época, tinha oito anos de idade. Não lembro dos detalhes que passam despercebidos por uma criança - contratos, problemas fora de campo, histórias pré e pós jogo. lembro
    de ver reprises dos gols dele, mas o gol antológico feito ainda com a Portuguesa sempre me vem a mente quando falam dele.
    mas o que mais lembro é da notícia do acidente. Não me recordo se foi meu pai quem me contou ou se vi no noticiário da TV. Lembro de ter ficado chateado e ter registrado isso na memória.
    Como sou do estado de minas gerais, se falava mais do Ronaldo (na época ainda Ronaldinho) e do Cruzeiro. Ouvíamos mais sobre o Dener no tele jornal nacional.

    Hello from America brother! Found your channel a couple weeks ago and have been addicted to your content ever since. Keep up the good work! Growing up my first football (soccer) hero was Brian McBride. I was wondering if you could do one on this American legend. My secondary request would be Tim Howard. I was fortunate to see both of these guys play at my local professional team's stadium in MLS matches. I know American football is not quite at the level of the rest of the world, but these two players definitely helped put us on the map.
    Thanks for your time and I wish you all the best!

    I recall as fresh as today when I was a kid I wouldn't miss a single of his matches for anything on Earth, especially during his tenure in Portuguesa, and I'm a Corinthians fan. Despite all top players we had back then, none of them would allure to me as Denner did. And I can tell safely he'd become the best player in the world at some point, would have helped the national squad get even further , and amass all awards a player can get. He's been the player that impressed me the most , and when I discuss soccer and am asked about the best player I've seen , I always mention Denner, the young are like "who?"I was devastated when I learned of his death.
    Kudos to this channel for showing Denner to the world , back then there wasn't internet and gems like Denner would get known only after succeeding in Europe , but he was gone before he had the chance.

    I remember him. do jardel next. For me robinho was the most skillful player ever, its a shame he didn't keep his head in the game and went down the wrong path. Some Brazilians careers go down hill as soon as they get to big clubs in europe

    Watching him play is like catching a glimpse of a shooting star. That says everything. GOD GIVEN TALENT. Rest peacefully. 🙏 .
