The English and Manchester United central defender Rio Ferdinand says the striker that really harassed him on the pitch was the Brazilian striker Adriano, who played his club football in Italy with Inter Milan, he was lovingly called THE ROMAN EMPERROR at Inter Milan..
So was Adriano really that good ? You see he was a storky footballer built in the framework of Ronaldo Nazario, and Diego Maradona, but he had great pace, strength, skill in dribbling, vision for scoring goals, and always had a fire burning in the belly to do well..
Now was he that good can be decided that he got himself in the Brazilian team which had players like Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Rivaldo, for the 2006 world cup.
While footballers like Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp all were smooth ,skilful , but at the same time Adriano was more unpredictable what he could do.
Now Adriano came from a place in Brazil that had all the vices gangs and gang fights, drug lords and drug pedlars, prostitution was at a big scale as well.
One day he got a phone call from Brazil saying his father was shot in a fight, and sadly Adriano ynever ever recovered took to drinking in a very big way, he put on weight, and his areer went backwards.
Sadly he is now working in Brazil with the drug lords, a example of wasted gifted talent gong down te drain
