This guy for United has been amazing. In his first season he has replaced Brown/O’Shea/Neville asa United’s first choice RB

Rafael has been sensational but im convinced he can get even better with time.. his brother Fabio is fabulous however. he is more of an attacking midfielder & winger though; he has amazing scoring ability and a scorching shot but can be solid at left back if need be.. Rafael once quoted him after Brazils 6-1 U17 hammering of S.Korea as being “a player capable of playing all over the field.” If it wasnt for his constant Injuries Evra might of had to settle for a place on the bench.

RAFAEL IS SENSATIONALLY REMARKABLE WHEN COMING TO DEFENCE AND AN ATTACKING WINGER, SO I SEE NEVILE BEING OUT PLAYED BY HIM IN TERMS OF THE STARTING 11.

He is becoming quite the player. United defensively definitely had a drop off when he was out with injury this spring. I’m looking forward to seeing him get likely full time duty next season.
