I saw edmilson blasted him and said he should not try the things he does in brazil because he will get damaged in europe.

blaugrana1: he is said to be something like Ruud or Inzaghi. He doesnt run too much when its not needed, doesnt impress with some tricks but he is always at the right place and almost every his shot ends in goal - clinical finisher.

woo sah Said,
in 70 app. he's netted 38 times.
i'm combining both his seasons in cortiba and palmeiras.
that's more then a 50% strike rate.
what's he good at???
i guess simply its putting the ball in the net.
and he's young.

Come on guys.. Have some faith. He has calm composure and eye for goals.
If he's good, let's support him to be better. Our club is known for polishing good players. Pep Guardiola also good at working with young players. Let him guide and develop Keirisson.

Aussie Barca Fan Said,
K9 has some good atributes. He is solid build, tall, can shoot from both feet. He looks like he reads the play well also. I actually think he should start the season with us and see how he goes. If he doesn't settle by January then he should be loaned out but we should give the boy a chance. He could prove to be an excellent for year signing.
