Rivaldo, still hasn't retired.

fontaine · Jul 4, 2015

Dude is still playing in Brazilian 2nd division :lol:

(oh, he's also the president of the club, signed up his son and now plays with him)

I don't know why I made this thread, its just that this really shocks me since he ha been washed up since 03-2004 but still is playing.

I'm sure a lot of people are not aware of this.

Lay · Jul 4, 2015

I saw him talking about training and seeing how he feels the other week, guess he actually will start playing.

prarek · Jul 4, 2015

Apparently he's also the president of the club. :lol:

The Mitcher · Jul 4, 2015

How does that work, what if he's dropped by the manager? :lol:

Joemo · Jul 4, 2015

I was going to joke that his son was called Rivaldinho, but he actually is.

Alock1 · Jul 4, 2015

To be fair, he looks no older in that picture (assuming it's recent). Was he a 40 year old baby like Robben?

Raoul · Jul 4, 2015

Belongs in the weird feelings of football thread.

Needham · Jul 4, 2015

Thought this terrible injury had put him out of the game back in 2002

Loublaze · Jul 4, 2015

When I saw the thread title I thought it was a bump from 2008 or something

Kakeru · Jul 4, 2015

Even to this day, I would say FFS to that.

Big Ben Foster · Jul 4, 2015

I called this not too long ago. He literally retires and comes back almost every year. :lol:

Ish · Jul 4, 2015

Then the manager will no doubt be club hunting :lol:

Rivaldoooooo! Is goal!

.Rossi · Jul 4, 2015

Hasn't aged really has he?

Donaldo · Jul 4, 2015

somehow the image of a kid blubbering and barely able to speak through snot and tears takes over by the NationNational level bit

sajeev · Jul 4, 2015

so do they sing it at his club?

Dante · Jul 4, 2015

Great thread title.

Get In Scholesy · Jul 4, 2015

Fantastic player, one of, if not, the best midfielder during his peak.

Welsh Wonder · Jul 4, 2015

I am in tears :lol:

Woodzy · Jul 4, 2015

Wow

BarstoolProphet · Jul 4, 2015

Great post

DatIrishFella · Jul 4, 2015

Literally the greatest post I've read on here.

17Larsson · Jul 4, 2015

Fontaine is really stealing Rivaldo's spotlight here

pacifictheme · Jul 4, 2015

Great for him to be quite honest. He was a world class player in his time and to still have that love and passion. Brilliant to see. Must have a real love for the game.

Giving something back as well i'd imagine. Could probably earn far more on tv but hes at a second division team. It must raise their profile substantially. Anyone know if its his home town club or anything?

Here, have some more, you deserve it.

:lol:

united_99 · Jul 4, 2015

Haha, great thread. Still my favourite Brazilian player (though I admit Ronaldo was an even better player in his short prime).

But Neymar is still so young and not far off of replacing Rivaldo as my favourite Brazilian player.

villain · Jul 4, 2015

I spit out my tea when you blamed it on your phone! Brilliant stuff

Successful · Jul 4, 2015

What on earth is he trying to say? Best post of the year :lol:
