Menezes Names 24 Man Squad For August Friendly
Por David Wilson
In his first major action as Brazil coach, Mano Menezes has released the names of his 24 man squad that will face the USA in a friendly next month. I have to warn you though, it is not short of surprises. Of course what everyone wants to know is whether Dinho made the cut.

Unfortunately the Milan star along with Ronaldo and Adriano were not so lucky. However, what is even more surprising is the fact that Kaka, and Inter‘s treble winning goalie Julio Cesar are not in the squad. Now, i know that this is a new era in Brazilian football however, that does not mean you cut off your key players.
