	Juninho: Dry your eyes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Juninho can leave for this final time with his head held high.
		And as we've said before, in the final itself, when Juninho picked up the ball late in the game, he weaved his way across Bolton territory with a determination to keep the ball that would have took three Bolton teams to wrestle it away from him.
		Having seen what was missing from his developing team the previous season, when he took Carbone on loan, and watched with interest what sway this kind of talismatic player can hold over a crowd, he made a bold decision to bring back the very man that overstayed his welcome with previous boss Bryan Robson.

	Juninho - Definition, explanation
		Juninho, full name Osvaldo Giroldo Junior, also known as Juninho Paulista, (born March 22, 1973 in São Paulo) is a Brazilian football (soccer) midfielder, a World Cup winner in 2002.
		He made headways in England when he signed for Middlesbrough in 1995, as his classy play was a delight for Boro fans, but not enough to save the club from relegation in 1997.
		Juninho would switch to Atlético Madrid for two seasons, come back to Middlesbrough for 1999-2000, move back to Brazil with Vasco da Gama and Flamengo, before returning -- for his third stint -- to Boro in 2002.

		An enforcer in midfield, an accomplished passer of the ball and a natural born leader, he perhaps suffers for not being king of the stepover or the scissor kick, tantamount to a cardinal sin for a Brazilian player.

		Juninho took to Europe like a duck to water, not only because of his dead ball skills but also thanks to some good advice from Sonny Anderson, former star striker with OL.
