he is good for the counter attack. but is he a physical player who tackles a lot ? it's up for debate.
Yes he does actually, he wins loads of tackles and interceptions. One of the best in Europe statistically IIRC for it hence why we bought him.
i always thought he was more of an interceptor.
okay, so he tackles a lot as well.
fernandinho's problem is that paulinho, gustavo and ramires have been involved in the build up to the world cup and i think it wouldn't be professional for scolari to drop them . then there's many brazilian CM's who can called up instead of fernandinho. e.g. hernanes.

unless manchester city can win one or two trophies this season, i think fernandinho is not going to make it. scolari probably isn't aware that man city is now one of the elite clubs in england.
he must be thinking that liverpool and tottenham are bigger and better.
