Over the past three years and quite problematic and a half, Adriano Leite Ribeiro many people have tried to help him. Who have tried his coach, Roberto Mancini and Jose Mourinho, the first several injections with the kind of trust holder can start it even in circumstances where the precarious state it strongly discouraged from using or giving him the chance to smile again for a few weeks to reach people care in Brazil, the Portuguese parent by making more technical reasons for it as few others have been able to do. Who have experienced teammates who, in spite of the ridiculous rumors that have him unpopular with the large group to Argentina this Appiano Gentile, never failed to lend him support and advice. Thou hast tried the whole society, headed by the indulgent president Massimo Moratti, that has always forgiven all forms of misconduct (and from 2006 to today, delays and pitfalls of various kind have been several) continuing to pour millions of renewed hope and rivers on the current account. Who have tried and finally the fans, always ready to support him and show him affection and that the gigantic South American had just returned from a splendid double win in the derby, or came from months in which, instead of attacking the network, was simply to swell its belly. Adriano however, probably the victim of un'infida disease of the mind that led him to have less and less respect and self-esteem, these people just paid off with a series of regrets and vain promises uninterrupted not to fall more in the old mistakes that were occasionally situations after some good performances, suitable only to deceive that he would finally come in especially appreciated the overwhelming champion seasons riding the sudden death of his father in the summer of 2004. A string of exciting performances that then he had earned the nickname "Emperor" and, through uncontrollable physical power associated with the agile Brazilian bravura and a lefty to gun cotton, had driven in just twenty-two to be counted among the attackers strongest and most complete in the world. A talent in itself significant but had the not an easy task to continue to grow - primarily at the tactical level - and continue in time, to manage the inevitable increase in pressure from the mass-media (which, especially in recent years have often focused only on its indelicately unprofessional private life) and at the same time a moral obligation to remain with their feet planted firmly on the ground: if this sum is the nostalgia for distant relatives and the melancholic feeling of solitude made some time after the death of the beloved father Almir , one can understand, but do not justify what it has led to a life overly unruly married then with alcohol abuse. A constraint that currently is a major problem for young people less well known and well off the Rio player, think they can really have fun or chase away the bad thoughts with the help of ephemeral devastating high-proof drinks.
Make a crown, metaphorically represented by the achievement of success and wealth, has never been easier: it is still less if the person who comes to wear modest spending comes from a childhood in one of the many needy slums of his native Rio de Janeiro, a city of great tourist attraction that historically do not know middle ground (prosperity for few and poverty for many, carnival is celebrated with pomp mixed with the frequent murders for a handful of money) and that from there on a day Agostini of the millennium, made from Adriano to conquer Europe. Indeed, it was the evening of August 14, 2001, the legendary theater "Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid, that he did so that the onset of the unknown boy in the Nerazzurri shirt in Vila Cruzeiro remain indelible in the Inter fans who saw the prestigious friendly between the ranks of Hector Cuper and worthy threat to the Real: came to about ten minutes from the end on the result of 1-1, the nineteen year-old South American, freshly harvested from Flamengo in return for the second half of the tag of Vampeta, stunned everyone with a superb winning goal a free-kick and a series other play of high school worthy of a true predestined. A predestined that within the next twenty four months, spent partly in Milan and partly on loan at Parma and Florence, would have won wide praise and consideration of all insiders of amazed and beyond.
Then, just before dawn while Inter was one of the brightest periods of its history and revelers that culminated last weekend with the achievement of the seventeenth-deserved championship, starting in the 2006 athlete began verdeoro cram too much wickedness in the curriculum: training omitted or performed badly due to the previous nights they were going to add up to good habits food that is inconsistent with a professional of such proportions that it was increasingly relying on various beers and drinks as a last attempt to compensate for the lost happiness of a young man whose fame and money seemed to exist only to remind him that he had the responsibility - and by that time was defiance - and then amplify the sense of dissatisfaction quell'inquieto called depression. Since then, the competitive path of the 'Emperor' has too many moments of darkness alternating with occasional flashes of comforting recovery, useful only to dazzle and to emphasize the inability of the tip carioca no longer being able to be stable up to the enormous potential physical and technical held.
The kicker, at least to some degree, perhaps not recoverable (the recent termination of the contract with the Beloved and the subsequent return to the very competitive tournament are probably Brazilian test): the man, however, you must save it. The only hope to do now is to Adriano who, through a new-found serenity, will debut in its new phase of life as he did eight years ago in Madrid with great personality and inner strength, surprising everyone and ripping endless applause.
