The big man has retired from professional football.

Favourite Dinho moments? Lots for me, all the tricks, the Joga Bonito stuff and mentoring Messi. The goal vs AC Milan, the goals vs Real Madrid at the Bernabeu, the goal at Stamford Bridge, so many goals.

But I'd go for this one, because no way did he mean to control the ball like that, but how he recovered the situation and scored just sums him up, you never knew what he was going to do.

Tried so many times to do the elastico after seeing him do it, and actually pulled it off in training once, through the defenders legs, to a chorus of 'ooooh!'s and applause from my team mates

Definitely the most unique player I've ever seen and even had some of my mates who don't like football interested in the matches to see him pull off another one of his circus tricks.
