As Fernandez Esperenda failed to rise to the challenge he is now sacked as all time Brazil manager - and I am appointed in his place. Here is the squad:

Goalkeepers
Claudio Taffarel, Emerson Leao, Gilmar

Defenders
Djalma Santos, Cafu, Nilton Santos, Roberto Carlos, Luis Perreira, Lucio, Aldair, Edinho

Midfielders
Falcao, Gerson, Didi, Rivelino, Zico, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, Socrates

Forwards
Garrincha, Pele, Jairzinho, Ronaldo

is it true that Garrincha had one leg shorter than the other?

Yes 6 cm shorter, but nevertheless there are some people who rate him higher than Pele.
