This guy is the Jets new signing apparentenly he will be signed by monday.
Holy ****, he even has a name above his head.
PES-level shit.
And Pirates of the Caribbean music, lol.
Edit: If he spends as much time on the training ground as he does watching Sony Vegas tutorials on youtube I think it's safe to say he will walk this league. Glad I signed him.

Only allowed to play if he as his name above him at all times - do a deal with fox. Makes me think I'm playing fifa 12 and I've taken the jets to heaps of premierships with that!

I can't get my head around this karim ziani link, he's in the 1st year or so of a 3yr contract at a Qatari club and would be on decent coin and all of a sudden he's able to fit under our cap. We must have some serious coin left to use. If we do sign him I personally see him filling a broich type playmaking roving roll from one of the wide front three posys. That would probaly mean brown back into the mids, which I'd be happy to see as a think he has that all- round skill we need there. Just don't wanna see r griff on the right side. Just doesn't do it for me there

JETS SIGN BRAZILIAN ATTACKING MIDFIELDER
The Hunter Ports Newcastle Jets have signed Brazilian attacking midfielder Bernardo Ribeiro.
The 22-year-old, who also holds an Italian passport, is a product of the famed youth system of Brazilian giants Flamengo and has also spent time with Italian Serie A Club Catania.
Ribeiro was most recently with Albanian side Skënderbeu Korçë where he played in UEFA Champions League qualifying matches and was a key member of their team that won the 2011/12 Albanian Superliga title.
Newcastle Jets head coach Gary van Egmond said he was very pleased to have secured the services of Ribeiro for the 2012/13 A-League season.
“His junior football was at Flamengo and he’s obviously been really well schooled over there,” van Egmond said
“He was at Catania for six months and it was only because of a couple of issues with his work permit that he wasn’t able to play much there.
“He’ll get a good part of the pre-season with us which is excellent for him to have a chance to see how we do things and for us to see how we can best utilise him.
“All our discussions with Bernardo have been very positive and he is an ambitious player who is coming here with exactly the right mentality.”
Van Egmond said Ribeiro would help give the Jets a creative spark in the attacking third of the pitch.
“He’s able to beat people in a one-on-one in the middle of the park or in a wide area and he definitely has a point of difference,” van Egmond said.
“He’s exactly what we were looking for to add to what we have already as far as our squad is concerned.”
Jets CEO Robbie Middleby agreed with van Egmond's sentiments, saying he was excited to see Ribeiro representing the Newcastle Jets this coming season.
Ribeiro is expected to arrive in Australia later this week, before linking up with the rest of the Newcastle Jets squad as they continue to prepare for the start of the 2012/13 A-League season.
