I was fierce excited by the signing, not least because Lucas was going to be in the Brazil U20 world cup squad that summer. I was living in Montreal for a few months and I was looking forward to seeing Liverpool’s new box to box wunderkind in action. Lucas was also the captain of that squad. Turns out poor Lucas got injured in lead up to tournament and had to pull out. I went to see Brazil twice in that tournament (there were two double headers on the same week so I saw both). They came third in a group including USA, Poland and South Korea.
