Roberto Carlos: Real Madrid coach saved me

Roberto Carlos has shown how Fabio Capello has played a major role in turning the Brazilians into one of the best leftists in the world.

He's been pointing to Inter under the direction of Roy Hodgson since almost “destroyed”.

Hodgson placed Roberto Carlos in the midfield, despite the Brazilian playing left defense that later became one of the best in the world in that position.

"Roy Hodgson ruined me at Interi, he made me play in the midfield”," Carlos told Marca.

“I'd have a chance to play for Brazil while we had the 1997 Cup of America in front of us.

We didn't get along well, but I didn't know European football well”

The 47-year-old spent 1995/96 on Inter and then moved to Madrid, where the coach was Fabio Capello.

I talked to Morati and asked him to let me go. I went to Madrid for Capello, and he's the most important coach I've ever had”.

Carlos wore Real 11 seasons' fan, made 527 presentations, scored 69 goals, and donated 88 assists.
