    39 goals and 40 assists in 63 matches and winning the first ever brasilian treble is ABSURD! TRUE LEGEND even if he didnt't reach the heights in europe, he gave it all and never gave up
  • In turkey, he did things for my club Fenerbahce that will be spoken about for generations to come. He was 26 when he came. Played 8 seasons and left his mark in every single season. Left with half a dozen trophies and a statue by the stadium. Salut to Doctor aka Alex and salut to daily dose of football for telling his story.🫡

    Incrivel que nem mesmo no Brasil existe conteudo contando tao profundametne a historia do alex como voce fez, parabens pelo excelente trabalho, voce e foda.

    I'm a Flamengo fan, but his 2003 in Cruzeiro was nuts. Maybe Neymar's 2011 in Santos could compare to it, but no other player was this dominant in the Brazilian league in the last 25 years at least. Edmundo had a fantastic season in 1998... and maybe we really need to go back to Zico to find a good comparison. He is my idol in football. I wanted to be like him. Brazilians and Turks always knew he was massively underrated. Maybe the rest of the world can catch up...

    As a Galatasaray fan, I’m glad you decided to tell the story of Alex. Alex played straight 8 seasons for our rival Fenerbahçe, being a total nightmare for those he played against, especially Galatasaray. But he was loved by all the football fans in Turkey, regardless of the team. He became a legend for his genius skills with the ball, insane statistics of goals and assists. More importantly, he was a true character both in and out of the field. At a time when it was common for 30+ aged star players to come Turkey for big amounts of money, without playing much; he became a legend like george hagi. I wish him all the best, not only for his skills but also for his character as a person. ❤ Alex de Souza
  • @Rondoro
    Alex is a legend in Turkiye. Everyone even the most hateful opponent fans respect and love him. He played 9 seasons for Fenerbahçe and there is even a statue of him in the city written "Great captain alex de souza"
  • @M4lik656
    Turkey'll never forget him he is our legend
  • @oladobe
    Até quando retornou ao Brasil. jogando pelo Coritiba, colocou o time na liderança do campeonato. Jogava demais!!!
  • @murtiigulgen
    I am so glad Alex de Souza is finally getting the recognition he deserves outside of Brazil and Turkiye. As a Fenerbahçe fan and as someone who has met Alex and played football with him, he definitely had the talent to play in the biggest clubs in Europe at the time of his prime just like Ronaldinho and Zidane. He was something else and I am so glad to have met him, his family and played with him. Muito Obrigado Alex! 🇹🇷🇧🇷💛💙

    OH MAN. Captain Alex ! As a Turkish football fan, and also as a Galatasaray fan (Fenerbahçe's rivals) it was a privilage to watch him. He loved by all the fans in Turkey, even rival fans as me... Legend will be never forgotten!!
  • @scafutto
    As a Cruzeiro fan, I can say I've never been to the stadium so many times as I did in 2003, all that to see this guy playing. He was by far the best player I've watched playing in a stadium (and I've seen the young Ronaldo playing in Cruzeiro too). In 2003, I can surely say that he was the best player in the world, no one did the things he did, it was a magical year, a spectacle, incomparable!
  • @Phony-1907
    Alex is the greatest football player I have seen with my eyes. For me no other player can get close to him. I have watched so many games he touchs the ball 5 times in all game and finish with 1 goal-2 asists. He stayed at Fenerbahçe 8 years and I havent missed a single match he played at our home court. Since he was sent, I havent gone to a match. İt just feels something is missing.
  • As a Cruzeiro fan, he is my favourite player ever!! His performances in 2003 were symple out of this word. That team is regarded by many as one of the greatest in Brazil's history. Not just us fans. And as you can read in the comments, he is also beloved in Turkey. It is a shame he didn't get to shine in the biggest stages. He definitely had talent for that. Luck us who were privileged to watch him
  • @Bjsouza1
    Thanks for this video! It's comforting to know that more people outside of Brazil recognize Alex's greatness. Even though I'm Brazilian and privileged to have seen Alex play up close for years, his career is one of the biggest injustices in world football. He never got the glory or spotlight that his career truly deserved even though he is said to be a GENIUS by other legends. Alex is considered by fans in Brazil to be the most technically refined player of his entire generation, even more so than the legends Ronaldo and Ronaldinho. He is truly one of the best and most underappreciated players I have ever seen. If you ask in Brazil how Alex was left off the list for the 2002 World Cup? Not even the players themselves at the time know.
  • @pedroguedes278
    We as brazilians, learned with Alex (and many other great players examples) that in CBF competitions and EVEN MORE in the Brazil's national teams list, THERE'RE maybe more politics than pure talents names. A shame he only went to our national team to play friendless and others minor games...
  • @claudiocastro790
    I'm a Cruzeiro fan, Alex was the best player I've ever seen play at the club, and in 2003 he had the best midfield season I've experienced in Brazilian football, here in MG he will be an eternal idol.
  • @rezai3246
    Alex with his personality and abilities on the pitch had one thing in common with the likes of Ronaldinho. He made football fun. He will always be remembered as a legend at Fenerbahce. He left us in 2012, due to a 'falling out' with the chairman, and honestly - Fenerbahce has yet to fully recover from that blow
  • The world may wish to erase him from memory, but every Fenerbahçe fan will remember him with eternal gratitude.
  • @paulowaleski
    i'm a Coritiba fan, and i had the pleasure to see his carrier end here, saw him play, saw him do things i never saw any other player do before, love him!
