Of all the strikers who have represented Brazil in a World Cup, Fred will probably go down as the most hated, if not the worst of all time.

Having shouldered much of the blame for Verde-Amarela's World Cup disaster home soil, -- the fact Fred did not play defense in Brazil's fateful semifinal loss  Germany is besides the point -- it's no surprise he's got a lot of pent-up anger in that head of his.

Whatever happened to joga bonito? As the kids these days would say: Fred has no chill.

Fluminense went on to lose the game, 1-0.
