Just in time to get some minutes for the important friendly Brazil - Portugal in 6 days, Paolo Ferreira was in the starting lineup in Chelsea 1-1 Burnsley, Carling Cup game (Nov 12, 2008). What a relief to see him come on in regular time not after the 90th minute. In Blackburn 0-2 Chelsea Ferreira came on after the 90th minute.

I hope Paolo Ferreira moves to another club at least on loan this January. It's obvious that Scolari will put Bosingwa in the starting lineup without much turnover. More than once Ferreira was a substitute after the 90th minute. Why stay if the coach 'doesn't count on you' so to speak?
