“Cristiane is a very special player,” said Red Stars Head Coach Emma Hayes. “Her finishing ability is clinical, and her strike rate is truly remarkable. More importantly, she fits the Red Stars and the way we want to play.”

The Brazilian striker joins an already potent attack that features US Women’s National Team forward Megan Rapinoe and English forward Karen Carney. Chicago also holds the WPS playing rights to U.S. National Team players Lindsay Tarpley and Carli Lloyd.


Let the happy dance begin! Cool

She's a deadly striker, probably the best in the world right now.
Corinthians will miss her, but this is a great opportunity.

Carney's gonna love playing alongside someone like her and playing crosses in to her. Then she's gonna come back to train with England and go mental with the likes of Eniola Aluko in the middle instead.

What do you guys think of our Swedish goalie? Where does she probably rank among the best goalies in the world?

Don't know that much about her, but goalkeeper is probably the weakest position in the women's game in terms of overall talent level and depth.
I guess anyone who won't score an own goal should be ok. Laughing
