licence to roam
Ronaldinho will be given free rein when Brazil defend their title in this summer's World Cup, coach Carlos Alberto Parreira claimed on Monday.
The 26-year-old Barcelona star has been handed the number 10 playmaker's shirt and will be given creative freedom by his coach to play where he wishes.
"Ronaldinho is a player that you cannot put in a specific place," said Parreira. "He needs freedom.
"Anyone who says that Ronaldinho plays on the right side at Barcelona is wrong. He plays with the ball at his feet all over the pitch.
"He goes wherever he wants and, in the national team, he'll have the same freedom."
