Manchester City’s Brazilian star Robinho could re-claim the top spot in the FTBL Top 23 of Brazilian forwards after today’s game against Italy in the Confed Cup. With the leader in the rating, Wolfsburg’s Grafite, not in the Selecao, Robinho has collected 26 rating points so far and boosted his tally to 163.99 points.

Robinho will have a plank of 13 rating points to beat this evening, and with the gap with Grafite amounting to 15 rating points, a goal and victory for Brazil will more than guarantee the top spot for the Manchester City star.

Sevilla striker Luis Fabiano also has a shot at the top spot: his plank tonight will amount to just 6 rating points, and with 141.77 points over all, he ranks 3rd at the moment among top Brazilian forwards.
