Brazilian sports paper Placar has an interesting article on its website, which perfectly illustrates just how many top quality players are produced in Brazil every year.
The article lists starting elevens for twelve of the top flight clubs, comprised entirely of players who came through their youth systems, but who may have since left for Europe or other Brazilian sides.
