Worst. Brazil Team. Ever.

*jazz hands*

On the other hand, they literally have a player called Fred playing at a world cup

Hopefully Brazil doesn't win the World Cup because I'm afraid a few people here might kill themselves if they do.

What about if Brazil riot if they lose?

Man, you know what, I think 2010's squad was worse overall. It just had better coaching.

That team could have won the world cup but lol Dunga was dumb enough to play Felipe Melo

Man. that tournament was weird. I'm still remaining pessimistic about Brazil's chances because our hyped squads usually do worse, therefore it's my civic duty to say everyone and everything is poo poo.

Also, 2010's squad had Robinho and Luis Fabiano as strikers, gently caress that poo poo.

Like this squad has better strikers lol

Whatever happened to Ganso did he just turn out to be a bit poo poo?

I'm still expecting Fred to get dropped for Willian so Neymar can play as a striker, if he's not injured anyway

If Maxwell can play both wings that is why, but I agree about Filipe Luis. Neither Maicon or Alves is good enough anymore though, even if Maicon has realised his flaws unlike Alves

Yeah this might be more accurate.

Any Milan fan knows that Pato is wildly bad though

I thought he was good at Milan, just a cripple?

They're not playing particularly well and kicking the poo poo out of other teams

Fred has been poo poo even when we won though. He deserves it.

The defense deserve it for getting sliced apart so easily so often

On other news, it is widely rumored that the next coach will be Tite (of Corinthians fame). Of course, with CBF, I doubt anything will change. There will still be spots set aside for players some agent wants to sell to Europe, and the team still will spend more time recording commercials than practicing.

This isn't unique to Brazil

Sandro had a column in the Sun yesterday in which he pretty much sounded the everything is fine alarm. The result was a freak, and how could anyone be critical of Brazil when the same group of players dominated last year. Also David Luiz was the best player in the tournament and Germany don't play great football.

England players have more self awareness.

Zico was rather more scathing

Scolari officially out. Of course, changing just him won't fix anything. Saw data the other day that there are over 250 active players with at least one national team call up. There is and will continue to be zero long term planning and continuity, as the objective will still be to fool some European or Qatari team into spending a boatload of money on some "Brazil national team member."

250 lmao. Brazil are so hosed

Worked for Spain

He'd have done great with this squad imo. His mistake last world cup was letting Melo anywhere near the team. Van Bommel and Melo on the pitch was only ever going to end one way
