Viva Bielsa.
Even San Marino scored today and Brazil couldn’t put a shot on target.
Sky is the limit for bielsa with this group of players. Perfect mix of technique and garra charrua
I’m so glad Darwin gets to work with Bielsa at the national team level.
You just reminded me that Alexis Sanchez got to work under Bielsa, Pep, Mourinho, Simeone and Wenger. I would love to ask him about each and how they compare.
Histórico.
Estos leones.
Gracias muchachos
I hate to be that guy, but I’ll have to be that guy: Diniz has a Libertadores final in less than 20 days, it could be the biggest title of his career and Fluminense’s history. How dedicated is he to the NT right now?
I mean, it’s not his fault, it’s CBF president for hiring him.
Wait, Diniz is actually doing the Football Manager ‘manage club and country at the same time’ thing in real life? I didn’t think I’d ever see that lmao, it’s so clearly a bad idea. Why did the Brazilian Football Confederation accept it?
After watching both games, I’m inclined to agree. I don’t see anything of substance when the players are on the field. This is like a part-time night job for Diniz.
Tabarez lost all his matches against Brazil with embarrassing results. It turns out Uruguay had good players all along and should have been playing these kind of matches as a big team. Yes, this Brazil is weak, but results against Brazil and Argentina during Tabarez tenure were embarrassing, the guy was phobic when he had to face the other south american giants.
Lol you never look at the other coach, do you ? We never lost a single Qualifier under Tite, you coud have Tabarez, Bielsa or whatever and still going to lose
Thanks today win to that dumbass Fernando Diniz.
First loss to Uruguay friendly or competitive since July, 2001
First World Cup Qualifying loss since September, 2015
We had last lost to a Chilean side in Chile that didn’t even qualify lol
Brazil don’t have a plan. They shouldn’t be building around Neymar. Historically, those Brazilian superstars don’t age well. They currently don’t have a consistent 9. It seems like Luis Fabiano was their last real 9.
Also weird decision, in hindsight, from Diego Costa to represent Spain back in 2014. And spain started to be shit from that point
Adriano was great
I know the Selecao had to move on from Tite, but they would never have suffered a result like this under him
No it would have happened at the World Cup instead lol
Tite is a great coach. People forget how it was before him: Dunga, Scolari, Menezes, Dunga again.
Brazil played horribly before him. Tite was the one to change the team to one of the favourites to win the WC. Without him, we would have fared much worse in 18 and 22.
We were eliminated in the qfs both WCs. I think Tite definitely deserves credit for how time with the NT but I can’t ever forget his lack of plan b, c and d that led to our elimination in the QFs.
I love how in everything Brazil post 1/3 of the comments is why Alisson isn’t starting it also seems to be from people that aren’t brazilian. Crazy that this is happening.
I don’t think Brazil would have won with him, since our team just sucks in general and the on’es that shuldn’t are sucking ex: Vini and Gabriel Jesus, but they could have drawn or a 1-0 instead.
That’s genuinely one of the worst performances from Brazil, ever. 1 shot on target, and the entire team looked clueless.
Drop Marquinhos and Casemiro, play a midfield 3 of André, Guimarães, Paqueta to not get overrun, and play attackers based on performances for the Seleção, not for their clubs. Martinelli/Rodrygo should be ahead of Vinicius for the LW (who has been nothing short of abysmal), and Raphinha is the nailed on the starter for the RW.
Neymar continues to carry that attack, and now he’ll be out for months. That game against Argentina might be embarrassing if things don’t change.
Martinelli/Rodrygo should be ahead of Vinicius for the LW (who has been nothing short of abysmal), and Raphinha is the nailed on the starter for the RW.
Raphinha is literally the worst winger we have by a mile.
Martinelli had one game to try to do shit and guess what we lost to fucking Cameroon while Vinicius was our best attacking player during WC.
Lmfao you clearly didnt watch that WC game. Or at the very least remember it. Martinelli was the only person doing things that game.
Vinicius was our best attacking player during WC
yeah, he really made the difference in the WC, we wouldn’t have done it without him.
Vini Jr is the better player, but he is a shadow of himself playing for Brazil with these tactics, Martinelli overall had more impact every time he was on the field, and that was true for the last game as well.
I am sick of it! All those trash CF can go to hell!
Marcos Leonardo and Vitor Roque NOW!
With all due respect but they will probably be overhyped and fail. The level of talent in Brazil and also Italy is at an all time low rn.
No one gets scared of Brazil anymore, Cameroon and Morroco showed that. Brazil is not scary anymore… I will way again, Brazil won’t win any more WC until they get an new Ronaldo or Ronaldinho.
Oh is that all? They just need to get a new all-time great attacking player?
Doesn’t work like that, brazils biggest problem is mental in my opinion. The pressure seems to break these players in the biggest moments.
ugarte wwhat a beast
