International Friendlies May/June

Bein commentator said Perisic barely touch Jesus's shirt but he acted like he has been stabbed. :lol:
And before, he got tackled, goes down, he is almost dead, Oliver doesn't whistle foul, Brazil continues playing, Jesus gets up and starts running like Bolt. Such a punchable caracter.
 
Brazilian midfield is pants and overkill with 3dms, presumably Coutinho will be moved back down the middle as an AM once Neymar returns?
 
Croatia is taking this friendly a bit too serious. I wouldn't put Neymar in if I was Brazil coach.

Didn't Brazil play most of their matches like this?

I just laugh watching him doing theatrical in this match. He get along very well with Neymar and took one or two trick from his book.
 
Indeed, no creativity at all.

"I think their talent is fantastic and the creativity of the Brazilian player cannot be measured. If a European team, like, very European, could have a Brazilian in their squad, it would bring a 'Brazilian thing' to the game and I think that's very important. - Jose Mourinho
 
Caleta-Car....that's a new name for me in this Croatian squad.

Didn’t watch them that much but I think you’re right, still even in a game like this they can have Firmino/Jesus playing on the wing instead of one of their dms.
 
This shite is whack. God damn international football.

It's one of those things where you constantly forget how boring it really is, you go in, and you are reminded of how annoying it is.
 
Renato Agusto was Brazil's AM in world cup qualifying, he scored a few goals although injury for today along with Douglas Costa.

Friendlies boring, real qualifers aren't.
 
Not yet, and doesn't look like he's coming on any time soon.

Fred's way down the pecking order for Brazil central midfield. Will probably see more of him after this World cup....along with Fabinho. ;)
 
Only thing that surprises me is Marquinhos not starting, either at CB or right back.

Miranda-Silva has vast experience but I dunno they've looked cumbersome at times today against Croatia attack.
 
Tite is actually a worse coach than Dunga and Scolari.

Fernandinho Paulinho and Casemiro just might be the worst midfield in a Brazil shirt i've ever seen since none of them can dribble or attempt good through balls.

Thiago Silva should not be anywhere near the squad, let alone the starting XI.

Lastly, Willian and Coutinho are good club players who don't deliver with Brazil, I am really worried about us having the worst World Cup since 1990.
 
Neymar is back then, like he'd never been away for four months.

Indeed. :D

It's surprising how players like Paulinho manage to make the cut though. One of the most average Brazilian midfielders I've seen.

He really isn't, look at your results in Commebol since he took over. Brazil actually played with fluency again.

If you want a coach making terrible squad decisions look no further than 2014.
 
Poor choice of wording by the commentator on Liverpool TV:

"Neymar adored by his country, followed closely by the media. We tend to shoot our players down half the time."

Sly dig at Raheem? :nervous:

Quoted for when Brazil wins the WC.
 
Man we really could've done with Perisic last season. He has a wand of a left foot, his crosses from the wing are a treat. Would have been food and drink for Lukaku.

Feck you Inter for playing hardball :mad:
 
Heard some boo’s for Coutinho which is disappointing. I don’t think he deserves that.
 
Could Mandzukic not play as a link man in this Croatia side?

Failing that get Ivica Olic out of retirement, pretty sure he could still run all day for them!
