(IMG: style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) It is not as much their perfectness than the sheer inability of this Brazilian team. Words will be written on what happened here, I'd rather not waste mine. But when a player like Hernanes who controls the midfield is just a token call up, the less said about the forward lineup the better, everything was (and is) broken and disjointed. It was just the Neymar Factor, and the Silva Marshalling of the defense that got them this far. Because otherwise, the inability had shown in all matches, from Hulk missing stupid chances, Fred and Jo chickening out, Marcelo playing just because he wore a certain shirt. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) Oscar being sacrificed for the inefficiency of the midfield. Completely agreed. Brazil have about 4-5 great players, the rest are mediocre at best. that said Germany can play flawless football against any team whether they dominate/win or not, but I don't enjoy them. Argentina or Holland, either one will be fine by me. |

We insist on getting one of our star players rushed back onto the field in- yes- an irresponsibly short-sighted manner 5 years ago and now you guys act as though our medical staff will meet every teenage signing, the first night of their arrival, armed with a sledgehammer, chainsaw and a thirst for torture...
Am i the only one who doesn`t understand why we should no longer go after youth because of pato? Ehhem! I don't think you got my point. I didn't say we should no longer have youngsters because of what happened to Pato, I was specifically talking about Neymar. |

QUOTE (dst @ Jun 24 2014, 11:40 PM) ![*](style_images/bullet/post_snapback.gif) I couldn't agree less, I don't think they played for the draw at all. They were the better team in the first half (or maybe I should say, the least bad team) and were looking for a goal. Obviously, they were never going to risk and concede I think the tactics were sound overall but they clearly lack quality upfront. They created nothing. they were in control, but were going for the draw the way they were playing. was that how they were gonna challenge for the world cup? they failed in their first real test which wasn't even this game. On a brighter note, I'm glad Pirlo's NT career ended like this. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
