neymar is such a selfish f*cker. At the end when he got fouled there was such a good pass to the right. Whole match he has been selfish

Wonder how Neymar would do in Serie A.

We would have a statistic of the player with most time on the ground. As I said before, Neymar is the weak link for Brazil. Either Mano still decides to make Neymar a star or try to win the world cup.

the only thing they have in common is that they seem to be balding.

I will say this again. Neymar. Is. Fucking. Trash:fp:

This whole Brazil squad is pure shit. Their defense is shit. Midfield is shit. Attack is shit. They're just a bunch of talented individuals playing on the same pitch. There's no tactics, everyone on the brazil squad is aimlessly moving around the pitch save for rare exchanges of brilliance on Marcelo's side. Brazilians would be delusional to think this squad has what it takes to win the WC and its partly because they have such a ABSOLUTELY SHIT coach at the helm in Menezes. I mean seriously, wtf are his tactics anyways? give the ball to neymar!? wtf can he do? As you saw against Mexico, pit him up against a decent international D and he can't do shit. There were various occasions throughout the match where he could've simply made the simple outlet pass but instead opted to wow and dazzle by trying to dribble through 4 fucking defenders. It may work out in that shit brazilian league but against actual defenses, its one big fail.


Like a poster mentioned above the weak link in this Brazil squad has to be Menezes and Neymar. Save from the first US game, Neymar has been a mile short of spectacular and in my opinion is only a player who can dribble a ball at an alarmingly fast pace.

In short FUCK the hype called Neymar and I can't wait to laugh at the team who picks up this trash of a player.

I wouldn't call them thrash cause this definitely was not the strongest lineup they can put out. Also, there was definitely some talent on the field. I would love to have guys like Sandro, Oscar, Marcelo, Hulk at Milan.

Brazil has zero organization under Mano. I felt sorry at times for Silva as it look like he was the only one capable of defending properly.

It look like he did. As I said before, Neymar is the problem for Brazil because he gets license to play; however, he likes. I was surprised though that Hulk tried to compete many times with Neymar on who it is player with more time possessing the ball. From this game and the one against USA, the player that seems have got a starting position for Brazil is Oscar. Brazil seems that without Lucas Leiva in midfield seems very unbalanced. Clearly, Brazil needs new RB and LB for the world cup; though, TS33 and David Luiz should be the starting CBs.

Lucas seems to have better flow on his game but still overcontrolled the ball. I did not understand why he enter in the game at all when Mexico was near their box.

The Mexican International squad is all about beating you with blistering speed, and brilliant crosses. You shut that speed down, keep the crosses from coming into the box, you whoop Mexico's ass.

Chicharito is slightly talented Inzaghi. There really nothing special about him or his game overall. He is pretty limited. He has excellent movement and has a nose for goal but that it.

In saying that, I think he better than Pato right now. Pato has regress too much as a player IMO.

I agree with Oscar but the rest where completely lost in the field. MAno seems overwhelmed with all the pool of players he has but does not have a tactical idea how to approach a game when losing.

Hard to really say he's regressed since he hasn't had much of an opportunity to find his form. His injuries suck, sure... But to say Chicharito is a better player than him at this point? Please.

If were talking about better overall International players? MAYBE Chicharito would have a slight edge, but he doesn't impress me much playing for Man U.

Look at Diego Forlan... Plays outstanding for his country in International fixtures... Blows donkey balls for his clubs.

32 goals in 2 seasons despite only being a first 11 player for about 5 months overall is fairly impressive.

Pato is hardly ever fit, he also pretty inconsistent and has not show much of anything since Carlo left. So, It hard for me to say he better than someone like Chicharito who I don't rate btw.

Didn't mean to bait you into this, although I knew you'd join the discussion. :lol:

Truth is, they're both VERY young players with their best years ahead of them. Both of them have all the potential in the world to be feature strikers.

0-0 draw in the US-Canada game. Klinsmann was running a bit of an experimental formation tonight... WAY too crowded in the midfield to get anything positive going. I'd love to see the US run a 4-1-3-2, they just seem like they'd thrive by not crowding the midfield with a 4-4-2 type formation.

I'd love to see something like this for the World Cup Qualifiers:

------------------Howard----------------

Cherundolo-Bocanegra-Goodson-Johnson or Castillo

-----------------Jones or Bradley---------------

--Donovan-------Dempsey--------Torres---

--------------Gomez---Altidore--------------

i think their best formation is some sort of 4-3-3, 4-4-2 hybrid


attack/mid should be like this

Dempsey-------Gomez-------Donovan

Torres----------Bradley-------Jones

Both Dempsey and Donovan have the ability to drop deeper into the midfield out wide. almost with a 4-5-1.

BTW, that Left-back who plays in the Bundesliga is really good:thumbsup:

I just don't like Dempsey out on the wing like that. I'd MUCH rather have him as more of an AM, to facilitate and create passing lanes. He's clearly our most talented player on the US squad, may as well utilize him to the fullest.

And way to quote it with my 4-1-3-1 formation :fp: I fixed the post, so the formation ACTUALLY makes sense. :lol:

Lmao. Yeah I agree about dempsey, but when donovan drops to Right midfield, the Dempsey moves in as a second striker and vice-versa.

You live in Ohio? I live in Michigan, we are neighbors.

That's why it'd be nice to have a formation with one striker (Gomez), that way Dempsey can move into the second striker role. I guess, when I was suggesting a formation, I should have gone with a 4-2-3-1, but I don't know how well Bradley would play as more of an attacking CDM.

Please tell me your are an MSU fan! *fingers crossed*

:lol: Good man! We, here in Ohio, respect MSU, but HATE, HATE, HATE Michigan.

You have plans to go to any of the Milan friendlies in the states? Was going to go to the Pittsburgh friendly, but when details were coming together slowly, I got a little apprehensive. So now I'm trying to see Milan-Madrid at Yankee Stadium.
