Brazil 2014 (Official Thread)

[Francesco]

Thats so very true
Maxwell - David Luiz - Marquinhos - Dani Alves
Marcelo - Dante - Thiago Silva - Maicon
God damn

I'm impressed homie...
Weird enough Brazil's team has plenty of impressive defenders & not that many impressive forwards like they use to.

Different times, whew.
I still feel they shouldve had Costa.
I remember when they had Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Rivaldo, a younger Kaka
Now the have like.. Hulk, Neymar and Oscar.

I know... Argentina's arsenal of forwards though... Not even enough spots for all of them in the full roster.

[Francesco]

Hah yeah, poor Argentines.

Higuain, Messi, Aguero, Tevez, Lavezzi, di Maria, Palacio, Lamela, Milito. Holy shit, haha.

Right... 3 & even possibly 4 players outta those 9 aren't gonna make the full roster.

Start only with Di Maria and Messi and you're done, son.

Actually all those separately are good enough to make any other team full roster... Argentina too if they were not packed that way.

You are the one who definitely gotta be there... & that's because your country is gonna win it IMO my brother.

even if they get eliminated 1st I have to go cause i might never be this close to a wc again, hopefully you're right though

It's either Argentina or Brazil... it's tricky though 'cuz Brazil is gonna definitely have some help with the ref decisions here & there but at the same time that pressure can kill them. There's always incredible pressure on the Brazilian coaches & players while on those tournaments, let alone right now when they host the damn thing.
The funny thing is... at some point that might more or less feel like Coppa America & that will make difference to what a WC is for the strong European teams.
This definitely is going to be some insane WC if we talk about passion so you really gotta be there homie.

I really wish an African team can get big on this one

African teams don't have such impressive squads like they did in Italia 90 & USA 94 World Cups though... they always lack something ever since.

Ghana was brilliant last World Cup, its a shame that Suarez cheated them out

fucking idiot

fucking idiot

That's true... Ghana & Gyan did great but they still lacked a lot comparing to what Cameroon had in Italia 90 or to what Nigeria had in USA 94. The other thing is they kinda were the hosts of this WC as South Africa couldn't really compete.
I was actually gonna say African teams waited for so long to have a WC in Africa & when that finally happened they weren't ready for it.
I totally agree with you about Suarez... it's a shame he acts like an idiot that often considering the fact he's so fucking talented.

This WC is for Brazil. Spain isn't that super team anymore and Brazil is getting better and playing at home will be a great point in their favour.

About Portugal, I don't believe we go further than quarter finals, tbh.

The lack of super forwards & the crazy pressure might stumble Brazil's team... of course they're definitely still the hot favorite. On another note if Argentina finds way to make their unstable defense good enough... they'll definitely fucking run that WC.
