Better to Attack or Defend..? Which gameplay plan should Brazil choose?

[Joey]

"the best way to defend is to attack"... a very famous saying in Brazil soccer history..

However it seems, that they are not using this plan and instead are defending in any possible was.. in other words, they play disorgannised soccer with no creativity, whatsoever, and just rely on lucky chyances like in argentina and paruguay matches, in an effort to stop that ball from simply crossing their line...

But is it working...?

Well, Big Phile, is this kind of a person in his own mind.. and he has no problem with it.. he has been using it for years in club soccer.. but one has to ask himself, will that work in international soccer, where the worlds best compete...?

In my own opinion.. his results speak for themselves.. they are simply struggling...

I for one, love brazzilian soccer, and how it used to be the mother of all.. however i really don't mind this new technique if it works and it simply WINS... but its not, so why use it over again and again... pointless really.

yup, things look bad, and the team looks even worse. Some of those players... I dunno, maybe Scolari has this big master plan I can't see, but some of the boys are just below the expected level.

The substitutions only made matters worse; Euller did even less than Elber (who never shot at goal, but at least was harassing the defenders and complicating their lives); Vampeta was nowhere to be seen (those Flamengo players are useless!:mad: ) and, well, fielding Denilson on the 43rd minute is a bad joke.

I'm not even sure that the proper term is "team". "Team" sounds more like an organized unit, y'know? maybe the proper word would be the Brazilian "eleven". Or "bunch". Or "useless pieces of turd"...:boo:

Ah, well. Now we have to win at home, and hope for the best. I still think we can make it, but this Cup isn't going to be a pretty sight for us...:star: :star: :star: :star:
