    I know the Selecao had to move on from Tite, but they would never have suffered a result like this under him

      Tite is a great coach. People forget how it was before him: Dunga, Scolari, Menezes, Dunga again.

      Brazil played horribly before him. Tite was the one to change the team to one of the favourites to win the WC. Without him, we would have fared much worse in 18 and 22.

        We were eliminated in the qfs both WCs. I think Tite definitely deserves credit for how time with the NT but I can’t ever forget his lack of plan b, c and d that led to our elimination in the QFs.

    We need to rebuild this team from the ground up, no more Marquinhos/Casemiro/Neymar and players from the 2018/2022 cycle, none of them has shown real leadership under the NT and are just embarrassing them selfs and the NT, if we can’t get anything out of our most experienced players then it’s time to start investing in the next generation. Robert Renan, Murillo, Danilo, João Gomes, Vitor Roque, Endrick, Marcos Leonardo, etc all must be in the squad for 2026.

      Yeah, obviously they are talented players, but they have to be one of the worst generations in terms of tournament success in Brazilian history.

      A lot of times teams will stick with an established, but aging team one cycle too many, but usually that’s when they’ve been exceptionally successful, like Spain in 2014.

      Brazil should definitely be looking to develop a new young core so that they’re ready to go for Copa next year, which will prepare them for 2026.

    Uruguay has such a talented team. Araujo, Nunez, Valverde, Ugarte etc. They will be tough to beat for the top teams.

    Brazil don’t have a plan. They shouldn’t be building around Neymar. Historically, those Brazilian superstars don’t age well. They currently don’t have a consistent 9. It seems like Luis Fabiano was their last real 9.

      With all due respect but they will probably be overhyped and fail. The level of talent in Brazil and also Italy is at an all time low rn.

    I love how in everything Brazil post 1/3 of the comments is why Alisson isn’t starting it also seems to be from people that aren’t brazilian. Crazy that this is happening.

    I don’t think Brazil would have won with him, since our team just sucks in general and the on’es that shuldn’t are sucking ex: Vini and Gabriel Jesus, but they could have drawn or a 1-0 instead.

    No one gets scared of Brazil anymore, Cameroon and Morroco showed that. Brazil is not scary anymore… I will way again, Brazil won’t win any more WC until they get an new Ronaldo or Ronaldinho.

      Doesn’t work like that, brazils biggest problem is mental in my opinion. The pressure seems to break these players in the biggest moments.

      Oh is that all? They just need to get a new all-time great attacking player?
