Cos there's no room for both him & Coutinho with Neymar in the side & they're seemingly incapable of learning from the simply stupid mistake of making their team all about him like they did in the last WC.
World Cup day 9.

Almost all the Brazil shots have been from distance.
Considering the close footwork & passing ability they possess in the midfield & upfront that is staggeringly inept.

Coutinho init
It's not just Coutinho. You expect him to do that & he scores enough of them that it's understandable.
However all the others are doing it. That Neymar run into space was the first time they tried to play the ball into the box to feet that I remember.

In fairness he was fantastic last World Cup til he had his back broken.
Firmino > Jesus
Bereft of intelligent movement and incisive passing of guess
He has gone from Tagliatelle to nuddles
Just then, turned in the box, made space, three men to look & lifted it in just ten yards away instead of playing to feet or dribbling to find a shot.
They're not playing to their strengths at all.

I couldn't believe the hype around them pre tournament, they've fuck all chance of winning it but for the first WC in years I can't see any stand out sides that look capable.
Braszil have no chance though
The Germans will win. It won't be at all pretty on the way but they know how to win a tournament ugly which is more than any of the other sides.
It's extremely difficult to go back to back at a WC, I can't see them doing it
Same.
I thought they'd be top 4 in the tournament, but not winning it
But this isn't great like
What the fuck is Neymar? What is he even meant to be doing? It is patently obvious they'd be a better team without him in the side, certainly in this form.
I like my nuddles hand-pulled.
Not tried them.
I'll add hand pulled nuddles to my food bucket list. Which is already extensive.
So far Croatia and Belgium look the best balanced sides.
I honestly can't remember a single good move from Brazil that hasn't been started by Coutinho.
Just then
The odds on Coutinho were so shit I didn't bother putting odds on him as first goalscorer like I originally decided to.
Those odds don't look daft at all now cos he's easily the most likely to score based on what we've seen so far.

That's happens when you play someone who isn't fully fit. I can never remember it doing any side any good in a tournament yet it repeatedly happens.
Would have been better dovetailing firmino and jesus
