Bundas, Bribes and Brazucas - The Official Brazil FIFA World Cup 2014 Thread

The good news for Ghana is that at least they played better after and before the first and last goal

Atsu needs to learn how to shoot

Beckerman needs to step up against portugal.. i kinda felt like he was out of place. Is daniel williams not in the us squad?

Nah. Seems like Jurgen stopped fukking with him as soon he transfer to Reading. I hoped he doesn't do the same to Boyd if he goes to Wigan.

I rather play luiz in DM. Paulinho just floats around half time and get half chances other then that he doesnt do anything else

That Dunga squad was one of the best defensive team

He just fukked up by not having a plan B when when Kaka was injured and could no longer carry the counter attack and it came back biting against Netherland. I still believe that squad wasn't gonna lose to Spain

On the other hand, I think Phil needs to insert Ramirez in the lineup. He also needs to drop Hulk

That's basically saying the same thing. If Ramires comes on, it'll be for Hulk.

it is what it is

for those that want to obsess. realistically draw against portugal and it'll take something ridiculous to not go through.

Any way you want to slice it, the objective is clear:

DON'T LOSE TO PORTUGAL. Do anything BUT lose to Portugal.

This is Klinsmann's chance to shine in terms of tactics. Portugal is a predictable team. Their only plan is to play down the left and feed Ronaldo. Everyone knows that. Jurgen knows that. So how is he going to deal with it?

You think he should leave Paulinho and Luis Gustavo and add Ramirez? I'm guessing in that case you would slide Oscar in Hulk's role, but I'm wondering if Hernanez might not be a better option for that

Beckerman didn't play that bad today although I saw one instance where he dribbled himself into trouble in our own third and ended up conceding possession that ended up being a chance for Ghana. For the most part, he was stout and cleaned up his own mistakes when he made them.

Danny Williams was on route to make the final 30 but injury doomed him(as it has this entire cycle). He was legit poised to take the last DM spot(away from Beckerman/Edu).

I'm assuming Klinsmann has a negative bias on Championship players. Same reason Brek Shea didn't make the 30 man roster(along with his behavior at Stoke/Burnley).

Whoops. I thought Ramires/Hulk was the sub he made last game.

But yeah, I think Oscar is intelligent enough to play on either wing.
