		<description>andres is yet another example of a loser with low self-esteem who constantly compares argentina to brazil without understanding that in doing so argentinias simply confirm that they live by envy, envy of brazil. brazilians moved on already. ah the sadness of being argentinian.</description>

		<description>As much as I hate it, I am rooting for Argentina to beat Brazil (and humiliate them too)...Otherwise, nothing will be done.</description>

		<description>I have been a Brasilian supportor since I was 5 years old, when I saw my first world cup....1982.  That was a magical year and the Brazilian team that year has captivated my imagination since, and have been a true supportor since.  

I always take pride when others say a country plays like Brazil.  An example was back in 1996 EURO where the press called Croatia as &quot;Brasilian of Europe&quot; a title given for teams that play GOOD, ATTRACTIVE, FLAIR, CREATIVE and ENTERTAINING football.

Not anymore.  The Brazil team under Dunga is very very poor.  Even the Brazilian Team of 2006 WC coached by Carlos Alberto Pereira (though lost in QF), play acceptable flowing football.  Like what you have correctly pointed out, the current team has zero creativity and flair.  Brazil spend most of the time making passes between the center backs and defensive midfielder.  What makes it worst is, Dunga plays with 3 defensive midfielders and the two fullback (so vital to Brazil attacking flowing games) are oftened instructed to stay back. If the fullbacks of yesteryears are asked to play like this, the world will not see the likes of Carlos Alberto, Junior, Roberto Carlos, Cafu, Jorginho just to name a few. I am very surprise by this as Jorginho (now assistant of Dunga) was a first class full back but he has not say nothing of this tactics of restricting the fullback.

This tactic is seen in the full team as well as Olympic team.  Against Belgium they were crap, but they kinda come good against New Zealand.  But come on, Brazil use to play GOOD, ATTRACTIVE, FLAIR, CREATIVE and ENTERTAINING football against team like England, France, Germany and not some countries without footballing heritage. I am writing this after the latest game against Cameroon where Brazil won 2-0 at extra time...GOD, THEY WERE REALLY CRAP!!!!! That really broke my heart to see the once mighty Brazilian play the way they do.

I do not think Dunga do not have talent in his team but something is very wrong with his negative tactics.  

Dunga was a fantastic player (in fact, he was one of my favourite players in that position) but as a coach, he sucks big time. For the sake of Brazilian football, CBF please do something.  Please do not deprive the future generations the wonders of Brazillian football and the joy it brings!</description>
