Very soon all of s.america will copy brazil's style of play and if they dont they will just keep getting thrashed by brazil...either way its win-win for brazil football...CMON DUNGA!!!

I look at Brazil as an asset for the entire football world because they are the only team that is good and entertaining to watch. I saw the Brazil-Chile match and I don't even know what team Brazil is anymore. Their defense was clearly not good enough to stop great offensive team, they never possesed the ball, and their offense is a total mess. Please just look at all three goals, first one was a set piece, you can't really say that second goal was from a good playmaking, third one, Fabiano just simply outphysiqued the defender. None of them are from good plays. The biggest asset that Brazil has is they have tons of playmakers with good ballhandling and they try to play like Italy??? I root for Brazil for a entertainment, tradition, AND result altogether. If I want to see a blue collar football, I'll root for Italy. I’m scratching my head seeing how Brazil had become recently.

He has nade some very good points and some people will never like the style of Dunga because he is a pragmatist. However when he played for Brazil we seldom lost. I remember the time in 1998 when he screamed at Bebeto for not doing his job by standing near the ball when an opponent gets a freekick to prevent them taking a quick one. You have seen Argentina punish opponents with that many times. However while I agree with Bruno on some of the points he has made. I disagree on some things and thats what make this game so interesting. Don’t be so hard on Mr Romani.

Everyone loved Dunga when the team destroyed Argentina in the Copa final. Did you even watch the tournament? Argentina looked like gods and Brasil looked bad in losing their first game but got stronger as the Copa progressed. Remember, Dunga has a talented squad but there are a lot of players who are average. By average, I mean they are undistinguished in this squad. This squad has no Ronaldo or Rivaldo to lean on nor do we have a back four as good as 1994. Dunga may not be a genius like some previous national team coaches but I like his style and intent. Hopefully, the players will come together in top form and win for him. This team needs to prove to the world in South Africa that they are the best. Right now, I see them as contenders, favorites, but not head and shoulders the best as in 2002. Let's give Dunga a chance (and of course the players) and see what happens.
