who thinks Brazil is over rated? i personally cant stand them?

Answer 1

i am not with you on that...i do think that they can be beat...but they do have the most talent in the world.

Answer 2

Brazil only became THE superpower in football because of our mentality. Everybody in here has kicked a ball, even if it was just to see why everyone likes it. When, let's say, 95% of a 150million population has dreamed about being a football player, you know you'll find the hidden talents. We are able to find the best of the best because everyone is trying or tried. In other countries, I'll use the US as an example, someone who could be the monster of football is playing basketball or baseball, he'll never be found.

Plus our teams play 2 to 4 championships every year, so they are always testing new players, these when found are sold to big european clubs and then the club managers (not coaches) steal most of the money, and hire a bunch of new players to see if he finds another gold mine.... heh... now you also know why our local teams sucks even being the source of the best players.

So it IS the best, you like it or not our poor country is the only one with infrastructure to keep suplying our national team with top players for a long long time. While the others don't value football like we do, we'll be the best forever since we'll always have more and more talented players being discovered.

If you all thought about it, you would see it is not coincidence the country is so successful in football, nor is help from FIFA or referees, it is a long term strategy that is giving it's benefits.

So with all this, a 5:0 victory is considered a failure if not done with grace and style. Now with Parreira as the coach, I'm not surprised the team is not doing shows, that (and being overly defensive) is his way of leading a team, he wants them to play an objective and not good-looking game. The team is only offensive because almost all players are, that coach always concentrate on defense.

You all say we are arrogant, but the typicaly 1st world arrogance towards the 3rd world countries is what prevent you all from seeing that we indeed have the stronger team. Our last important match was a 4-1 against Argentina on the confederations cup final.

I always root for the team that is playing better (when I'm neutral), and that the stronger teams face each other, just so I can see a great game. Now this "I hate that team because they win too much" is just childish.

If we think we are the best, it's because we are still waiting for someone to defeat us on an important game. When the pressure is strong and the stakes are high, we are the team that was able to calm down and impose their game.

Answer 4

I hate Brazil- Most people cheering for that know nothing about football and wanted to sound like they know a lot so they pick Brazil (band wagon team). Watching ESPN with the announcers praising Brazil, " I love Brazil because the world loves Brazil" who comes up with this crap.

GO FRANCE KICK THEIR @SS!

Answer 5

Me neither..they are kinda like the Yankees..They must have the best players and what not...Everybody is so crazy about them.. Yes I know soccer is a religion in Brazil, but some other team needs to step up to the plate!!

Answer 6

They arent over rated....They kick ***....they play the game for the love of the game sand thats how they win...There is such good chemistry on the team...They have won the past 5 championships and it looks like they are on their way to #6...Ronaldo just broke the record for goals scored...Ronaldinho is ony going to get better then he already is.....His market value is $100,000,000 dollars....Kaka is the unsung heros of this team

Is brazil really that good? YES

Answer 7

I do. I really hope they will lose on saturday against France.
Brazil just put the final nails in the coffin of the so- called jogo bonito. What a shame!

Where is the Brazil of 1982?

Answer 8

most everyone on brazil's bench besides the keepers would start on any other team not to mention all the players from brazil playing on other teams

Answer 9

It's rather hard to class them overrated when they arguably have 3 of the worlds best players on board, a history of experience, and wins, as well as solid coaching. It appears so far in this world cup they have only been playing hard enough to win.

Answer 10

I think they are.

Ronaldo, fat and slow.
Adriano, lucky,
Ronaldinho, nothing so far.
Dida.... HAHAHAHA....that's a KEEPER???

and, look at WHO they've played:
Japan, Australia, Croatia and Ghana.
Ghana should have won that match- two CLEAR offside goals, by Ronaldo and Adriano should have been disallowed, but noooooooooo, why? Cuz, it's Brazil, and FIFA have to kiss their butts- thanks to the IRON-MAN rule of Joao Havelange (FIFA Prez for....ever, it seems, before Blatter, his stooge, took over).

VAMOS ARGENTINA - los mejores futbolistas del mundo, y todo lo saben.... Tevez y Mascherano donde juegan? en Brasil.... hehe....xeneixe a vida!
Maradona = THE BEST, EVER!

Answer 11

Too much hype on Brazil. But it is good for punters who are putting their money in this world cup. :)
