pearcey_90 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Has Fernandinho underperformed for Brazil? Would always think he’d start over Casemiro. Like Casemiro in what he brings, but the guy can be a high liability and it’s not like the guy who could replace him is worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
westy8chimp Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 A decent squad and I really like Coutinho and Neymar... but this is not the exciting Brazil squad I'm used to. Need to hope there is a new batch of wonderkids capable of a quick rise to the first team. Vinicius Junior perhaps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of club form I'd drop Casemiro for Fernandinho too, but like you, no idea about national performances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best 11, with the players in the squad would be similar to the current starting 11: Alisson; Danilo, Marquinhos, Miranda, Marcelo; Casemiro, Paulinho, Coutinho, Willian, Neymar and Gabriel Jesus The main difference is that Marquinhos is a bench warmer now. And Willian is not certain to start as Fernandinho may start instead of him. -- Brazil better beat Norway this time! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
