Brazil really ain't been the same since 02.

The "Football Powerhouses" look average

Is the gap closing?

I think so, the world is smaller now, people travel more, Ideas are easily shared. Look at Costa Rica, Navas is the starting keeper for Real Madrid. 'smaller nations' are fielding players that play in worlds best leagues

How do they collapse like this after being in good form for years?

A big part of Brasil looking like world beaters in WCQ was Gabriel Jesus taking a lot of the load off of Neymar. He hasn’t done a damn thing so far.

How do they collapse like this after being in good form for years?

No clinical striker. Has been Brazil’s issue ever since Ronaldo retired. Adriano fell off,Pato was an injury prone mess,Luis Fabiano was good but inconsistent. Hopefully Vinicius Junior flourishes well in Real Madrid.

I’ll never understand why RM is so keen on replacing Navas. He always shows up when it matters.

You know why, because it's Real doing Real thangs.

Neymar is good, but to me the moment he joined Barca, let me know he really ain't about that life. He is closer to everyone else than he is too C dot and Messi. But don't get it twisted like Messi he has unrealistic expectations just because of who has gone before for his country. And Neymar generally plays well for Brasil, he performed in 14 and his pen vs Germany to win the Olympic shows he can rise to the big occasion. But playing with Messi has really phucked him up because he wants everything going thru him like Messi had at Barca.

He is best of the bunch below Ron and Messi, spesh with Xavi gone and Iniesta finsihed now

Yeah very good for Brasil, think 3rd all time scorer already
