I dont know where to talk about this, so it will be in this topic.
Brazil is now playing Sweden, with the main NT.
The team: Gabriel; D. Alves, T. Silva, David Luiz, Alex Sandro; Romulo, Paulinho, Ramires, Oscar; Neymar, Damiao.
It's not far from the team that will play in 2014 Brazil WC. It sould be the same team with a different GK, Marcelo on the left, maybe Pato for Damiao.
In defense, we are set with T. Silva, D. Alves, Marcelo, some of the top players of the world at their position.
Romulo is a good DM, not great, but good enough. Not a big difference between him and Lucas Leiva. He's 22 I think.
Paulinho is also a good CM, very dynamic, active, good passing, presents himself in attack constantly. Another good, but not great player. He's 23 I think.
Other playes to take into consideration are Dedé, who can become a very good CB. Hernanes as a backup midfielder. On the bench also the likes of Ganso, Lucas Moura, Hulk, Pato (or Damiao).
In Brazil there are some up and coming young players u don't know yet, like Bernard of Atletico Mineiro (19yr old, left winger, same position of Neymar), Marcos Rocha also of Atletico Mineiro (22 yrs old right back), Adryan of Flamengo (17 yr old, classic skilful playmaker), Wallace of Fluminense (18 yr old right back), Fernando of Gremio (complete 18yr old CM), among others. These guys could step up and be part of the NT at the WC in 2 yrs.
So my question is: what do you think of this new generation of players? Will they actually become WC (Neymar already is IMO)? And more importantly, can they win WC against Messi's Argentina and the great teams of Spain and Germany?

the biggest problem is that there is a gap between this generation and the last one. The likes of Ronaldo, Adriano and Ronaldinho $#@!ed it all up with their careers, and Kaka simply disappeared, not being able to provide a smooth transition to the new kids. The following generation of generation of Diego, Robinho, Vagner Love and Luis Fabiano was big failure.
So these new young fellows started playing in the NT with a huge load of pressure on their shoulders. Neymar is the biggest name of the NT team since he was 18... it's not easy man. And there's a WC coming here. in 1950 we had the biggest disappointment of Brazilian football history, losing the final to Uruguay 2-0 in front of almost 200.000 people in Maracana. And it's been 2 WCs lost in 4-finals in a row now. The pressure is just absurd.
