I always have that feeling. But Brazil proves that you don't need defenders or tactics to win. Then again, Greece proved that you didn't need players...
This is definately not true for WC '94. Carlos Alberto Parreira has been successfull in taming these individualists and his tactics works so well with Brazil. And Brazil's three defenders at WC 94 were almost flawless imo.

    for me is simply, if you have the best attack in the world but not a decent defence no team will win a major competition.
    Winning the world cup is a major event is it not and Brazil won it without a decent defence, did they not? Real Madrid have won the Cl on 3 occasions recently without having a real decent defence. barcelona won La liga and their defence is not really that decent is it?

    I am no fan of Capello as you all know as i just do not feel he has the nous to make this Juve team to be as good as they can be. He has the players , believe me, he just does not know how to use them properly
    You see teams like Arsenal, Chelsea, and most of all Liverpool and you just marvel how they are able to produce performances which are astonishing when you consider the personnel they got compared to Juventus esp Liverpool.
    What Rafa has done there is very commendable and they won the Euro cup mainly because of him
    Milan 3 Liverpool 0, that was the first half score and by brinnging on harman who completely nullified the very influential Kaka, they with a bit of luck, not only went on to equalise they won the cup
    Fast forward to Milan vs Juve
    Milan 3 Juve 0 , in the first half, what does Capello do, even after having knowledge that Milan have just recently thrown away a 3 goal lead in the final of the biggest cup comp in the world, he should know that if they conceded 1 goal early they will be very nervous, but what does he do, he just folds his arms as he is wont to do and brings on subs too late and we could only score 1 goal

    Well after watching Chelsea and Mourinho, how many times does he makes substitutions at the right time to change the game in his favour?
    But thats not the main reason i wrote this thread, i feel we could copy Chelsea in 1 crucial aspect which i feel can help us, they have Gudjonsen whom is very technical and underated but not the best finisher in the world, he was playing as a striker but even though he does score goals he is very wasteful, so what has Mourinho done, he transformed him into an attacking midfielder
    Now who does Gudjohnsen remind you guys of, well to me its Zlatan, he is very skilful but very wasteful as a striker, he hardly scores tap ins as he does not have those instincts at all and he is prone to be offside but he is to me too valuable to drop, so why not play him in the midfield, he has the skills and is far more creative than anyone in our midfiled roster barring Camo
    Whats the point in having Emo and Vieria when we have no creativity in the midfield
    I say we play Zlatan in the midfield with Vieria, camo, Emerson, and then you could have either Mutu or dp partnering Trez

    Or if we are so much better than the oppostion play 3 at the back , and play zlatan, camo, nedved, emerson with again Mutu/Dp and Trez and at least we will be able to totally dominate the likes of Sienna not just outscore them
    maybe you are right in some things, but Cappelo is great
