Top Club Team Vs Brazil

[ludwig]

Let's say Juventus, Valencia, or ManU versus the WC champion Brazil national team. Who wins?

There is a big difference in quality between the likes of Man U, Juventus and Valenica Man U and Juventus could both beat Brazil on a good day, Valencia would not beat Brazil on Brazil's worst day.

I was gonna say Barcelona, but it would have been surreal watching Rivaldo playing on both sides.

And why do you say that? Would you say that Real Madrid could beat Brazil? If so then you have to say that Valencia could beat Brazil.

Actually the current Valencia squad could beat Brazil on a good day. It is my own bais that does not have them up there with Real Madrid and Barca. I retract what I said.

You are putting Brazil on a pedestal as if it's THE unbeatable team. It's a good team and definitely topclass, but let's face it... just like the Germans they usually need quite some luck to make it.

No team could beat the Brazil team,Brazil got the better players than these teams and will outfloor them.

Maybe... maybe not.

Are you kidding? Brazil would murder these teams. Let's face it you guys are loking to discredit Brazil in any way possible. If England with a full squad could not be Brazil with ten men, why would ManU, Juventus, or Valencia. The best players in the world make their national side. It's like an all-star team for the country. FIFA has put Brazil in such high regard when they lost to france in WC 1998 and the next week were still ranked higher than them. Or when they had so much trouble qualifying for the WC, but FIFA still ranked them the second best team in the world. I'm not discrediting these club teams, but seriously think about it. You couldn't really field a better team than Brazil has..too many top notch well experienced players. How many times do they have to prove that they are the best team..period.

in 1994 they were about to lose to Holland until Branco fired in a free kick. Lucky escape for the Brazilians.

In 1998 Holland were denied a penalty as Pierre van Hooydonk was pulled to the ground in the penalty box at a 1-1 score. Eventually Holland lost the penalty shoot-out, but everyone agreed Holland had Brazil by the balls that day.

************ Brazil... they're the Germans of South America as far as I'm concerned. Although they DO have footballing capacities.

I have that game on tape, which proves that when someone is determined to hate, he/she can make any situation look favorable for his/her side.
"Had them by the balls"???? Brazil was leading that game from minute 48 to minute 82. It was Kluivert who came up with a late goal to send the game into overtime. The van Hooydonk scenario is called "selective memory". Ronaldo was tripped twice in the box on absolute breakaway situations and nothing was called. If that's your definition of
having someone "by the balls" then whatever!

What a fascinating classification! SOmeone's a bit bitter... all that luck, are you sure that Brazil would be the German's of South America or the Irish?

Real Madrid could top Brazil. This has been discussed before. Real Madrid could top Argentina as well. They are, IMO, the best team in the world... and to think they may wind up with Ronaldo.

Real? Juve? Barca? Hand puppets. The Galaxy could chew their faces off like the weasel on the cover of that Frank Zappa album.

In football when we talk about luck or an ugly goal... it's German.

Almost any top club side COULD beat Brazil. What a daft premise. If the might of Ecuador can do it, then most of the top seeds in the Champions League sure as shitsticks could. That's could ...

I would even go so far as say SHOULD!
Because the very elite club teams bring in talent from from across the globe. They are not relegated to the talent pool of a single country like ANY national team.
