    I wish we had Diego costa in our line up. He is a beast ( a ronaldo nazario kind of CF who applies physical strength to steer clear from his markers ) . But i hate him a lot because he is a traitor. This guy joined Spain in 2014 because he must have thought that he can easily be a world cup winner because of Spain's squad strength .

    A full fit costa > firmino + Jesus.

    I don't even like the blue socks tbh I'm happy that we're able to play in yellow blue and white twice in this group stage. I hated it when FIFA defaced our uniform via forcing all teams to wear contrasting socks and shorts.

    Never really like the blue as well for some reason.

    As far as Thiago Silva, I still think he is the best defender we have but there are mental aspects of his game that should be criticized.

    He wanted out of that third place game against Holland was well. Pulling Robben's shirt as the last man with 3 min into the match. That and the yellow card against Colombia running over the goalkeeper seemed like contrived attempts to conveniently stay out of potentially embarrassing matches.

    The last time Fagner played for us he wasn’t that bad to be honest.

    Apparently he took a huge dip in form. It might not be a problem tomorrow, but going forward ... ugh.

    If it dire enough, Tite shouldn’t hesitate to put in Marquinhos there.

    From the 98 semi final against Holland? Damn, I thought he started off well, but got exposed later in the game, changing what we could do going forward.

    Don't think this team in Costa Rica compares to that Holland team, so I don't feel as uncomfortable. Although, that RB position has been a sore spot for years now, even with Avenida Alves.

    Lots of critics in Brasil against Neymar and Tite!
    Mostly pessimistic about our prospects in this World Cup...
