There are a couple, like Neymar and Oscar, also players that were not regular starters such as Bernard (although his career is derailing and who knows how good he will be in 4 years).
But it is. That team wasn't that bad. And the 2014 brazilian team isn't so bad too. This game as terrible because noone was prepared for that game.
They didn't look any better against Holland. I'd go as far to say they looked the same as when Manes was manager.
the 2014 is probably our worst WC team ever. The 1966 team had a worse campaign, but those were 58-62 champs, the issue there was age, not quality.
They were destroyed. There was no chance for them to play well after that lost (7x1). They looked bad because in the semi-final and after they couldn't play calm.
I figured we lose to Holland after that thrashing by Germany. No way we was going to recover mentally from that in about 3 or 4 days. The game could of taken a week later and we still would of lost by the same scoreline.
Right in the first minute I saw us pressing high and told my friend "oh sh1t, Scolari didn't change the game plan, we are screwed". I didn't have any time to think if we had actually won, Scolari would have reinforced that the Germany game was completely caused by the "apagao"...
