The title should actually read what fails Brazilian soccer? Clearly, with all its unsurpassed
talent, Brazilian soccer should have no ailment. Jonathan Wilson's article in the Guardian exposes
Brazil's fatal flaws when competing against teams which individual talent may find tough to
overcome.

Brazil coach Mano Menezes has arrived in Argentina ahead of the Copa America looking to give the
Seleçao a new identity,and the fans a reason to cheer, after the bitter disappointment of
last year's World Cup.
Having taken over from Dunga in August, Menezes is heading into his first tournament as national
coach with little doubt the next three and a half weeks will be taken seriously.
Tomorrow in the Serra Dourada Stadium in Goiânia, these two juggernauts of world football will
clash once again. Their last meeting just under a year ago in the World Cup in South Africa was not
a classic, but it was memorable for the Dutch fight back which saw them book a place in the
semifinals.
Dani Alves (seen here when we were in Barcelona!) recently gave an interview to FIFA where he
spoke about playing for Brazil and this weekend's crucial game against Man United. Here are a few
quotes worth reproducing from this man who has gained more haters (!) than he has supporters this
season.
Kenny Dalglish has hailed Lucas Leiva for his transformation at Liverpool and says it is no
surprise to see him playing the Dunga role for Brazil.
While Lucas, 24, has received the consistent backing of Liverpool managers, he has struggled to win
over the fans since signing from Gremio in 2007.
However, his impressive performances over the last year have seen many supporters come around and,
after he won his ninth cap for his country in the friendly against France this week, Dalglish feels
he fully deserves international recognition.
Reports from Italy suggest that Liverpool may have to brace themselves for a summer bid for
Brazilian midfielder Lucas. Both Fiorentina and Napoli are confirmed admirers of the player and
chatter from La Viola suggests they intend to match Napoli bid for bid if Liverpool make the
midfielder available.
The Saturday Skills #3 Ronaldinho is a post from: Just Football
The Saturday Skills is a new feature on Just Football, in
which we bring you a tonic to the detailed commentary, analysis and thought-provoking debate that
we usually provide for you here in the form of some of the most jaw-dropping, aesthetically
beautiful football skills we can find.
This all comes back to Liverpool
in the end. Promise.
In the end Lionel Messi did what Lionel Messi does, but for the longest time yesterday's
Brazil-Argentina match was a study in the attacking fullback. Of course, the attacking fullback has
its roots in Brazil, and one need look no further than Liverpool fans celebrating their acquisition
of "Brazilian" right back Glen Johnson at the start of last season to see the lasting mark this
South American country has left on the position.
Being lazy and full of things to do, I wasn't able to post about this weekend's action. So many
things happened at once, Ray Wilkins being forced out of Chelsea, Chelsea losing to Sunderland 3-0,
Manchester United scoring two late goals to equalize against Aston Villa, Real Madrid grinding out
a 1-0 win over Sporting Gijon, Barcelona and Villarreal both playing a fantastic game of football,
and of course, the Milan derby.
After leading Brazil to what was probably their worst ever tournament on the World stage, former
Brazil coach Dunga has for the first time added his voice to the Neymar debate urging the teen to
snub Chelsea for Juventus.
Now, correct me if i am wrong. Wasn't Dunga the same person who refused to include Neymar in his
23 man squad for the World Cup finals?
Before the World Cup I posted a page about the new coming star Michel Bastos with a lithal left
foot. He was a left wing, but Dunga gave him the left back position. Apparently, it was a
disaster,...

QPR's Asia Tour Concludes (with another win!
El argentino Lionel Messi, considerado el mejor jugador del mundo, participará en el
partido altruista 'Copa Mundial Maya 2012' del 16 de junio próximo en Cancún,
caribe mexicano, junto a otros jugadores del Barça como Mascherano, Pinto y los hermanos Dos
Santos (Jonathan juega en el filial, Giovanni es un ex azulgrana).
Se presentó ayer en conferencia de prensa la Copa Mundo Maya que se realizará el próximo 16
de junio en Cancún, Quintana Roo. Se jugará un partido con figuras internacionales en busca de
atraer la atención a nivel mundial del Caribe Mexicano y promocionar el turismo. Se hará un
partido de Estrellas de América vs Estrellas de México en el estadio donde juega el Atlante,
teniendo participación Damián Álvarez y Lucas Lobos,
respectivamente.
La Copa América se pone seria. Continuó la igualdad en la mayoría de los partidos y es que
los tres grandes (Argentina, Brasil y Uruguay) tuvieron que esperar al tercer partido para ganar.
Eso sí, aparecieron los goles, por esa misma urgencia de triunfo. Los de Argentina con Messi
armando el juego y una mejor coordinación, los de Colombia con el oportunismo de Falcao, los de
Venezuela con un gran corazón y sed de victoria y los de Brasil con una mejor puntería.
With Ronaldinho back in the Brazil squad, today's match against Argentina will definitely be
worth watching. The 30 year old play maker has been included in the team for the first time since
April 2009 when he last featured for the Selecao in a World Cup qualifier.
Considering the recent history between these two sides, one would pick the Samba boys as the
favourites to win today's match, however, La Albiceleste will not guarantee Brazil a
forthright victory.
This shot of Andre Villas-Boas subtly reminds us of a similar pose
Dunga held two years ago when Brazil were losing to the
Netherlands en route to the World Cup semi-finals! It's one that screams
"Estou desesperada!" (I'm desperate!) .
Five years ago Ronaldinho was considered the greatest footballer in the world by many critics.
And this month the Brazilian midfielder is expected to finally make his long awaited return to the
Brazilian national team. Newly appointed head coach Mano Menezes recently stressed that the AC
Milan man "can add value in a sector where we must still evolve.

After being left off the World Cup roster and not suiting up for Brazil since April, 2009, the
former FIFA World Player of the Year was called into the national team by coach Mano Menezes for
next month's highly anticipated friendly against Argentina in Qatar.
Brazilian ace Ronaldinho could make a surprise return to the Selecao squad for their
upcoming friendly against Argentina. When questioned whether he would include Dinho in his squad
for the friendly, Menezes left reporters guessing. However, he did not rule out calling up the 30
year old Milan forward.
The five players on Mexico's Gold Cup roster who tested positive for clenbuterol were re-tested
last Friday, and all five had their tests come up negative for the banned substance.
The Associated Press reports that, according to a statement released by the Mexican Football
Federation, Guillermo Ochoa, Francisco Rodriguez, Sinha, Edgar Duenas and Christian Bermudez have
asked that a "B" test of the initial positive sample, taken on May 21, be conducted.
When football was still a contact sport Souness was the complete midfielder. The fact he was one
of the most gifted modern-day British footballers is often overlooked as he was also able to
unleash tackles of real bite and venom.
