BOB Posted August 4, 2010 Rule Number 1. Play the 'Wonderkids'...so far Mano Menezes seems to have done just that as he's already called up tons of youngsters. it is very import to build a strong squad and keep steady side in the long run, but when the world cup time arrives and there are new players just crying out for a call up, be bold and take a risk and let them play. Leaving Neymar and Ganso out of the squad was a crime against Football Socrates said that, however, the good news for the Brazilian fans is that Mano seems determined not to repeat the same mistakes...Let's hope he doesn't. Rule Number 2. Hire A Psychologist...and how they could've done with a mental guidance in S.A. Luiz Felipe Scolari had his very own lady shrink on the road in 02 World Cup to help shield players from the pressure, the result...they came away WORLD CHAMPIONS. "She had me thinking of my team not as footballers, but as men." said Big Phil, having grasped the importance of making sure his players didn't shrink like delicate flowers when things got tough. Rule Number 3. Drop those players who don't perform for the Selecao, for too long Brazilian coaches have picked players who don't reproduce their sizzling hot club form for country. If the big names can't perfrom as they do for their clubs, it's time to retire them. Rule Number 4. Get an experienced coach, playing at home, in a country obbsessed with football, will heap an extraordinary amount of pressure on the shoulders of any manager and only time will tell whether Mano is the right man for the job. "You have to get a seasoned coach, one that lived the good and bad times of the job, so he can master any situation" said Clodoaldo, mazy-dribbling midfielder from the 1970 winning world cup side, you hear that A&T. Rule Number 5. Book unfriendly friendlies, as the host nation Brazil will skip the qualifications, so it's imperative to play games against the world's best so the new generation of Brazilian players get a test of true world class action. Canada & Zimbabwe should be thanked for their past services, but in order to get the team ready, the samba boys have to face Argentina in Bombanera or Spain in Hostile Mastella. Rule Number 6. Build a team leader, Brazil's unparallelled disintegration in the second half against Holland could've been different if the team had a cool-headed leader, something the Selecao will have to consider for in 2014. "After Holland game, each player wanted to take matters in their own hands. This would never happen with a true leader on the pitch" said Felix, 1970 Goalie. Rule Number 7. Ban the touchline catwalk. No suits or floral shirts, please. Brazilian coaches have to don the good old Selecao track suits like Prof. Zagalo and Big Phil and worry only about the team's performance. every time a Brazilian national team coach dons a shirt and tie, like a European coach or creates a new catwalk trend, like A&T's boy Dunga did with his ill-fitting silk shirts...it's disaster both on and off the pitch. Rule Number 8. Don't pick injured players, "I wasn't 100% fit" has been the excuse quitely muttered by a number of Dunga's men on their return to Brazil. the question is, then, why were they there in the first place? Since Pele retired, there's not been a player worth taking if he isn't fully fit. clearly Kaka was not anywhere near 100% fit yet fully fit Ronaldinho, Adriano, Ganso and Neymar were delibrately left behind and since it's unlikely that the next Pele will amerge in the next 4 years, the motto for 2014 should be simple, If you're not fit, stay at home son. Do all that and Brazil might just stand a chance of glory and A&T will have a field day in my absence because I'll quit SOL. This was of course the courtsey of Four Four Two Magazine.
