I don’t think they’ve been great defensively but typically he’s being targeted for that clearance. Hope he gets an assist or goal to shut them up personally.

Matt1892 Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 I don’t know why they played him RCM as he isn’t very good there, we seen that when Longstaff was out. Plus Brazil are such a cumbersome team, there isn’t any zip in their football at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was making runs into space but no one bothered using him it was always get it to vini. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Boyo Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) Joelinton off on 67 minutes. Did look a little off the pace for getting back helping out defensively, but thought he kept his shape mostly and got forward when he could, but they mainly worked down the left. Unfortunately he will be remembered for that clearance but as mentioned, it was a cracking goal and there were other players at fault as they continued to score.

Geordie Boyo Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 I hope so. Senegal are strong and physical team to play against. One of those if he doesn’t it’ll be to our benefit, but he deserves to be in there whether he starts or not in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Boyo Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) Bruno was a bit naughty there like right on his ankle all though he did make the most of it. they just got stuck in back with a challenge there too on him.

Geordie Boyo Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) They all just seemed to trample over him too whilst he was down .

Flip Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 Problem with Big Joe is that Brazilian national team football doesn’t really suit him. He’s not really suited to play against deep sitting team as his best attributes doesn’t shine through. Definitely done enough to be an option off the bench, but Bruno is the one that should start next to Casemiro. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Boyo Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 Brazil arguing they should have had a penalty. Kinda looked like he had his arm sticking out, which blocked the ball. Senegal get a penalty where he just dived over their keeper. 2-4. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBottle Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Just watched the highlights. It’s a thoroughly mediocre side in Brazilian terms - in my lifetime, the c.1990 Brazil side was as bad as it got. We all love Joelinton - but let’s be honest, he doesn’t get near most Brazil sides from our lifetimes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erikse Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Joelinton is a decent CM, but currently i feel he lacks a bit at CDM. To me it looks like he's not really used to that position. I'm sure he could be trained to be an excellent CDM aswell though, if needed. This guy keeps evolving! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think with Martinelli, Neymar, Rodrygo, Casemiro and Raphinha back in the team more quality will be added. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 (edited) Brazil have had far worse teams in recent memory than the current squad. The current squad with everybody available has far more quality and depth than the one on home soil in 2014 for example. I actually think on paper it's better than any squad they've had since 2006 (which although strong on paper, was full of aging stars from 2002). I don't think Joelinton should really start for this current side, though. But he's probably good enough to be in and around the squad just due to his versatility.
